I heard somebody say on the radio the other day that the last time that parts of The Shannon were properly dredged was when the British were here.

There's environmental impact studies you have to do now to protect animals etc, such bollixology. I remember back growing up as a kid the councils out cleaning dirt from shores during the summer, you never see this done any more, that's half the problem.

I know...nothing against her personally, but I am not sure what the point of this is.

You know the lady has nice hair...

She has for sure.

I think you would agree she has had hardship when her house was flooded. She is not alone.

The dirt and the smell...

Aww, c'mon, grey. I know the audience looks a bit odd, but they're not that bad

I got an email saying I have two tickets for the Late Late show next Thursday night (its on Thursday 17th and is the last show of the year).
I can't wait, am hoping that maybe some of the cast of Star Wars will be there and that there will be good freebies!!!

Star Wars? I'm guessing Arya isn't a regular viewer

Would Irish Water be looking at these pictures in the same was JR Ewing would look seeing a fresh oil discover?

Skid X

Some nice houses in the videos, all ruined.

Ol' Donie

I was in a taxi earlier.

Talking about how warm it is, he said "Yeah, it's been very cold and then very warm and then cold again. Bleedin ridiculous!"

It's not so long ago that there was a campaign to stop water being taken from the Shannon and being piped to Dublin?

Greentopia

That photo of the plant nursery under water makes me sad. Poor man.:(

Horticulture student here.

I agree.

Atlantic Dawn

You could see someone else's logs in your garden so to speak.

It must be so horrible putting up with this though.

Where did you drop him off

I am not watching LLS but I can honestly say this thread is far more entertaining than the real thing.

Azrel

Just say it's a new swimming pool and charge the locals €10 for a swim, the kids will be off for christmas soon looking for something to do during the days. The damage will be paid off in no time.

Atlantic Dawn

Is that really €40k, looks light.

homerjay2005

have utmost sympathy for them, but blaming the government for this is just pure nonsense when its a problem thats been there for 100's of years.

building houses on flood planes is a complete and utter bullsh*t also.

Skid X

Could he not give them a voucher for an electrical store or something?

The vultures at the Toy Show audience get thousands of euro worth of goodies just for sitting through it.

grey_so_what

I feel so sorry for all involved.

Hope ye get some help from the agencies involved....

Azrel

Wha da f**k?? Edit - oh it's Irish..

grey_so_what

Oh Jaypers, this is terrible..............................

Lady Chatterton

Sound is sh1te.

Máriah Cháraí

Fair play to them for absolutely beating this gimmick to death.

Roger_007

That could be any language!

Harry Angstrom

Am I the only person who couldn't give a toss about popular songs being turned into Irish?

Welsh Megaman

I really need to hear this song again.

Irish Water are probably causing this. Putting in their pipes to flood the place and "sure look if you just pay your water charges, we can mend everything!!"

Would Mariah Carey have a larger amount of cash arriving to her on Chrismas Eve than Shane MacGowan from royalties?
