Ahoy the Fightin' Irish!

Post by Lawndart » Mon Mar 03, 2008 6:13 pm

Ahoy the Fightin’ Irish!

Lawndart be the name, and burying WWII vintage aircraft be the game, hence the name. Well, not intentionally anyways…. :oops: But I digress, I’ve decided to throw my hat into this prospective ring as I have a love of drinkin’, fightin’ and flyin’ thanks to my half Flanagan clan roots, and the Fightin’ Irish seemed to be the right craic to indulge in some aerial debauchery.

Clichéd intro aside however, my name’s Mike, I’m 24 and enjoy long moonlight walks in the rain whils- Sorry, wrong forum. So err, right, back on track. I’m from “sunny” Widnes in Cheshire and work for a well known beer brewer/distributor. I’ve been flying in IL-2 on/off for about 3 years, but still absolutely suck, and prior, I flew with the 214th Annihilators in Flanker 2.5 from about 1999-2002. I luck forward to getting stuck in with both the flying, banter, and perhaps, the odd drinking contest over the coming months with the mighty Fightin’ Irish.

Best keeping it short, so Cheers!

Mike

:shock: IS there such a thing? Perhaps that's just a legend perpetrated to try to get people to fall for something other than GUINNESS!! ;)

I've tried a of of German beers (including that EVIL OPTIMATOR). I'm sure they suffer some from the boat ride to the US. However, I haven't found a German beer that treats me as nicely as Guinness does when I decide to "over serve" myself. :oops:
