Recent Emigrant from Ireland?

    We are looking to speak with recent emigrants about their experience. Have you left Ireland within the past year for work? Where did you go? What were the greatest challenges? And did it turn out as expected? Have you moved a family or as an indivual?

    Thank you

    Do we get a reduction in our licence fee in return for our help?

    I left Ireland to get away from Prime Time. Didn't realise you would follow me through boards though.

    That's two of us who pay for RTE's wondrous output, pity no-one else does.

    Are RTE paying Boards as much as they pay Gerry Ryan???

    Really though I thought RTE were the Enemy around here........This is NOT Almost Famous, we aren't going to accept them into our hearts just so they can talk sh1t about us.

    We have a thread about licence fee's every week and then this????

    He didn't even greet us in his OP, no "Hi, I'm Mark from RTE and I was just hoping if you guys could help us out."

    Does he actually have permission from Mods to have this up? Wasn't that a condition of these Paid for accounts?

    OK I just don't like RTE, I'll leave now.

    This guy doesn't own, or run, or make RTE bastards.. he's just doing his job as a researcher.. give him a break.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,992 ✭✭✭✭gurramok


    I think Mark does not know what After Hours is like :)
    Perhaps maybe Politics forum or the holiday forum would suffice to get serious answers or maybe create an emigration forum :P

    He's auditioning for "I'm an emigrant, get me outta here"

    Seriously dude, it was either him or Miriam.............. and I think after hours would be swept away by a deluge of spunk if Miriam showed up.

    Hi Mark,

    I left Ireland for Australia in 2007 and would be happy to answer any questions you have.

    Cheers

    Why are Prime Time topics always so dry?

    Do one on the arguments for and against the legalisation of Cannabis, that's the AH way


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 365 ✭✭Mat the trasher


    Also left the house of cards at the start of the year, now work all over the world.

    Why is Mark Little really leaving Primetime?

    Is it cause Smug McWilliams called him a peanut?

    Not to my knowledge. It is being looked into as we speak....eh.. I mean type.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,582 ✭✭✭✭TheZohanS


    Lazy journalism.

    It's sad to see Primetime resorting to this kind of crap.

    I don't see how this is lazy journalism? Boards.ie is a great way for someone to get the views, experiences or opinions of the general Irish populate.. Its a good resource.

    Granted AH probably isn't the best forum to look for it..

    Pics of your MA or get out Mark

    I thought you quit? Something about a social networking and online media company? Going to wipe that smug grin of Miriam the Seducer's face once and for all. It was all over the times yesterday anyway!

    So no. I guess we're not.
    Has anyone called Gerry Ryan a bollix yet?
    I'm just trying to tick the boxes here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,028 ✭✭✭Hellm0


    I left Ireland for the US in 2007, feel free to pm me with any questions.

    It's part of my morning routine.

    1. Wake up
    2. Sh*t
    3. Call Gerry Ryan a bollocks.
    4. Shower
    5. Call Gerry Ryan a bollocks again.
    6. Go to work.

    It's not Mark Little you silly billies, it's just some researcher with the same first name.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    Try asking in the travel sections of this site.

    And in future just sign up to boards.ie as 'Marko2009' (or whatever tickles your fancy) and start a thread identical to the one you did only throw in the odd:

    "The government are a shower of wankors!!!!" comments

    so as to blend in with the general AH population.

    Then just PM people who seem like good candidates for your interview. :rolleyes:

    No,we get a double helping of Ryan Confidential.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,467 ✭✭✭Wazdakka


    I bet the guy who pitched the idea to Prime time to buy a boards.ie account is kicking himself right now.
    "Sure, It'll be a great idea, We'll get the public's vieews and opinions on so many important issues"
    :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    I don't think AH is the place to post this question and so I'm locking this.
