Heres two strange stories from Ireland that make me go hhhmmm... One night my brother and I were returning from visiting our sister who lives 14 miles from us.My brother was driving.At a crossroads near where she lives a lady in a green evening dress appeard in front of us.My brother jammed on the brakes and I crossed my arms in front of me fully expecting her to come through the windscreen then nothing...There was no way to avoid hitting her.we pulled over examined the car and the road but found nothing out of the ordinary.When we told our sister she went white with fear.She explaned that a lady in a green evening dress was killed at that crossroads some years back and we were the third people to tell her the exact same story....... At the same crossroads theres the ruins of an old church dateing back about 800 years.Back then priests who passed away were buried under the actual floor of the church they served in.The story goes that a priest who was very much disliked passed and was buried under the floor in the usual manner.Shortly after his passing there was a terrible storm.The next day locals found the church badly damaged with one wall of the church moved in about 5 feet excluding the priest from the floor of the church.Experts recently examined the remains of the church with ground penatrating radar in an attempt to prove or disprove the story.They found the bottom of the wall matches the profile of the wall it was said it moved from and the moved part of the wall has no foundations and should not be able to stand where it is.The part of the wall that moved is about 18 foot high 30 feet long of solid cut stone and would weigh a few hundred tons... hhhhmmmm Paul

Double what Joey said.looks amazing... Paul

Happy Birthday Bob.Enjoy your bash....Have that cold one on me Paul🤣

To be honest for many many years I was against the death penalty but after some of the crimes I heard over the last 10 years im not so sure its a bad thing anymore.Just yesterday about 100 miles from from us a guy killed his father for drug money just after getting out of rehab....it beggers belief....

I would have loved to see those "English" busses in Chicago.Im sure theres an interesting story behind how they ended up there.i really enjoyed our time there as I do love music and visited a blues club or two.Blues is among the finest music in the world. Yeah every city has its problem areas.About 5 years ago we had a "disagreement" between two drug gangs here in my home town which resulted in 10 guys getting shot and a 17 year old being killed and cut up...... We couldnt move without being stopped by the poilce but they got a grip with it. Sh1t happens everywhere..... Paul

Back in 2007 we enjoyed a fantastic holiday in Chicago.We enjoyed the sights and sounds of that city.However on our last night there we ate at a restaurant about 10 minutes walk from our hotel.As we got to the hotel we saw a large number of police cars ambulances and fire trucks passing by.We thought there must have been a bad accident somewhere.Next morning after packing we went down for breakfast and on the TV news we found out that 4 guys were shot in the restaurant we had been in.If you think about the time taken to call 911 and for the vehicles to get moving it could have been only 1 to 2 minutes after we left the restaurant that the guys were shot.....Mrs Cruiseliner got very scared but Id still go back to Chicago..... Paul

Have to agree Joey fresh eggs are super.Up untill recently we just bought eggs from the supermarket.When we got the use of the shed for the Cruiseliner that all changed.The guy whos farm we are on is also an egg farmer.He has 6000 birds in two sheds but has 14 acres fenced off so they can run around with the sun on their backs clucking and doing what hens do!!!.The farmer gives us a a couple of trays of freshly laid eggs every so often.They are fantastic.....

Fuel protests in the 4th day now and Ireland is in somewhat of a lock down.Gas stations are running out of supplies.Fuel is being allowed through for emergency services and emergency vehicles are being assisted through roadblocks by protesters.The army has been put on standby but not deployed yet.Polls show 92% support for the protesters.Artical 6-1 of the Irish constitution has been invoked.This allows the President to call a new election for a new goverment if more than 250,000 people sign a petition.....Getting very intertesting here!!!!

Just hit 11.38 US dollars a gallon in Ireland.Truckers/Farmers and Plant hire companys going broke daily.Massive protests in many parts of the country.All roads into the capital city,Dublin,are now blocked by trucks and farm equipment as well as other major citys and fuel import depots.Goverment acting like gombeens( Irish slang for fools).They are talking about calling out the army to move the blockades as towing companys have refused to get involved.The protesters have a lot of support from the people.Theres talk of civil war if the army is deployed.Interesting times here at the moment.... Paul
