Anna is all kinds of ****ed up.

Her nickname down the day centre is "WeedDawg420".

Sounds like Phillip is trying to source some good weed.

And I don't know why anyone is particularly surprised at the response times of Gardai these days - fair enough there's the issue of the water meter protests in this case, but the numbers have fallen so much that I'm surprised they manage to get to any of their calls these days.

I've several experiences of this recently. Hit and run on my street, woman and kids in the other car, two lads in the other, they stopped briefly, then jumped in the car and sped off. Neighbour got the details and we rang back, the gardai never turned up.

A few weeks previously, kid ran out in front of a car at the local school, nothing too serious but an injury none the less. Gardai took over an hour to turn up.

And last year, witnessed a couple of guys in the process of breaking into a shipping container around 4pm. Rang the station, gave the details and where it was happening, a 5 minute drive from the garda station. I got a phone call that night, around 9:30pm, from a garda asking me what was taken ! Eh, I told them I don't know, it's not my container, it was happening at the time. Ok the garda said and hung up.

Is this woman a pharmacologist or neurologist , otherwise I think she should shut her cake hole giving medical advice .

Sounds like she knows quite a lot about her own disease.

In California the "only for medicinal purposes" quickly became a joke.

I'm reminded several times on Judge Judy, when she asks them the "nature of their illness", and they just start laughing, and she pulls a face.

And this happens in the US, a country which, unlike Ireland, tends to enforce their laws.

O/T, for which I apologise, but this is a big bugbear of mine! Distance of incident from Garda station is nothing to do with anything - the Gardai who are in the station cannot leave it to answer calls - the ones who respond are already out, possibly the other side of the (sometimes very large indeed) district, answering other calls. They very rarely, I suspect, get a call and think..... "nah, can't be bothered answering that, feck them".

I reckon people should start recording their phone calls to the gardaí.

Put them on youtube or here.

Shame them into action.

Well as someone who has experience in this area, if you buy enough ad packages you get free spots (slots) which can literally appear anywhere. I suspect that's what that was.

There's been enough feckin scandal about blood transfusions in recent years for them to be giving blood from people with blood problems in the first place.

Liam the gory drama queen

'I am bled'

It's the same procedure when we donate blood

The doctors don't want sick patients getting Liam's BORING blood and I agree with them.

Jaysus, I'm sure the Blood Bank don't have that rule in there for the lolz - especially when they're tweeting and FBing regularly how short they are in stocks.

Eamonn Dunphy hadn't a good word to say about Brazil even when they had Neymar, so he's hardly going to give them any chance without him.
