@BCJCarter Yep

Looks like an invalid baptism. The water has to be poured on the head at the same moment as each member of the Trinity is spoken.

@DavidPGCSE Taxi Driver? Not gonna end well

I can't define cool but I know it when I see it

Heineken and Spitting Image says its time once again for the Eurovulsion Song contest in 1986

@DavidPGCSE Gone AWOL.

The boys are definitely not in the barracks

@DavidPGCSE Couldn’t agree more. Absolutely top lads. Think this fellas a bad apple and you get them everywhere

@drcrouchback I've found Sikhs in general to be an absolutely great bunch of lads but you can't have people carrying massive knives about

That's an 8 inch knife btw

@back_badger @StephenGrove19 I know him and honour his memory. I’m going to try to visit this place next month which contains a memorial to him Requiescat in pace countrylife.co.uk/out-and-about/…

I will be in the minority for knowing who Captain Robert Nairac was, a smaller minority still for knowing he was assassinated 49 years ago today. There are few of “The Disappeared” unaccounted for, but may they rest in peace.

Morning all

@scottishslander @backinyerpram She’s been listening to this on a loop

Which part of Scotland actually speaks like this?🤣 Diabolical that these fuckin weirdos get to represent the Scots because they once read Oor Wullie as a kid #Scotland #SNP #Greens

@hurl49772 @speedy_1916 Eulogies at Mass are, strictly speaking, banned. The Order of Christian Funerals (OCF) explicitly states in rule 27 that "there is never to be a eulogy". More appropriate for a wake

@speedy_1916 Well done to the Priest. Eulogies at Mass are getting out of hand. One funeral last year, 4 adults each stood up and gave 20-min speeches. The Mass ended up dragging on and becoming quite excessive. Long eulogies are better kept for the wake or the gathering afterwards.

This is shocking, Irish funerals are sacred spaces for mourning and sharing memories,we don’t put a timer on them,the people of Ardee parish need to explain and remind this Italian priest to be more respectful,cutting someone off during reflection at such a vulnerable moment shows a shocking lack of empathy and pastoral sensitivity.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ #ArdeeFuneral

@TheIrishIsraeli @speedy_1916 He’s the priest. He’d be right to apply canon law: The Order of Christian Funerals (OCF) explicitly states in rule 27 that "there is never to be a eulogy" Thems the roolz

@speedy_1916 Excuse me ? If that was my loved ones funeral it would end in a fucking riot. Who the fuck does he think he is ?

@Ersatz_F Hahaha. Perfect

The soundtrack to this is Public Enemy’s ‘Fight The Power’ played by an eight year old on the recorder.

18 for sure, probably 19.
