Conquer Club

Ages ago on the emerald isles,
Lived eight little men wearing eight little smiles.

Patrick, their leader, was bearded in red.
Amon the elder; he'd watch where he'd tread.

Flynn was a friend to the dolphins and whales,
Shaun was a dandy, in top hat and tails.

Ungus was happy - a worry free guy,
Clancy wore a scheming look in his eye.

Keagan was fancy in his coat of yellow,
While Colm had to learn to be a bit more mellow.

Their story was told in days of old,
Of how they fought over a pot of gold.

Their battles were epic, fought over and over,
Hopping around from clover to clover.

At the end of the day they'd retire to their pub,
And toast their success at the ole' Conquer Club.

So … what's this all about then

OMG -- now I am going to see pink hippopotamuses.

Oaktown and mrBenn have leprechauns in their avatars.
They're planning something for St. Patricks day, I'm sure of it.

Yuh think?

Not to be trendy but,...I think it reads better backwards.

I hate st. patrick's day.

I would be a grinch on that day, but it would require wearing green.

So excited!

My last name is Patrick, can i get premium membership

Ah yes...St Patricks day.

Yet another excuse for certain celtic races to get hammered, bemoan their lot in the world, generally make complete arses of themselves sit in circles crying over the old country while their wives slave over hot dinnes they demand with menaces, only for them to get home and fall into a drunken stupor on the couch.

Way to go.

instead of a patron saint who was a turk that never set foot in their country that couple of crusaders liked the story and adopted it as their own
think i'd prefer to be happy drunk than a plagarist
(st patrick was welsh and st bridget was cornish i know least they stepped foot in ireland)

Withdrawn due to current N.Ireland troubles

Sounds like another case of jealousy from a person belonging to a country which has no knowledge of what it means to belong.
I.E.
National dish being a curry
A National Anthem that does not have any reference to their country
A country where in some cities they are the minority
As stated by Tyche a patron saint that was never in the country
A country where most people don't know what day is their national feast day or who the "Turk" is, for that matter.

Can't but feel sorry for you Fruity but as we are a happy bunch we would welcome you to the world wide party that is
St. Patrick's Day anyway

Oh dear, another chippy celt.

but all are welcome to the festivities even the begrudgers

Well at least his signature speaks volumes lol

Whaa... why... whooah...

Rocket.

Said the fair madden princess, to her courting Knight;
"Such a tragedy it would be,
if my virgin pussy,
was lost at sea".

Said the shinning Knight, to his princess;
"If this day should come to pass,
I'd tuck my balls between my ass,
use my dick as an oar,
and row your pussy back to shore". ...

Happy Pattys' Day.

Or not, and we're just messing with everybody's heads. I'm totally digging the leprechaun avatar movement, by the way.

Shamus is watching you.

God gave drink to the Irish for one reason and one reason only.
to prevent us from taking over the world
Lack Gave Us CC to redress the Balance....

And as I fully expected some one jumps in without thinking something through and wondering if there wasn't just a touch of the kiddology.

In actual fact my Grandfather, on my maternal side, was Irish. He was the son of a pretty legendary IRA freedom fighter and poet, shot by the English. His Brother was also shot by the British, his wife killed during a raid on a safe house. My wife's Father had to leave Ireland when he was hunted by the occupying forces with a death sentence hanging over him during struggle for liberation. I am not, as you quaintly and incorrectly put it, belonging to another country, my English heritage is less than half, my greatest is Irish. I am justifiably proud of my heritage

I posted what I posted deliberately to see what the reaction would be and lookie lookie, just I predicted to myself there would be some one who would rear up. I am not jealous, how could I be? I know fully what it is to belong, my family history ensures that.

Your arrogance in assumption does you little favour. Your searching for denigration does you no favours at all. Then you wonder why the British look at the Irish with a patronising attitude.

ok, for a fun thread this is getting a bit silly

Fruitcake you sat there and actually thought
I know lets provoke someone and see what happens... Come on thats just childish!

Lord hala your just as bad for taking the Bait!!!

MODS can we remove the posts from here please as it is spoiling what was turning out to be a fun thread!

The last thing we want to do is envoke the curses of the leprechauns! we could all end up with crap dice for an age!!

Nem

I have to admit, i agree with Nemesis on this one!

Fun is meant to be that, just Fun!

if you want political debate, go somewhere else.

and the curse of the leprechauns is nothing to be joked about!
