It would appear so.
With construction planned to start before the end of March they must be pretty sure of getting the license from the CAA
So Paul, is this a relocation to Dublin or a global expansion leading to world domination from a Funzie corporate stronghold?
In Dublin for my 60th celebration and this bar is round the corner from my hotel.
what bar?
Guinness can do that.
Admittedly it is usually pink elephants but bars could be a thing.

Some recent correspondence from a guy on Facebook whoās family used to live in my cottage.
My 3xGreat Grandfather Garth Petrie was born and died there 1794 to 1874.
My Great Grandfather William Petrie was born there in 1871 and I believe that they were kicked out in the clearances in the early 1900ās. He was married in Grangemouth in 1904, so at the latest by then they left the place. The family certainly worked that croft from maybe 1750 to around 1900.
The Petrie family tree which lived in your house contains none other than Christine Perfect!! Howās that for a story! I never met her but sheās in the family!

Opened it in a new tab.
Aye, they still have those weird customs *here too. The dish is called Reestit Mutton and I wouldnāt feed it to the girls, let alone eat it myself! Fucking awful.
*We are having our Christmas party at the Island Hall on Saturday. Iām not going though because cunts are organising it, Iāve been invited to an āalternativeā dinner party arranged by someone elseā¦
Island politics eh?

I read this as Reshit Mutton. Even your correct spelling sounds haggard & unappetizing.
In a nutshell.
One of the worst vaudeville acts that never took off.
Haggard ended up in a awful relationship where his wife battered him to death with a sandal

Well you could try serving it in a dish.

One of the crofters here lived and worked on Colonsay before he moved here. Heās always going on about how much he enjoyed it and would move back if he had the chance.
Social housing would be no good for him though, he would need a working croft.
Holidayed there in 2019 beautiful island, not a lot to do when it rained though
