People in the Dundalk area phoned in to radio station LMFM this morning complaining there had been serious delays in the delivery of mail in the town. One customer received a letter posted in October last year on Friday, and another received five letters on Saturday – including two for colonoscopy appointments and another for an appointment at the eye clinic in the Louth County Hospital, which they missed as a result of the delay. Gardaí have confirmed they carried out a search of a house earlier in the month and found a batch of undelivered post. The mail is now being delivered with an attached note from An Post apologising for the inconvenience caused.

ButtersSuki wrote: » He did join the cycle for the last few Kms but that wasn't what her complaint was.She (along with many other parents) questioned via face buke did he know where the money was going etc and questioned his knowledge of the charity itself (he didn't appear to have a clue btw) and its governance - given the current climate regarding charities income and expenditure all valid questions IMO. He called her "a vile creature" on de facebuke during that exchange for daring to question him. When she called Joe to discuss this Joe ambushed her and took Rory's side with both of the experienced media people ganging up on her. She was understandably a little nervous and did cross the line herself in the argument, but I would excuse her behaviour FAR more in an overall context than Rory's (or indeed Joe's). He refused to withdraw the remark, made it all about him and though given yet another chance to withdraw it at the end of the segment refused again even going so far as to say he didn't think he'd ever do charity work again. He had no problem fronting the carbon monoxide campaign for a fee though today - and yes, they do get fees for those gigs.

Those people would have been better off spending their time trying to raise more money for their charity but all they wanted to do was attack some celebrity, Any celebrity will do! Your bar for celebrity is set pretty low if you count him as a celebrity btw. I'd say 99% of the people who saw him assumed he was a worker in Woodies rather than a "celebrity". People like that wan and her facebuke crew are the reason I say fork off to charity collectors even those collecting for childer. Only people I give freely to are StVdeP and any hospice/homecare collections and that is because of people like that wagon who are just basically ungrateful when a celeb offers a little help! On a point of clarity, he didn't offer - he said himself he was asked to do it. And of course he gets nothing out of it (yes, I'm being sarcastic there)......name and picture in the paper etc., it's publicity for him too you know and that's how the game works. Roary was not there to write a thesis on the charitry or the particular illness/disability, he was there to ride a bike a few miles and raise some publicity for the cycle and fundraising which he did quite happily! Happily? After the event he engaged in a full on facebuke war with a number of women and called one "a vile creature". Anyone with a bit of dignity would have remained silent; or, if they really wanted to address the issue released a short statement explaining their motivations for doing said event. He doesn't need to know anything about the charity to help them raise a few hundred euros True. He doesn't also have to throw a hissy fit when asked about his motivation for doing so either. It (and his "performance" on lahv Lahn) were not the most dignified nor graceful. but that gang of facebuke witches is there any real need for you to call them that? thought to get more publicity by attacking a fairly nice person (in your opinion - I don't know him personally, do you? I can only judge him on the few times I've heard him speak about Israel and of course the times he's been on with Joe and tbh I find him very distasteful). Btw, on the facebuke argument - it takes two to tango, and he was very much involved in that argument. I'd posit that as a person involved in the media he should be a little more streetwise and savvy and know how those thing work and go out of his way to remain dignified and void conflict - 2 things he certainly failed to do. who is also a celebrity.

I'd really like if you answered the question re. do you know him personally btw.As I said previously (on the day and earlier this evening), she wasn't 100% right either by any means, but she certainly came across better than Mr. Cowan. Do you really think it's acceptable for him to have called her "a vile creature"? And even if he said it in the heat of the moment he was given numerous chances to withdraw it and apologise but he turned them all down. Classy guy.

As for that vile creature comment, it came afaik after an orchestrated tirade of abuse on facebuke led by the wan on the radio, so I can understand the reason it was said and the refusal to retract it.

If it were only a few small shops at it, he'd be on them like an attack hamster, worrying them to death with his savage nips.
