Enough with the friggin talented dog Joe, for crying out loud.

Skid

I reckon he watched Dumbo once too often when he was a kid.

Joe you are a gimp! You CANNOT compare a dog in a film to big mammal like an elephant, chained and made to perform ina circus, year after year.

He really is a thick. :mad:

When we "look back in horror" fifteen years from now, I doubt it will be at the thought of circus elephants.

Did the blubbering elephant lover say who or what organisation he's with? He's on about following these animals around the country, and investigations abroad, and practically mounting surveillance.... sounds very organised - he's obviously not a lone nutter.

There was a circus that came to Brno recently, and there was a Tiger in a cage on a flat bed truck. It was a very sad sight. Some animal rights campaigners say keeping a cat in a flat is cruel, but my two cats have about 80 square meters to run around in(and they do). An 9 foor long tiger in a 12x15 metre cage is just wrong.

Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus!

Another break-een!

Joe must be in and out to the Bookies.

I'm beginning to wonder if maybe Joe has a little elephant-een in the back garden-een to entertain the three twins!!

"catholic ethos"
The very words make my skin crawl...

IvyTheTerrible

Ah here. One of these Catholic persecution complex dillusionists, again.

Clontarf!

BINGO!!

syklops

They'd get a vote from me if they did try and remove the strnagle hold the church has on education.

Did he say its called the Clontarf report?

Skid

Why is he talking about trivial issues like Education when there are unhappy elephants in Fermoy?

sudzs

From educate together to suffer together! :rolleyes:

Let catholics, muslims, jews and all other religions fund raise and build schools for their children to attend if they feel so strongly, if I believed in a magic teapot in the sky I'd fundraise for a school with that "ethos", state schools should be totally secular as in America and UK.

Ah but it seems these parent's attitude is, why fundraise when the government can finance their religious beliefs, and absolve them of the responsibility for the religious education of their own children??

Missed the last 15 or so minutes, worth podcasting later?

Get the last of the elephants, but for final 6 or so minutes he went back to religious education.....not a patch on Dumbo, so skip that bit.

Maybe some sort of joint elephant sanctuary/catholic's only school is needed if todays LL is anything to go by?

And like the point I made with my cats. You can give a dog a nice life very cheaply and easily. Pardon the pun but an elephant is a very different animal. <-- May be pointing out the obvious.

Good show today, the mad, the bad and the sad (elephants).

the thread was fairly whipped up.

A bit earlier Joe says 'Do you go to Mass every week?'

Then she says 'Well, not religiously' :pac:

that Karen one sounded like a right hypocrite she insists on sending her child to a catholic school but she said herself she only goes to mass twice a year:rolleyes: i mean ffs

"catholic ethos" .....:eek:...we all know what that led to, why this woman or anyone would want to put their child through it is beyond me.

its the whole irish nationalism + catholic thingy the two are tightly intertwined

The Elephant Man John Carmody sounds suspiciously like Terence (aka John Creedon - We're all God's Children), it's not....is it??????????????

Looks like I missed a good one yesterday, elephants you say!
