I think I saw some of it a few months back - I just don't think he's a good actor - he's quite one dimensional - I'm amazed he's as successful as he is.
I find most non-Irish actors have a hard time putting across a decent Irish accent - a lot of the time it strays into Oirish territory or at worst Darby O'Gill. I have read that the Irish accent is one of the hardest to do - I'm trying to think of someone that has done it successfully and am...
It seems I'm 100% Irish - my brother has been tracing our family tree and so far there haven't been any outside influences - he's gone back a couple of hundred years so I'd say that's that.
I saw this poster for the first time the other day - a real sign of the times we are living in. Imagine that this problem is so rife that a poster has to be printed up:
Seriously - I mean - spitting? That has to be one of the scummiest things you can do.

Thanks C-Dot - I'll let you know how I get on! :) I have a few shoes in different US sizes - 8, 8.5 and 9 so I'm praying that they are "my" 8.5!!!!!!!!
Well, they arrived this morning (that was quick!) and they are a perfect fit (sorry C-dot!) - really comfy with some nice toe cleavage!!!!!!!!
I really hope these fit *fingers crossed*- H by Halston shoes - so sparkly!!!!!!
This red linen dress from Saks which is a perfect fit (so nice to not have to get alterations done for a change!) - I like the little bow at the back:
Thank you! We had a lovely evening - a delicious meal in one of our favourites restaurants followed by tipples in a great pub. Yesterday to continue celebrations we had some lovely NZ Astrolabe Pinot Noir.
My French is pretty good but could do with polishing up my grammer - I used to speak a little German but have forgotten most of it - I have also pretty much forgotten how to speak Irish which is a shame (I blame the way it's taught over here).
However, I hope to work on my French and then...
Any pine furniture or flooring - we're stuck with both at the moment as we're not moving to our house until next year (and are renting in the meantime) - I hate them both more every day - every cat hair, drip of tea, piece of fluff, crumb - all magnified.
BananaBomb - thank you! I love your finds - the travel case is gorgeous and looks in immaculate condition too.
Mrs Chaddsley-Corbett - thank you too!
Wahine - so sorry to hear about your shoes - they are the one thing that I am reluctant to buy online as you just don't know with the...
Sorry - I'm reading what you wrote - again this time properly - it was pretty early when I read this after a late one - yes, I know what you mean - there were red herrings thrown throughout however thinking of past horror movies I figured it had to be the most innocuous of the bunch...
