    This newspaper was delivered at a house in Doughiska area today. I could not believe my eyes when a relation posted these picture for us to see.

    See photos

    Imagine it is todays paper (FREE) which is distribited to peoples houses in Galway city. It was like person who put through a letter box had done lots with it as it also had been written on etc. In short may I should say a maybe filthy paper.

    I can not believe that GA will pay people to distribute disgusting newpaper to someones house that one can not even read, imagine with children in the house, diseases etc.

    Can someone tell us if this is usual please?

    Looks like the paper might have been wet from the rain, then dryed out?

    Overreacting much? Its a slightly dirty crumpled front cover. It hardly carries diseases.

    I was expecting it to be smeared in dog crap or something based on the racket you're making. It's a free newspaper delivered to your door and occasionally they get wet and crumple up. Someone probably scribbled on the top paper in the bale at some stage. I've been getting the Ad Rag for years and occasionally (every few years) it happens. I'm not about to go on a rampage about it.

    Bit early for punets of strawberries, it's only April

    Anyway, what's the issue OP?

    Is it the filthy slut in her underwear that's offending you? I think I know what the delivery boy did with it

    I am a bit disappointed that it ruined the pic of the bird in the lingerie ad tho. She doesn't look sexxxay anymore. :-(

    good camera i guess, close flash, did not bring out the picture as it looks.

    to confirm said colour looks different, i bet one knows what they are saying.

    it is torned, have been written on etc and this is just front page

    nothing about overreacting just better not to drop.

    I was almost afraid of clicking on the picture link :eek:

    In fairness the huge gouge out of the paper in the 3rd picture may have been what sent the OP over the edge.....:p

    Better to buy one than get one that one did not ask for.


  • Registered Users Posts: 73 ✭✭GOODME


    There are diseases out there esp viruses etc, better not to drop a paper in a condition they would not like themselves.

    Can't you see writing on the top page? said there was more inside also.

    Looks fine to me, of course you can read it. It's handy to get a paper delivered if I want one I have to go out and get it myself.

    Another first world problem for After Hours to be shocked over.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,424 ✭✭✭telekon


    This is our 9/11. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,294 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    For a moment I thought you had 'The Mail', or even worse, 'The S*n' delivered to you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,809 ✭✭✭phill106


    Dam, I really thought some sexually filthy newspaper was the topic here :(

    Give yourself a pat on the back and bask in the glow of your new-found environmentalism.
