Learn a language with Livemocha


Good news everyone! I was told about website that helps you to learn a new Language. You start off at a novice level and work your way up through the levels of grammer and verbs. The really good thing about this is that at the end of every lesson is a small oral and written test that is corrected by other members of livemocha. I find it very easy to use and if your looking to learn a new language in your spare time check it out.

THE BENCH
not to exclude nature too much and trying to build up a suitable excuse I take place beside you on that rotten wooden bench silently I trace my finger through the air sketching out what i have done your eyes begin to fill with tears on that dirty wet bench things don't seem as bright I'd love to coat you in sweetness but before i get a chance you've already fallen to your knees and begin to pull on your heart's strings not to exclude nature too much you offer me your machine dripping with blood, oil and sadness I place it on this beautiful bench

I've just seen who we have been drawn against for thee Euro 2012 quallifying campaign and i couldn't be happier! I think it's safe to say that after a 24 year absense we will finally be on our way to the european championships once again. In case you haven't heard, we've been drawn against Russia, Slovakia, Macedonia, Armenia and Andorra. With the top two teams quallifying directly to the competition, things are looking good for Trap's army!

In other news, George Lee has done us all a favour by leaving Fine Gael and Dáil Éireann.....hooray!!!

Old McDonald Hid a Castle

A farmer who built a castle in his field was this week ordered by the High Court to knock it down. Robert Fidler (honestly thats his name) from Surrey, who built his castle in 2002, has vowed to fight this decision and intends to take the matter to the European Court of Human Rights.

Good Luck fighting the Man brother.

Bucks coming to T.V.?


I've heard rumors over the weekend that the brilliant 'Hardybucks' is finally been made into a television series. I can only hope that these rumours are true because it will give us a welcome break from the crap that RTE put on the air, with the exception of 'Stone Cold Sober' of course :)


The Castletown boys have well and truly earned a spot on the television. They started making the series over a year ago and have featured on RTE's storyland competition. It's rumoured to start sometime in Febuary.


Here's to future viewing!

Go on the Bucks
