I used to work in a restaurant myself but this was self-guided omadhaun behaviour. That said, my waitress was an absolute stunner. Interesting. Where did you come across an (albeit anglicised spelling of an...) Irish word ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy my egg powered crop dusting your bellzoids. Same when you park in a not so busy carpark, an someone parks so close to you they struggle to open their door. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Fitzpatrick of the Lamp Tavern, formerly of Offaly. First called me an omadhaun when I burnt his eggs the morning after we beat small heath 5-1. I've used it as an insult ever since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone has a chance to get to Plovdiv for a few days it's well worth it. My best mate is married to a lady from Plovdiv. They're always on at us to visit the place.

If the airport management think they can appease passengers with 'their asking for to much' government line then their deluded. The damage they will do to an already poorly run airport will last for years.

Etymology of the word Britain Britain (n.) proper name of the island containing England, Scotland, and Wales, c. 1300, Breteyne, from Old French Bretaigne, from Latin Britannia, earlier Brittania, from Brittani "the Britons" (see Briton). The Old English place-name Brytenlond meant "Wales." If there was a Celtic name for the island, it has not been recorded. We literally live on an Island whose name is Big Wales 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
