Happy Birthday Joey.Hope you have a great day....Herself will have something nice cooked for you when you get home and if your a real good boy maybe a cold one or two in the fridge🤣

I had a President base station at home.I cant remember the model but it had 240 channels.I used to do some skip talking and got and sent QSL cards all over Europe.I used a BIG STICK antanna.It caused a lot of TV interfearence.Back then all the TV channels in Ireland (there were only 6 channels)shut down around midnight so I could only use it into the small hours...Happy days indeed... Paul

Back in the 70/80s when CB radio became popoular in Ireland the President AR7 was the biggest seller followed by Cobra and Motorola.Like the US nobody uses them now.....Sadly Paul

After doing some research Iv discovered that Mack did offer a Mack branded CB radio.They were made by Pana-pacific with Mack branding....... Paul

Dont blame her wanting that truck...its fantastic... Paul

Wow...hows that for a great must have if it genuine.... Paul

Guess iv a keeper too.Mrs Cruiseliner doesnt bother me when I spend on the Cruiseliner.She just says Boys and their Toys...... Paul

It does suck growing old but it beats the alternative.....🤣🤣🤣 Paul

My brother just said itd look fantastic parked on his driveway!!!! Paul

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.... Paul

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.....
