The Second Story
by Kathleen Donohoe
My heart beat slowly. From its pace, the doctor said I was probably a boy. In 1972, women weren’t awake when their babies were born and there were no ultrasounds. more...

Dear Friend, I know that this is an unusual platform for us to be discussing this Kind of business but the situation has necessitated me to use this Medium to communicate you for now. But let me introduce myself to you. I am Miss. Elizabeth Mark, the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance department of my Bank. In my department I discovered an abandoned sum of US$14.5M, (Fourteen Million, and Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) at our head office Accra Ghana, that belongs to one of our foreign customers, who died along with his wife and only son in a plane crash of Alaska Airlines Flight number 261 which crashed on 31 January, 2000. The owner of this account is Mr. Morris Thompson an American and great industrialist and a resident of Alaska. It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this Business proposal to you and for our bank to release the money to You, for more detail send me an email in my private email address( e.mark11@yahoo.com or elizamar
 

This is a scam and she should be banned from IrishAbroad. Shame!

Thank you IrishAbroad!
by Pamela Boyd on 06 May 2009 00:05

Besides asking your readers for the best of Ireland, I want to thank IrishAbroad and Aer Lingus for these wonderful tickets.

Though I have been to Ireland many times, my husband (3rd gen Irish) has never been, and I am looking forward to going this fall with him.

Thank you again, this was a wonderful surprise! Go raibh maith agaibh!

Traveling to Ireland
by Pamela Boyd on 06 May 2009 00:05

Well, I went and did it and won the Irish Abroad tickets to Ireland on Aer Lingus for Mar/Apr.

I'm asking any of you (especially the other winners of the fantastic prize) to let me know the best things you've seen/done in Ireland.

The Irish and the French
by Pamela Boyd on 02 February 2009 21:02

 

  The French President is sitting in his office when his telephone rings.'Hallo, Mr. Sarkozy!' a heavily accented voice said. 'This is Paddy down at the Harp Pub in County Clare , Ireland . I am ringing to inform you that we are officially declaring war on you! We voted to reject the Lisbon treaty!'
'Well, Paddy,' Sarkozy replied, 'This is indeed important news! How big is your army?' 'Right now,' says Paddy, after a moment's calculation, 'there is myself, me Cousin Sean, me next door neighbour Seamus, and the entire darts team from the pub. That makes eleven!' Sarkozy paused. 'I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 100,000 men in my army waiting to move on my command.' 'Begoora!' says Paddy. 'I'll have to ring you back.' Sure enough, the next day, Paddy calls again. 'Mr. Sarkozy, the war is still on. We have managed to get us some infantry equipment!' 'And what equipment would that be Paddy?' Sarkozy asks. 'Well, we have two combines, a bulldozer, and Murphy's farm tractor.' Sarkozy sighs amused. 'I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 6,000 tanks and 5,000 armoured personnel carriers. Also, I have increased my army to 150,00 0 since we last spoke.' 'Saints preserve us!' says Paddy. 'I'll have to get back to you.' Sure enough, Paddy rings again the next day. 'Mr. Sarkozy, the war is still on! We have managed to get ourselves airborne! We have modified Jackie McLaughlin's ultra-light with a couple of shotguns in the cockpit, and four boys from the Shamrock Bar have joined us as well!' Sarkozy was silent for a minute and then cleared his throat. 'I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 100 bombers and 200 fighter planes. My military bases are surrounded by laser-guided, surface-to-air missile sites. And since we last spoke, I have increased my army to 200,000!' 'Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!' says Paddy, 'I will have to ring you back.' Sure enough, Paddy calls again the next day. 'Top o' the mornin', Mr. Sarkozy! I am sorry to inform you that we have had to call off the war.' 'Really? I am sorry to hear that,' says Sarkozy. 'Why the sudden change of heart?'
'Well,' says Paddy, 'we had a long chat over a few pints of Guinness and packets of crisps, and we decided there is no fookin' way we can feed 200,000 prisoners .

Why is Ireland so appealing?
by Pamela Boyd on 26 October 2008 23:10

Why is it Ireland is so appealing to us from America? Granted my ancestral roots are in Ireland, but every time I visit, I want to stay! The people are great, the land is green, it's surrounded by water, I love it!

Is there anyone wanting to move to the Emerald Isles if the election does not go their way?
