Evening...........it was a lovely day

Just great to watch people in recovery and have a natter before their meetings, half time and after. Thursday's a busy day. Meeting up with one of them for coffee next week.

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol - April 2017

Jackeen is a mildly pejorative term for someone from Dublin, Ireland. The Oxford English Dictionary defines it as "A contemptuous designation for a self-assertive worthless fellow," citing the earliest documented use from the year 1840.

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol - April 2017

I shall write that in my book of words not to use in Ireland.............I did have to look up pejorative.
