Re: Summer migrants

They don't migrate as such but spend the winter months at sea and only return to the islands to breed during the summer months. Had fun watching them dive bomb further out from the shore, after he smacked my line he flew back over looking annoyed and perturbed, like he was trying to figure out what...

Re: The Greatest Rock Albums ever?

I very rarely listen to master of puppets, kill em all is my favourite, probably ...and justice after that, RTL has some filler and the production lacks bite, still a cracker though

Re: The Greatest Rock Albums ever?

Greatest albums ever tend to be boring threads but here's one you won't usually see

Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime. Every second of that album is perfect, not a bum moment.
Master of Puppets -same could be said I suppose

Re: Devil themed tunes

Oddly enough, you'd think the various metal genres would be packed with songs that have "devil" in the title but they don't, given the preference for referring the quare fella his more formal title of Satan, or Lucifer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjH6SS0dcxE https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Re: Ireland's Worst Tourist Attractions

Now it's not the worst tourist attraction, in fact it's pretty remarkable. But finding out that the outside of Newgrange was almost entirely rebuilt, and not without controversy, was a bit disappointing. I remember visiting it as a kid on a school trip and seeing a bit of outer wall that had been p...

We should take none of them at all, lets live our comfortable lives here and condemn innocent European women and children to death. In fact why not fly all the refugees back into Ukraine.

I see a Russian news agency reported almost 10,000 Russian soldiers dead and 15,000 injured. They then deleted it and said they were hacked. But it would seem that across the board the consensus is that their losses are substantial. So far it looks rather disastrous, so clearly Russia has switched ...
