    This is absolutely nothing to do with irelandoffline but i just thought it was so class I had to share it with you all

    Comes home from a hard days slog in work and lo and behold theres a letter for me, was in an official dail envelope, so i thought it was just from another minister not willing to do a thing about my BB problem but sympathising with my cause at the same time

    But no as i rip open the envelope there was a christmas card, but not any old christmas card, it was from Martin Cullen.

    It was signed

    To *****

    Happy Christmas

    From

    Martin and family

    My invitation to christmas dinner musta been lost in the post, anyway fair play to the man i suppose

    Mods if ye wanna delete or move or just leave it here for some christmas Cheer

    If you write a letter to a politician who is in your constituence, it's odds on you will get an xmas card -
    Postage was probably paid for by outr taxes too ;) (was there a stamp on the envelope?)

    This will be the first year in a long time that I WON'T get a christmas card from Four Star. When I moved house earlier this year, I decided it was a good time to stop eating so much pizza so I never searched out the nearest 4-star.

    Never got a card from a politician. Ho-hum :cool:

    How ironic... Now shinzon, be a good lad and phone everyone in Ireland to thank them for your christmas card :D

    (or at least everyone in Ireland that pays taxes... so you can give the politicians a miss)
