I believe in the holy trinity
of whisk(e)y, wine and beer.

My living room is my church, my wine rack my altar, my mini-fridge my tabernacle, a camel light my holy communion and Pinot Noir the blood of the one true God.

I believe in the holy alcoholic crutch and draw closer to the divine with every sip.

Booze gives me succour in my time of need. It heals me and smites me, often in equal measures.

All of lifes answers lie at the bottom of a glass. It is best not to be disappointed when you learn the answer is simply that you need to go fill your glass.

You people...

Down with this sort of thing.
Your mother will wash your mouth out with soap you dirty heathen feck.

(And I take it the holy tabernacle was in very good use Saturday evening? My head is still in bits.)

watched it in town, lad - the atmosphere was absolutely brilliant!
The city was electric for most of the weekend too.

Never felt more proud of a bunch of sweaty meatheads in me life :)

I made it into town for the homecoming
but then sat in a pub because it was a bit too crowded out on the streets. The recession is over for the green flag manufacturers, that's for sure.

@CHCB
You're gas!

At 3pm, you were ambivalent, at 5pm, curious and by 7pm, a full-blown 'Irelands Call'-ing zealot so much so you even went back for more on Sunday?

Ha! I'm a fairweather fenian.
I didn't really go in for the homecoming, I was going for tapas and a pint or two. I only realised there were 17,500 people out in force when the bus was diverted off Dawson St.

That rugby thing was some game, mind you (but didn't get me in tears like when Ireland went out of the World Cup on penalties in 2002).

sure doesnt that speak volumes about the Irish...
we are more moved in defeat than in victory.

Spare a thought...
A mate of mine was in a Galway boozer when the telly died with 10 minutes to go - he ended up calling me for a commentary as all the nearby pubs were full to the rafters.

My cries of 'shit' 'fuck' 'Jaysus' and 'Welsh bastard' were apparently of little use in relieving the agony until the could locate and plug in a radio.

your team could have stuffed the fucking welshies a little bit better though?
not because I care about how england do, but because the welsh, as a nation, are the worst winners and the worst losers ever and need to be thoroughly stuffed at every opportunity by anyone who gets the chance.

Don't be asking me for any post-match post-mortem
I was trying to work out why they were allowed to pick up the ball AND run with it.
