A place to chat about anything thats not football related. Most of the threads in here are completely pointless which is why people keep coming back and back. As the forum title suggests, feel free to make any post you want on any subject you wish. It also has Adult jokes (so be warned) which is the other reason people keep coming back.

Nice plucking, Ricco.


Kinross boxed in from the start. Stayed and looked strong. But, no cigar. 6th.

Anyway looks great, here's bit of useless information, I had a bar in Suffolk and my name is John, should have called it John Bar, Suffolk, miles from the sea tho.

I lived in county Kerry ( 5 miles from Listowel race course ) for 16 years but moved to the Algarve in December, I did go racing but lost interest about ten years ago and last went three years ago, I've never been lucky as you will see over the next few weeks.

My friend and former neighbor caught a bass of 12lb 9oz the only one caught bigger was from a boat that year, it was a few years ago, but Salmon and sea trout from the local river feale is what he likes doing best.

that's a big bass.
we were there for the sea fishing, although everyone else was Salmon fishing on Lough Currane, not really for me, we fished all over the Waterville. including from a boat near that rock with the monastery on top.
not the greatest time fishing but was a great laugh.
