Now That’s What You Call A Wave Pic of the Day

This is no time for a stroll down the harbour, people.

THE SEVERE WEATHER hasn’t just been bashing the coast of Ireland. The UK has had it pretty rough too over the last few days.

One of the most dramatic photos of mother nature showing her strength was taken in South Wales.

This photo shows an enormous wave breaking at Porthcawl harbour, where very strong winds and high seas have created very dangerous weather conditions.

    So in relation to being against smoking he was ahead of his time,

    Like it or not guys smokings days are numbered, its going to become a bigger factor in alot of things….including applying for a job,

    Why would an employer want to employe anyone who willingly makes them sick more often then a non-smoker, statistically takes more breaks and constantly smells of smoke.

    Fair play to Fianna Fail they got it spot on on smoking, Micheál Martin deserves praise on this too for the smoking ban. It is a pity for all of us that the same is not true for their handling of the economy and their descent into cronyism for which our children’s children will pay.
