I am so looking forward to the Euros. To see you lot make complete idiots of yourselves, to not be able to handle your vodka, to get yourselves into fights, to get the living daylights beaten out of you by Europe and their police forces and of course your glorious failure in the football.

A GALWAY councillor has refused to apologise for swearing at a County Council committee meeting after he told a fellow councillor to "go **** himself"
Local area councillor Seamus O Scanail made the amazing outburst after he was told he was a "fe...n eejit" for thinking that cloud computing was only suitable in areas with lots of rain.
He had told the Infrastructure Committee meeting this week that his native Connemara would be ideal for cloud computing because it has heavy cloud cover for nine months of the year."
The Independent councillor said that the Government should be doing more to harness clean industries for the Connemara area and he named wind energy and cloud computing as two obvious examples.
"Connemara in particular could become a centre of excellence for wind energy harnessing, as it is open to the Atlantic. Also in terms of cloud computing, we have dense thick fog for nine months of the year, because of the mountain heights and the ability to harness this cloud power, there is tremendous scope for cloud computing to become a major employer in this region."
However his mistake was pointed out by an incredulous Cllr Martin Shiels who said that "this is taking the biscuit. I've heard it all now. You
must be a fe....g eejit to think that the cloud computing had anything to do with climate."
Cllr O Scanail took umbrage at the remarks of his colleague and called for them to be withdrawn. When Cllr Shields refused to do so, Tiernan said "go **** yourself, Cllr Shields."
Chairman Sile Ni Baoill asked for both councillors to withdraw their comments, but Cllr O Scanail was repentant that Cllr Shields was wrong and that cloud computing is linked to cloud cover.'

Connemarans a quaint and charming people ...some of them can be observed jabbering in a strange lingo which ,apparently , can pay rather well. Tourists frequently visit to observe them as interesting anthropological specimens.
