  2. It's a crazy situation alright. I can understand if people were away working and wanting to get back to see wife and kids for Christmas. But why stop flights and ferries but allow bus loads down from N.I. Or am I missing something Atb j
  3. Doesn't take a genius to work out what's coming down the road. No wonder the medical experts are trying to warn us so desperately. Stay safe and mind your elderly and medically vulnerable. ''One flight arriving into Belfast from London this afternoon was said to contain more than 100 passengers, according to one woman onboard. These passengers are due to travel to Dublin on a coach provided by the airline, she said.'' Sure what was the point of stopping travel in the first place so Atb j

  5. A woman stopped by, unannounced, at her son's house. She knocked on the door then immediately walked in. She was shocked to see her daughter-in-law lying on the couch, totally naked. Soft music was playing, and the aroma of perfume filled the room. "What are you doing?!" she asked. "I'm waiting for Mike to come home from work," the daughter-in- law answered."

  8. Yes, they did. That was their custom then. Atb j
  9. The archaeological research project is focussed on the Winter Solstice phenomenon at the 5,200 year old Newgrange monument. Over the coming weeks, either side of the Winter Solstice on 21/22 December, the movement of the winter sunlight coming through the roof box into the passage and chamber will be scientifically measured and monitored, to determine how the beam of dawn light interplays with the chamber as we move towards Solstice and then past it.
