Who's winning these tenders? Are they EU-wide tenders?

The buses will be a bit later now, leaving from Dusseldorf and Madrid every morning.

Yeah, but you know the way a company from Bulgaria can tender here and import their buses, drivers and stick their drivers four to a room..?

bigroad

they are loosing their tenders cause ff is not in power and now others can tender.

4 new tyres, who would have thought a bus would need them to be safe.

I wouldn't be so sure. They'd probably still arrive quicker than Bus Éireann.

Frankly, I won't be at all surprised if that happens. Then they can drive the buses back for a dodgy Bulgarian MoT every year or two.

If we were in Norway it wouldn't be on price, if only we had a massive gas field off our western coastline we could gain finances from...

They call him Baldy, the skiddiest bus driver in the Wesht.

Funny you should mention that. Two of the three bus operators here are heavily involved in FF. It'll be interesting to see if they are still there come September.

Indeed, would be great, be welcomed with open arms and people would be rushing to help everyone concerned to get the goodies ashore in the shortest possible time.:cool:

One time Liveline legend Shane O' Curry just popped up on Morning Ireland.

He seems to have procured himself a gig as an anti-racism mouth piece.

Well anyone that's not on the taxpayers or NGO's dime and being remunerated for telling the general population that they are racist are in fact racist themselves (according to the self appointed pity industry builders)

Won't be in attendance for the rest of this week folks, but I'll do some post thread analysis at night. Keep up the good work!

I hope you have a work certificate to explain your absence?

Your indepth analysis will be most welcome. We'll want a full report next week, along with that cert for Roger. It is a pity you will miss Snubs and the Amazing Dancing Donkey, or SADD as they are being referred to as now. The donkey is a terrible singer, so Louis Walsh may sign them. There could be a world tour in the offing, though for now they are just going to start with the Ring of Kerry.

these jokers Cabot, and their debt collection crowd (forget their name, but same address as Cabot) are sending letters out to my boss. He is the same as that lady. These vultures are buying up 'debts' for cents, and trying to get money out of people.

Cull the people that think seagulls are a nuisance, along the the fox and deer hunters. Speaking of which, does anyone know how many hundred billion the population of deer are by now? It's been a few weeks since the last LiveLine count.

Did you cancel or close the account? They charge you again at the end.

Is that Cabot crowd regulated by the Financial Regulator?
