The more I hear of his case and the campaigning on his behalf, the less I like it and the more inclined to think he's in the right place. This wasn't a simple accountancy mistake - it was a sustained effort to hid income from the revenue over a period of time. That Finnian McGrath should lobby on his behalf is just disgraceful.

And our wannabe future president, Frances Black. She's organised a public meeting to drum up support. She's fast becoming Ireland's latest Mother Theresa lickadoo

I like Joe Le Taxi but would suggest an amendment;

'Joe Le Taxi (because I don't take the bus, sez he)'

I also humbly suggest;

'You can't say dat'

as a kind of meta, self-referential, post-modern, muggy lovey happy clappy tred title, so to speak.

Someone really needs to tell Joe how to wear a suit. Look at the short sleeves 8-10 inches out of the jacket. :rolleyes:


No gaudy tie or pocket square for dis photo at least.

The cuff links always on display in every posed pitchurr are a tell.

Someone somewhere once upon a time made a show of Joe's button up sleeves and dat or meybe he was werin a Pennys shirt or something and Joe vowed to show him he was a proper sofistikaydadad man afder dat at every opportunadee he gawht.

I can see Uncle Gaybo passing remark on an innocent Joe turning up in a cheap shirt to some doo.

No. The Royal and Ancient Yacht Club of Tax Haven Howth gave the premises for an 80th or 90th (or so...) b'day celebration. The ADULT dawturr came along and started nailing (wit big thick nails) pictures into the walls of the venue, nails that would leave marks/damage the plaster etc. on extraction. Same adult dawturr kept calling her father "daddy" in a very weird kind of way so to speak. They were asked to stop doing this and didn't, so they were asked to leave and the event was cancelled (from memory). Some guy from the venue was on defending it's handling of it and mentioned the Commodore, the Rear Commodore and the Rear Admiral etc. and there was a massive argument over how much it wood cost to restore the establishment to de wunderful fantastic condition it was in before de nails went in and dat. De Dawturr had a quote for pennies and the club wanted it done by a decorator of their choice who was quoting a grand or so. Was all very hoity toighty la de focking da so to speak. Lots of shouting and name calling from memory and an apology (I think) from the rep. from the yacht club but nuttin' in return from de dawturr of the young man of 80 or 90.



Given the location (and again from memory) there was a suggestion that this was a neighbour of someone (can you guess who dat is?) so to speak......oh wait, I think she mentioned Joe knew her daddy or some sheet like dat.

Joes climbin Croke Paddy ??

Dat reminds me of an incident when I was living in the Border Hills of Scotland, when a well-known celebrity walker came into the village to film a section of his Border Trail. We saw him and the camera crew alight from a fully kitted-out Land Rover Safari, we saw them in the bar at the local hostelry, and we saw them all pile into the LRS the following morning, and we saw them all pile out of the LRS at the top of the highest peak in the area, which had a tarmac lane going up to the radio transmitter site at the top.
On the programme we later saw on the tellybox, we saw the Celebrity Walker arrive on foot, puffing and panting and waxing lyrical about the place, we saw him set off on foot to achieve the goal of slogging up the highest peak, and we saw him arrive, puffing and panting, up the top, and gasping for breath, lauding the view and the magnificence.
In all honesty, the longest journey on foot that Celebrity Walker made was a repeated trip from the bar to the lavatory. Mountain Trekking, my arse, what a fraud.


I have no doubt in my mind what-so-ever, that if Joe was ever filmed climbing Croke Patrick, that kind of thing above would be exactly the truth of it.

+1 on your entire post. On the cuff links, he's had some awfully garish ones over de years.



He oozes insecurity. He has de aura of a man who has made it into de club, but knows deep down he'll never be fully accepted by some members so to speak.


Dis scene from Layer Cake duz spring to mind:

And Monday too no less. Normally he just focks off unannounced and leaves de audience clueless as to his return date.


2 (more) days off a week before a Bank Holiday weekend so 3 4day weeks in a row so to speak. I say weeks but when your wurking week is 6hours and 15minutes that may be a bit of stretch to call it dat.

Have we picked a name yet?

I’m convinced there’s something more to this dr sam story.

Apparently very involved in “Palestinian causes”

The wife came across as a complete gob****e. First mistake bollixology. This went on for years!

Wonder did the guards trace where this money he frauded from the tax man went

http://www.irishmap.ie/docs/Leaflet%20Irish%20MAP.pdf

It seems that Dr Sam is probably pouring the tax dodged money into a Palestinian Hospital, which some could argue is a Robin Hood type of crime. However, funding of Palestinian medicine, which is laudable in itself, should be done from funds donated openly by countries and wealthy individuals. Now, this source of funding from Dr Sam is now down the plug hole, a big let-down for the Hospital.

Uncharted

This Dr Sam character certainly has friends in 'high' places..... it's all very suspect.

Without a doubt there's more to this 'social elite' yarn.

Uncharted

And on that note,I'd like to throw my hat in the ring for a thread title suggestion.......

Well, Fr Ray spends most of his time now at singing contests and giving concerts; Fr Joe is equally versatile could turn his hand to giving a bit of a holy service in the chapel on the summit, hear some confessions “talk to Joe” (Dey wud be kewing I’m tellin ya) and sell a few bukes whilst he’s at it.
