Heard a rumour that they want Athenry FC's pitch for a major park and ride when the WRC opens.

As for lunch yesterday, I had a very nice slap up in Ardee, Co. Louth. It was comprised of roast beef, mash, roast potatoes, carrotts and cabbage! yea seriously, cabbage. A load of gravy on top and bobs your uncle. It was more like 4 O'Clock really.

Tonight I had Rendang Chicken. Ordered it from my Malaysian friends down the road. (Now they can cook) Its a Malaysian curry, but its a dry curry. No sauce as such, more like a paste. They offer it in the restaurant and hardly anyone touches it. Its not on the take away menu, but when your in the know..... I have it with sticky rice. Thats the way its meant to be served. Its fantastic.The customers in this particular restaurant think chinese food is chicken curry and chips or a fried noodle basket filled with a spicy chicken dish, if you think you're cool. The chef has his own specialties on the menu, (bean curd is great) but my man Chea says nobody is trying it except me and a few die hards

Celtic Tiger Ireland is not as sophisticated as we'd like to think.
