I know this is early,but I was informed of a forum member here may be posing as an Irishman.Now being of Irish blood,2nd generation Canadian,I would like to call him out.I have heard he goes by the handle of "irish lar".I knew of this person some years ago,and,well I feel we have an imposter.So,Irish Lar it is time we squared off,
btw,welcome to the board!
Hello Dave
It seems early to be called out ,but bring it on ' Iwas born 1950 (ouch )in Dublin ,Just steps from O Connell ST ,(you cant get any more IRISH than that location ) Came to Canada in 1955 and landed in TO ,I now reside in the Village of Newcastle and work for the General in Oshawa ,
Irish Lar
PS
Thank you for the info and insight on the Corsa exhaust ,I plan on ordering the 95 an early Christmas gift '' Thanks again Lar :
People used to call me the irish wop! (with a name like Patrick Gattafoni, you can see why!)
Truth be told, my mom's parents are from Scotland and my dad's parent's are from Italy! So it's probably a good thing I'm not a soccer fan, otherwise I'd have to kick my own arse!!
