Yeah, good point! The sun never set on the... Irish empire? And all those countries around the world that celebrate independence from Ireland. And gaelige, that worldwide language, spoken in all the former colonies. The Irish museums, full of antiquities rescued from the locals around the world.

They're really just a shower of bastards with good PR!

Hold on, hold on, don't lump Ireland in with the colonists, they were over here taking what didn't belong to them long before they made it to India...

So when you say "pudding", you mean white pudding or black pudding?

Congrats, I read it as horse first time round, either way, best of luck!

Okay, so I read the report and they seem to think that it's worth €4.6k for each adult and €1.6k for each child to be involved in the GAA. And then counting the happiness the volunteering gives, along with the previously counted monetary saving of having volunteers is with roughly €5k per volunteer.

Not sure who's saving the money, or how, or how they came to the valuations, but they have numbers on it.

Interesting document - cheers OP.

Interesting, I wonder how they quantify the monetary value they have assigned to it.

You wouldn't make "Back To The Future" now because it wouldn't be the future...
