    Piped music in shops is very annoying.

    But it could be worse.

    I was in a shop last week and they had Liveline coming through the speakers. :eek:

    You should've rang Liveline to complain about it.

    "Charlie Bird didnt do his leaving"

    That'll certainly scare them in to finishing secondary school alright.

    Des asked one of the Dubs "Who would you let your sister marry?"

    They had yet another piece about city folk with lots of Garda stations within 5 minutes of their house giving out about rural folk living an hour from help and owning a gun for self defense. If someone breaks into my house I'll take the Barry Scott approach "Bang! and the Dirt is gone"

    Marie Louise O'Dramatic is the greatest advertisement for the abolition of The Seanad. Keep it up Marie. Not long to go now.

    listening to Sean at the ploughing championships today, he comes across more like a football match commentator that a radio presenter..

    I'm getting tired of all these outside broadcasts from the Ploughing Championship on Newstalk and RTE. The sound is shyte, and there's only so much of farming talk that I can take before my eyes glaze over.

    the only good thing about the ploughing championships is the chance to see shazzer in wellies on the six one news.

    She's intolerable, but she's no more an advertisement for the abolition of the Seanad than Michael Lowry is an advertisement for the abolition of the Dáil. She's very much an advertisement for its reform.

    I can't help wondering if Kenny put her in the Seanad as a method of bolstering his rather cheap and vacuous "arguments" for its abolition.

    But we're not being given a vote for reform, it's a straight yes or no. Organisations like Democracy Matters are intentionally muddying the waters by talking about reform, as a lot of the people behind it are senators or former senators who were quite happy to take their seats in that crony-filled doss house and didn't seem to raise any objections to it at the time.

    I have no time for Lowry either but at least it can be argued that he's in the Dail by virtue of the democratic franchise of his constituents.

    How come Paddy O'Gorman always finds a "smartly dressed woman" to talk to outside the courts? Could he be a babe magnet by any chance?

    What estate was that where people are queueing? (I missed the beginning of the item)

    It's like being in a dream, hearing that sort of thing again :eek:

    Mind you, a four-bed house for 40 grand.....

    I hope O'Rourke gives Martin a hard time for being in the ill-fated FF cabinet all during the boom. I expect nothing less than an interrogation...oh wait.

    None of these ex alcoholics seem to like Arthur's Day at all.. That's surprising, isnt it.

    I think we should attribute the disgruntled behaviour of certain people more to the fact that they are miserable b*stards, more than to Arthur's Day..
