E.S.B. is answer. name of the horse that won the national when devon loch fell

DMG 1972

Fair play Sam thanks for that - I had thought of idiotic but didn't think it fit the clue

samsausage

village idiot was only thing i could think of but doesn't explain it fully, i think? only other word that fits is "illogic"??

Phil Flynn got €240,000 based on this story http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/finance/2006/0413/1142365534668.html

For the Aer lingus one you would get this in their annual report which is probably on their website.

IDIOTIC is correct.

if it doesn't fit then you have something else wrong.
