You should have listened more carefully John! One of those who mocked you earlier got lost on Sandymount Strand, and could only find his way back to the car because his mate who was luckily with him had GPS on his phone :shock:

I'm not going to mention any names, but I think Eric should apologise to you :lol:

didnt need a gps just looked out for john 1's big head and ego, it peered through the fog light like the wonderful beam of a lazer. yep couldnt see land at one point, but still think a gps is excessive, cause the street had lights on it which could be clearly seen through the fog and you could hear the cars on the road, now before anyone says anything, what happens if there is a similtaneous black out and mass car brake down, get real !!! ah fuk i sound like boycie :wink:

sounds like you were digging at sandymount baths. if you were that close of-course you would see lights and here cars. if you find yourself a lot further from the road it ain't always that simple :wink:
and this isn't all about digging bait at the side of a road like what you are referring to.
not everyone is lucky enough to live and dig bait beside a main road so close to a city.
some are unfortunate enough to live and dig bait in the sticks where they wouldn't see a street light never mind here a car :shock:.

big head and ego what the f@@k gave you that impression
