Re: Bambie Thug - - Ireland's Eurovision enty..

It was good to watch back in the day as a kid 70s/80s and then to see Johnny Logan win it. Then I got to stage in 90s where you could watch to see some nice young wans from some European country or other strutting their stuff. Of course then they went and ruined that when the ones that looked like n...

Re: Jeffrey Donaldson deletes all his social media

Looks like PSNI felt his collar and he is looking at charges for at least sexual assault and maybe rape.
Oh and a 57 year old woman was also arrested for aiding and abetting additional offences.

Is that his missus by any chance?

His comments about the Gardai were fair.

Re: WTF Lidl?

Look they are Lidl so really they are Einhell. They are fine for light enough stuff, but not real trough stuff. Einhell may be German brand, but IMHO they are not as good a quality as Bosch, even the green stuff, never mind the blue. Then if you want to go even better German quality tools you go for...

Without bothering to follow this story very much there are parallels here with the Republicans in NI always supporting the Palestinians while the Loyalists always support Israel.

Drilling one single hole hardly counts as "prolonged use" though, does it? And using a masonry bit to drill through masonry is not exactly "heavy duty" either. For the most part, I find their stuff to be "reasonably priced for what you get" ; sometimes you get great va...
