Originally from Dublin, Ireland. Moved to London and then Leeds, England, I now live in Toronto, Canada. Oh and now back again. Anyway, you can take the woman out of Ireland but, you know the rest. Basically the stuff on here will be the same no matter where I am. Ramblings and rantings about stuff, some from Canada.Some of them really do say 'eh' ~~~~~ "ascertaining the comprehension, continued interest, agreement, etc., of the person or persons addressed"

Quote of the Day.

I think I have mentioned before that we just have a basic cable package so the only channel Iain could get the England v. Portugal game on today was an Italian language one.
He watched the game with the closed captions/subtitles, which were in English.
The translation was sometimes a bit off and several seconds delayed.
They said a 3 times that one of the players taking a penalty(can't remember which one) was - arben faced. Arben faced? what does that mean?
At the end of the game the subtitles came up with this little gem:
and once again England lose on penalties
[cheers and applause]

and Portugal go on.
