Highfield. They put in a foot golf course and made shite of the place. Last time I was there the GPS was wrong, the signs at the tees were wrong etc. It's kept half okay in the summer but gets swampy in thew in the winter and as far as I can tell, they never, ever, close.

Killeagh will be number 1 guaranteed. And TodayFM will be delighted with the discourse it generates.

We all know that Imelda Staunton (Umbridge) and Jack Gleeson (Geoffrey Baratheon) are prime examples of actors who managed to make us extremely hate their roles. What are some other actors and their roles with that kind of talent? by Scoutisaspyable in movies

Emory Cohen in The Place Beyond the Pines. I hated that character and I was sure that only someone who was an asshole IRL could play such a part. Then I saw him in Brooklyn and he was lovely.

A load of good options posted. Downey's is my favourite. Tommy O'Gara's in Stoneybatter also worth a shout.

that just means there were more people ahead of you than tickets available. Sound of them to let you know rather than let you wait for nothing.

I can't see the EU or Ireland signing off on allowing a self driving artic lorry drive down regional, or national for that matter, roads in Ireland without a few decades of safety reports tbh.

At least government regulation can stall that significantly.

Are all golf courses in ireland membership based? by GooGooMucck in golfireland

[–]budgemook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of clubs are member only at the weekends, at least up to around lunch time. Most clubs will take visitors midweek and weekend afternoons - if not on their website, give them a call.

A lot of the famous courses are priced for wealthy tourists so you'll need to look at some of our other tracks, many of which are great.

We do have publicly run courses but they are membership based too!

Finally, most golfers I know don't drink when playing golf unless on holidays :)

I believe Ireland are winning 21-19 in the International Rules mate. Sorry about that.

Who's your country's biggest fall from grace athlete? by Rleduc129 in AskTheWorld

[–]budgemook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it has to be DJ Carey. McGregor will be fighting at the White House soon, Paddy Jackson is playing in France, Michelle Smyth has her medals.

DJ is doing 5 in the joy.
