    Oh he'll be in alright... There's no way he'll miss the opportunity to read out the texts telling him how wonderful he is... As he pretends to rush over the ones that praise him, as if he hasn't pre read them..

    He'll just have to motor on through on half power before he leaves us again to "recharge the batteries" before the easter break next week...he'll be back then firing on all cylinders! 😁

    Or he could have gone and joined the gang a bit later on the day after the climb to complete the solidarity, maybe joined for a pint or whatever. I’m guessing Charlie wouldn’t be able to swallow normally but they could have a private function room to raise a toast. Behind the scenes, without making a spectacle of it. One photo of Ryan & others with Charlie in foreground and without that distasteful pointing trope.

    The finger pointing... Its so disrespectful. Theres a picture on the rte news page of Daniel respectfully holding Charlie's hand up and Tubridy doing the pointy thing. I'm not posting it here as its distastful to Charlie, take a look if you wish . That pointing thing is so cheesy and garish, completely inappropriate to do a man who deserves such utter respect.

    I also saw a clip on the news where it's clear that Daniel, while politely answering a question from a reporter, is trying to take himself immediately out of any limelight.

    Tubridy, meanwhile 🙄 ...point, point, hohoho, LOOK AT MEEEEEEEEE.

    You do realize the event was entitled “Climb with Charlie” and not “Climb with Ryan”, right? The use of the helicopter was crass and in extremely poor taste for a charity event.

    But what else should I expect from the poster who’ll defend any behaviour from the NK Management stable and RTÉ.

    The whole point was to partake wether it be on Croagh Patrick or Killiney Hill. I'm simply pointing out that it's my impression Tubs went to extraordinary lengths to be present at photo opportunities and I'm afraid, I don't get this "Sudden Helicopter Ride". Which I believe was planned in advance. If it was going to be such a challenge for RT to make it to the event, I'm sure NK could have arranged lots of publicity for RT as he walked up one of the Dublin mountains.

    Given the extraordinary efforts thousands of people made to partake in various climbs around the country and for what was a "Charitable Event", wether you agree or not, the news of RT being flown in by buddies looks dreadful.

    Kudos to Daniel O Donnell who gained my respect for the graciousness and decorum he showed, he not only attended, stayed over night and despite being well able to afford it, didn't require a Helicopter to fly into the limelight. Infact he went out of his way to stay out of the limelight as to be fair did other celebrities.

    This is a newer than new Low for RT and no matter how its spun his one and only motivation was being seen to be seen.

    Crass, Vulgar, Distasteful and shameful with breathtaking arrogance 🙄

    Is maith an scáthán súil charad.

    Having climbed it myself half the battle is getting to it, choppers suggest ignorance of the environment and there for the pics and a quick exit

    No, just no. You see that's the difference between Tubs & Co. - and clearly you - and me. I would say no, because I'm actually capable of looking at the optics of it and realize it does not look good, esp. for a charity event. It's an appalling attitude to have TBH.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 480 ✭✭Kildare1976


    No matter how its spun, even his most staunch supporters could not condone that behaviour. Its celtic tiger carry on, during a time where people are choosing between heating their homes or feeding their families.

    Lovely to support friends etc but at what cost (and I don't just mean it financially). True friends know when they have your support, it's in the little things done in the background to help you carry the burden not the showy stuff. Many of us have lost loved ones during the pandemic who tragically had to pass away alone because of the restrictions....would one less show off really have been missed on Saturday, his wife, kids and grandkids were there and thousands of genuine people who could relate and empathise with him from their own experiences. This crass culture of "if you don't have pics for social media then it doesn't count" has to stop. Vulgar carry on.

    Tubs had some week last week from a self-awareness perspective:

    1) Revealed that RTE staff are doing his legal research for him and contacting Social Media companies about having his image removed from ads

    2) Revealed the line that we knew was BS anyway from RTE that "gifts are given to charity" as he announced he was wearing a scarf that was sent in to the show

    3) Decided he was suitable to do a duet with Michael Buble

    4) Hijacked a charity event and made it all about himself

    5) Took a helicopter (!!!!) flight costing thousands (to someone, of course Tubs didn't pay for it!) to said charity event, whilst letting Charlie make his own way to it

    6) Asked listeners and RTE to fund a trip to Orlando and tickets to see Macca because it's his birthday!

    7) Decided he'd like to be a Celebrity Judge (his words!) on Home Of The Year. What qualifications does he have to be a Judge on this show? None, of course.

    Charlie on Morning Ireland just now. Name checked Daniel O'Donnelll and the Clew Bay pipe Band amongst others. Strangely noe mention of the DLB Ryan T, though



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 480 ✭✭Kildare1976

    Gentle dodging of the mode of transport used to grace the peasants with your presence and arrival.........

    Charlie, Daniel, AND MYSELF..........

    Ryan upset that he got his brogue shoes wet on the way up.

    Humans at their best... What does he actually identify as?

    Helping people who have fallen.... Normal behaviour for most "humans"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    And Dubarry have just been on to offer me a free pair of Dubes as a thank you for my heroic efforts on Saturday............



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 480 ✭✭Kildare1976


    Exactly as I said.... If it wasn't on social media it didn't happen.... Jesus



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    "I was chronicling it all on Instagram because otherwise it didn't happen"


    A little dig there Bryan? Not very kind is it?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,423 ✭✭✭Mena Mitty


    Was the money raised for MND research or the Bird's nest they spoke about earlier on Morning Ireland.


    I really should keep up with the news of the day.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Must be a thing now for all NK "Talent" Team members to mention the rest of the stablemates as often as possible, I've noticed this a lot lately. Ryan will probably mention Loddie shortly.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 480 ✭✭Kildare1976


    Good insight from a fellow climber... Daniel stayed with Charlie all the way... It appears from Instagram that RT didn't.... To busy mixing with his fans... Ery disappointing to hear he didn't walk in step with him. Just photo ops at the top.

    "Send in those Jelly beans to me you peasant! And by the way, I prefer Jelly Babies so throw in some of those too!"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    That was nauseating. Thankfully I'm out now.
