Darren Hanlon @darrenphan.bsky.social · 08/06/2025It's very easy to complain about the price of sporting events, concerts etc these days but have to say im pleasantly surprised at cost of tickets for the URC final next weekend. €70 for 2 adults and 1 child incl fees. Bit of a bargain thanks to 10% discount on the URC site. #Leinster #URC #Ireland 081
Darren Hanlon @darrenphan.bsky.social · 07/02/2025Just joined an newly formed over 35s soccer team, and in the group chat - manager asked what positions we play. Someone actually said "False 9", and I don't think they were joking 🤣🤣🤣 Either a huge troll or...? Might have to consider saying I'll be the "Regista". #Ireland #Soccer #SundayLeague 000

I posted on Facebook about what a fab year I’d had, donned my best lashes and set off for my last gig of the year: singing pop to 80 people at a pub in Essex. Easy, easiest of gigs and paying sweeeet dollar. 32835183
