    British officer: You're seven minutes late, Mr. Collins.
    Michael Collins: You've kept us waiting 700 years. You can have your seven minutes.

    [As the British flag comes down]

    Michael Collins: So that's what all the bother was about.

        Not fitted at the moment, however there appears to be mounting for something under the chin, left of centreline(looking forward)



        Can I ask all users to put their photos in the IMO Gallery, and link them from there, instead of attaching same. Doing so would discourage "Media" types stealing the photos and using them in their "newspapers"

        • Arrival of AW-139s

          The two helis landed in the Curragh earlier. Got a few photos but having difficulty uploading them. Anyone who wants to see them just send a pm of your email address.

            • So We won't be seeing them fly over South Dublin on their way to the Don? Pity.

              Best get back to me studies.

              Thanks for the heads-up Ed.
              If you have to do it, you always have to do it right. Either it makes a difference, or it’s good practice so that when it does make a difference, it gets done right.

              • Seen the pair of them fly over my house in Johnstown yesterday around 2.10pm..... the sound of the engines had me running for the window. Nice sight to behold.... now if ONLY we can convert those useless electronic voting machines to something useful.

                regards

                  More Helis maybe??
                  What are you cackling at, fatty? Too much pie, that's your problem.

                  • You....

                    read my mind Odin. Much more useful to have another 4 of these machines giving real value to the country. Rather that than having those voting machines sit there in storage and only possibly used ( if ever) once in a blue moon.

                        It is my understanding that the Army Ambulances at Curragh Camp occasionally help out in the area around the camp, I dont know how often or for what type of assistance.
                        They only have one air ambulance kit for the EC135

                        I went into an Italian restaurant and ordered dessert and they gave me tiramisu and a blindfolded horse and I said No, I said mask a pony (mascarpone)

                          • Something Interesting(in my opinion) about the new machines. One is an AB139. The other is an AW139.

                              There is no problem that cannot be fixed with high explosive.
