Unknown substance on ATM

    I was using the Bank Of Ireland ATM in Terenure yesterday.

    Walked up with my friend, was about to put my card in, noticed this AWFUL smell - some sort of vile mix of vomit, crap and the pits of Hell.

    Looked down at the keypad and noticed it was covered in this dried-in reddish substance.

    Dear Lord!

    I'm still confused as to what it was - if anyone read that thread about 'weirdest things you've seen' ... It reminded me of that "Scutterman" character :D

    Someone got sick when they saw their balance.

    Someone murdered that Bint off the AIB ad, and went smearing her body parts on every ATM in Terenure.

    I was born in Terenure,
    I met my husband in Terenure,
    I got married in Terenure,
    I got murdered and dismembered in Terenure, and my body parts were strewn across ATMs.... in Terenure.

    I always take my money out before I get into town. Couple of reasons I suppose. Number one, people in town scare the life out of me and the thought of anyone waiting behind me to get money out / mug me freaks me out. And of course there is the whole idea that some wanker probably took a p1ss on the atm last night, or someone had their face smashed off it.

    I've told Josie you can't make a deposit through the ATM..!

    Sounds like someone has the 'special' on the way home from a night on the sauce and was looking to get some money to pay for his/her taxi.

    I'm not a detective ......but I should be.

    Either you keep your money under your mattress or have an ATM in your house.

    Shamefully, I did! :p

    I had my scarf over my face so I couldn't smell it and used a tissue over my hands so I wouldn't have to touch whatever it was... ugh!

    The other atm next to it was out of service, so I thought I had no choice!

    I then turned around and saw an AIB ATM across the road ... *sigh*

    A beggar in The Nure? Horrdly!

    Although, I can hardly say it's posh, considering someone spewed all over one atm!

    Seriously, even walking back from the shop near the atm, I nearly passed out from the smell!

    It smelled like Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty had been camping there for weeks!

    /inserts generic celebrity hate comment here.

    But anyways, I can see why you use non inner-city atms.

    When I use one , I get the ' Ja Have a yuro on ya bud? '

    'oh no, sorry I don't . Unfortunately the machine doesn't deal in coins. '

    Sorry. I read the word "bank" and assumed it was a combined sperm, blood, and faeces bank. My bad.
