The urban-rural divide.
Queues in Dublin City supermarkets today. On Wednesday, the last day of the hunting season, we shot a deer in rural Wicklow, hung and skinned it. Venison for a month. The food of kings. #sneacta

Hardcore.
Any excuse.

Elaine Byrne. The person who wrote a book on corruption in politics. And then got Michael McDowell to launch the book. Sharp as a pin.
you of course have proof to show us that McDowell is corrupt?
Some people who live in the country, in common with some people who live in remote areas of other countries, try to convince themselves that they are more self sufficient and less reliant on the state for their basic needs. Or that they live a more environmentally friendly lifestyle. When, in fact, the exact opposite is true.
This comment tread is just another example of how woeful broadsheet has become. Lowest common dominator personal attacks
Urban rural divide my toned waxed backside.
Sick Byrne.
I hope some stray buckshot takes out a tooth.

Who knew eating venison makes you a hate figure?
Who knew eating venison was a crime?
Jesus I have it on the menu tonight and rabbit
Maybe a baying mob of city folk in a torchlight procession like a Frankenstein film baying mob are heading to west cork
We really are Satanists us country folk with our 4x4s and burning our turf fires

Each to their own
Nathin’ wrong wi’ it
“Attention seeker goes looking for attention; succeeds, to a limited degree” – fixed your headline for you there, BS
But the article’s not about YOU Rob!
It’s not about you either princess, despite your best attempts.
What’s this got to do with you mildew? Thanks
I have everything to do with it.
I’m the only princess round these parts. Now kindly feck off and find your own kingdom.
Speaking of stalking…
Ami watch out – they don’t like a mouthy woman in here, especially the other ‘women’
You looking for me there anyway
not at all frilly
you’re a woman not a ‘wimmin’
Sound
Just hurd’ “mouthy women”
Ya know yerself
‘ twas only natural like
Typical frilly Keane has to make anyone else’s post about her in some way. Get a life!
Shur’ how da’ ..CK would you know what I get up ta
Or what I’m like
You’re not here a slushy weekend
Unless….
Sure you act like you own the place! And what’s this writing like you have a bit of turf stuck in your mouth? What’s that all about? Rawdly Doyle is it? Deluded
Sucker!!!
You’re right. You caught me out.
I’m actually a man in a dress and a rather fetching wig.
Foiled again.
A rather fetching man then, if one may say so.
Why thank you.
The beard can be distracting, I know, but I’m working on it.
personally I like the beard
And male genitalia no doubt
Very original.
personally I like the male genitalia
noone has a problem with mouthy women. It is the stupid,delusional & aggresive that the ” women” have a problem with. Ami is like Leather Jacket Man. Best to ignore or she will bore you all to death
Who the fupp are you? Thanks
So many of us are asking same question about you, pet.
What nasty little hole did you expelled from? Why is poison less vitriolic than you? Do you even have a soul?
I don’t think Ami is a woman….
*rubs chin*
She is. Said so herself. She spends her time attacking other women. It is really fupped up. Ask Lily.
I saw the stalking of Lilly. Mean as.
.
Fair enough so, Ami being a woman. Didn’t fit for me, that Ami is.
Ami b = anyone = Warden of the snort = Pat Kenny’s wife
All his previous accounts have been banned, he’s most likely been banned off the journal hence he trolls bs.
Lace curtain Lilly is no shrinking violet. Spends most of the time here attacking travellers and looking down her nose at all others. As for this jusayinlike pondlife … hard to know what their angle is … gets some weird kicks anyway
Not as weird as you running 3 accounts in this thread..
I have never attacked travellers you absolute moron troll.
Doesn’t like being called on her BS
Hates other women…
I could go on
“you absolute moron troll”
Poor Lilly. Innocent bullying victim
You’re no match for anyone here, Ami, but don’t let that spoil your delusions.
Myself and the missus wanted to do that to the neighbour a few years back
No offence Pat but could you please rein in that missus of yours?
Some of them haven’t a lot of time for her in here.
I’m sick to the back teeth of both of them. Thanks
talking to yourself troll
At the exhaust pipe again
Paranoid conspiracy weirdo
And PS why doe it take hours for your comments to appear? Must be banned yourself are you? No surprise there
George Hook material.
To be fair, deer have to be culled, so shooting is allowed. Unfortunately, culling of journalists is more badly needed, but it’s illegal.
Did she own the firearm? Does she keep it locked up? Dumb advertising on per part.
Who would want to be a woman in public life going by the comments on this.
Nastiest comments are from women . ( Ana and Ami )
I would agree with that
in general like
go into the Frilly archives and see stuff that would make Terry Mc occupy sum’ting
All about frilly again – well done
You betcha
But watch how I don’t go crying ta the mods looking to get contributors banned and deleted
Or put together a herd
To do me durty work
Or go over ta’ Twitter and elsewhere and snake up on lads
Or cry troll
I stand alone
On me own
Yea fair play
You’re an independent woman alright
Ami is not a woman. He’s a pathetic attempt at a man masquerading as a woman for his own demented reasons. The kind of guy that clears a room faster than the bouncers in Coppers.
The only gal masquerading as a woman here is you lace Curtain Lilly
Don’t feed the trolls Lilly. With a bit of luck, he’ll soon discover his toxic kin over at the journal.ie.
That’s how it is is it? If you don’t conform to the politbitchburo here it’s because you “wandered over from the journal?”. You people are not well
She’s not in public life. She writes for a little-read newspaper and has a Twitter account.
if people are going to eat meat they should see an animal being killed.
it’s a lot more honest than pulling meat out of a plastic wrapper from the shop.
I really dislike hunting for sport but if you eat what you kill then it’s fair game (pun very deliberate)
Aye, this.
Don’t have a cow man, have a half a cow :)
I remember we’d get “a side” of a cow from Uncle Jack. Half a cow.
The cow, picked from a field weeks before, sometimes I’d have seen which one it was.
And sometime later after the slaughterhouse, and the meat hung, it arrived.
The kitchen became a meat factory with carving knives, saws and the swish-swish rhythm of sharpening heard over the old tube Hoover. There’d be four or five of us working to label, seal with twist-ties (feckin’ things were a pain!) as we vacuum-bagged pieces of meat with the Hoover. Filling a chest freezer with half a feckin’ cow :)
From field to plate man, that’s how it should be :-)
+ nose to tail
Okay not everybody does it by any means, but shooting deer and storing the venison isn’t particularly rare, either. Someone dropped us off a cut a while ago, we made a lovely stew.
If she doesn’t like the urban crowd then start writing for the Farmer’s Journal.
On your bike Byrne, training for the 70.3 tin man.
it was said above but ill echo it, deer need to be culled as if we do not control their numbers having no natural predators would decimate the countryside, this is coming from a nature lover
