Yes Diuretic, its called "Camogie" and its only slightly less violent than the male version. You wouldn't stand these girls up on a night out in Galway my good man.

Yes Lu, a 100 yard field of grass, do you not call them pitches in America? What do you call the pitch that you play American football on?

Sorry if it's been asked already but which direction does the water swirl when you pull the plug?

Camogie, like Hurling is a game for cissies - they are both nothing more than soft, degenerate versions of Camanachd. That's Shinty for all poor uncivilised sods out there.
Also Scotswomen play Shinty - to the same rules as the men do. Ask Gallbally who won the annual cross-code match this yera (and last year, and......).
