    Happy bailout day everybody! 16th November... Our new national holiday!

    To celebrate this festive day everybody dresses up like a property developer and gives handfuls of monopoly money and Anglo Irish share certificates.

    It was all over the news in New Zealand tonight. I actually felt a bit sick hearing all the negativity and grave predictions being thrown at me. Apparently our government is about to fail and the country go bust. Everyone at work today felt obliged to come to my deks and have a bit ol chin wag about how my country is ****ed

    I'm never going to be able to come home :(

    Brian Cowan did look funny on the news though. They didn't even attempt the word Taoiseach - it was "Irish Prime Minister"!

    It will be grand, sure we will be a province of Germany in a few weeks. Just break out the sauerkraut and arrive to work wearing lederhosen.

    At least the trains might run on time.

    It means that we have to pay for governments mistakes.
    Yey.

    They did everything possible to cover their own arses over the last few years, now that their personal wealth is safe they can freely **** the rest of us over.
    Happy days!

    The corporation turned down 2 requests from private developers to do it for no cost to the city, in return for being allowed to put a 2 storey underground car park there. Much the same brain power / thinking as those running the country for the past few years.:rolleyes:

    it's not a 'bailout', that's a 'perjorative term' that wrongly suggests we are looking not to meet our debts...jaysus lads, do yis not know anything :rolleyes:
