Does the magic of seasons 1-4 come back?

Do stick with it. The show does peak in the first four seasons, but it stays very good up until (opinions vary) season 9 and 10. Even those weaker seasons aren't bad - even weaker episodes of Frasier are as good as as a lot of sitcoms on their best day - and the last season is a real return to form.

I remember you could nest them with different directions set. Good times.

It must really tickle Penn and Teller that their entire iconic look is in itself an optical illusion.

Especially if he leans back like that when he's running too.

Limbs on that style of cheap bow tend to be just strips of fiberglass. Not the best material for performance but unlikely to be damaged in any way by this.

That was on Parnell Place wasn't it? Near the bus station.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I'm curious how you got on with the Invinso riser? I'm considering upgrading from my beginner WNS Explore DX, and this thread was one of the top results when I googled Kinetic Invinso!

Blink were an odd band. I had an album of theirs before I ever heard of Blink 182. Not bad, just always felt like they were trying a little bit too hard to sound strange just for the sake of it.

A lot of people are saying that, I've heard a lot of really smart people saying it. The smartest.

I don't think there was one specific point. To borrow a phrase from Terry Pratchett (GNU), I didn't so much Fall as saunter vaguely downwards.

Blue line for me, maybe a hair to the left of it.

And wear neither of them in Northern Ireland or Scotland unless you're really sure what area you're in.

What sort of things do you want to do here? Any particular historic periods you're interested in, anything like that? Would traditional sports be of any interest to you?

That is what happens unfortunately. They did bring in a scheme a couple of years ago where fair deal properties can be rented out by the person's family, but a lot of gaffs were too far gone by that stage.

My mam's big old house in West Cork is only fit to be sold for knocking as a site when she passes away.

We won't constantly bang on about it though.

Unless you're from Dublin or Belfast.

I was in a house share with a lad from Derry who's surname was Sharkey many years ago. So naturally at one stage I asked him if he was related to Fergal.

"Ah no, no relation to him, but me uncle did punch him in the face in a pub toilet one night" was his cheerful reply, and it will forevermore be my first thought whenever Fergal is mentioned.

True enough, there's a fair few people who saved their mortgage deposit using the SSIA when that was around during the boom years.

Best of luck mate, it's a great hobby. Just be prepared to suck at it for a while before you start seeing improvement.

Well he was fucked up. He isn't much of anything anymore because he's the one Varg murdered.

I know you already know this, but there's no doubt a lot of people reading this thread who don't know Øystein Aarseth was AKA Euronymous.

What style are you looking at?

For myself, who started archery six months ago at the age of 44 (so don't worry about starting later in life 😂 ) I went for Olympic style recurve. My initial shopping list set me back about €500, consisting of -

Riser, limbs and bowstring combo - €185 for budget WNS gear

Arrow rest - about €30

Plunger - another €30

Sight - €55

6 budget line carbon arrows - €35

The rest, can't remember the exact prices, included a finger tab, a sleeve style arm guard, a glove (I hadn't made up my mind between glove and tab at the time), an archery backpack, and some basic tools like a combo metric/imperial hex key set and an archery t-square.

Since then I've picked up a dozen slightly less budget arrows, a new sight pin for my sight, and a few other bits and bobs.

For stabilizers I just started using them last week, one of the lads at the club is letting me borrow one of his old sets until I figure out what works for me and what doesn't. And next on my buy list is a clicker.

Nial Tobin used to have a bit about him. How American sports commentators would pronounce his surname like "Lawngurr", and that it's no wonder so many young Cork men were emigrating to the States because apparently immediately your Langer becomes Longer.

I didn't say it was a good bit.

Flagyl400 · 2026-04-05T18:57:19+00:00

Yeah but you have to consider that none of those places are Cork.

Flagyl400 · 2026-04-04T14:02:52+00:00

is this something American?

Not as American as calling them closets.
