How 'bout back in the late 60's we WALKED EVERYWHERE.....now everybody is getting taxis....Lazy Bunch! Jeez, I even remember going to a disco in town and walking home to Harmo....OK, I did have a motorcycle for a while but until then...... Even on my last trip I walked from the MA's house in Harmo every day to Beaumont Hospital......Ok, I admit, I got a taxi back (Just a wee bit older now)....to The Horse n Hound.....LOL....Repeat next day (Maybe a different pub though) ------------- BrendanFella IRISH DIPLOMACY IS....The ability to tell a man to Go To Hell so that He looks forward to making the trip. |
