    If you think a musician is paying 50 percent tax....lol

    When is the money (including lost growth) Michael Noonan took in the Pension Levy going to be paid back?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,086 ✭✭✭✭2smiggy


    €10k to earn €5k , except if you are paid through a company to avoid the tax

    Last time I had circa €5k cash in my pocket it was bulky and I was fully aware of it still being with me for 99% of my journey taking it from A to B. As a precaution I had a 2nd envelope with me containing a similar bulkness in Monopoly cash if I was to be double crossed in the course of completing my deal so to speak that I could hand over to some mugger with internal info as to my upcoming transaction.

    Raymond, you back! Thank God, your wan from NK's accent really grated on my ears.

    I could only hear bits of the show. Was there any question that there was €5000 in the first place ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,346 ✭✭✭Tow


    No. I may know of David Lamb, unless there are two of them. The one I know if is a bit accident prone!

    I didn’t hear that segment myself but it’s liveline so you can bet there was no actual establishment that the €5000 existed. I notice your man’s goFundMe mentions a crime number but no listing for said flute. It’s over €3000 now. I’d find the whole thing questionable. Who’s to say he won’t lose the next €5000 too? Coukd he not pay the dealer via Revolut etc?

    I'd feel confident of opening a can at 8am and drinking one per hour till 8pm and still pass the bag, once eating properly throughout the day

    This must be some kind of a record. Con artist uses radio to con listeners.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,801 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Fcukker forgets that RTE wouldn't come on any programme at the time of 'Birthday Gate'….even though it happened on their own premises during lockdown.

    Ha' way now Fatteen, get your own house in order, pal, before you start criticising others.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,808 ✭✭✭squonk


    The name David Lambe she’s stuck up and that person is involved in music. Still singer of it’s just a chance using the name



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,486 ✭✭✭mountain


    David Lambe isn’t the best at minding things, he lost a flute on the train in 2022, (subsequently handed in) and now lost 5k, hope he minds this one a bit better



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,801 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Wheres the Hotalui woman…. I'd say she could knock up one no bother…… probably over in Tierra del Fuego probably?

    I'm saying nothing after the last time. Funny how that gossip girl never came back.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,499 ✭✭✭LambshankRedemption


    The problem with that idea is that modern AI systems are too accurate. Its quite hard to build an AI that gets things arseways 50% of the time.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,808 ✭✭✭squonk


    Geez that’s only 2 years ago. I could see that happenjng to somebody for sure but you learn the lesson and thank your lucky stars the flute was turned in. I left an iPad on the bus once. It never happened again. I got it back thankfully, lesson learned. I just don’t see how someone walks around with 5 grand in cash and just puts it in their pocket. There are better ways of paying large sums. You certainly don’t just stock the envelope in your pocket. Is this lad 5?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,801 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Oh ! didn't realise there was a bit of a shemozzle, anyway better not discuss someone else even though I liked her posts.

    A good contributor… up there with Facekicker!!!

    I missed a couple of programmes - did anybody track down Mercedes 1766HI and claim the €5000?

    I don't think so, missed a few shows since.

    Would be great if it was a false flag caller so to speak and the car was once owned by a member of The Wolfe Tones and featured on one of their album covers 😂.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,200 ✭✭✭TinyMuffin


    well he’s after getting a couple of thousand since big Joe got involved. It’s €5500 he’s looking for.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,676 ✭✭✭thecretinhop


    Some radio show on fb critics ing Joe good stuff can't post link as I'm a ludidte



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,808 ✭✭✭squonk


    Glad the donations are slowing down. He only has a €1900 shortfall now. Surely he could bridge that if he’s so concerned about the future of the flute. Apparently it’s going on to someone in Ireland who’ll care for it once he’s finished with it. Surely they’re good for a bit in the pot you’d think. If I was a cynic, which I’m not, I’d be thinking this sounds like a ploy to get a discounted flute with others stumping up the majority of the wedge.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,808 ✭✭✭squonk


    Anyone read this update on the go fund me…

    ”All going great with the fundraiser thanks a million to everyone involved your donations will go a long way to helping me raise the money for the flute that was taken away from me, thanks again.”

    What an idiot. I’d say he’s used to people bailing him out after his stupidity scuppers him. That’s how it sounds from that update. Joe never asked but apparently the flute was going to a non playing collector. Surely there’s an auction on this? Has the collector given in? If the money wasn’t delivered yesterday when does it need to be paid? Are bids closed now? So many questions!

    Just a second. "your donations will go a long way to helping me raise the money for the flute that was taken away from me, thanks again". His story from today was that the money he took out to pay for the flute was taken, but no flute was taken.

    That is very weird wording from the gofundme page.

    I was suspicious from the start, but this makes it worse.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86 ✭✭cher nobyl


    I was also suspicious, is there any chance the asking amount can be bumped up in the middle of fundraising. I thought it was definitely €5000 when i first opened the page, now its €5500

    does Duffy only get aroused for private nursing homes? Or will be cover this,

    DEATH: Nell McCafferty

    Joe will either dedicate de show to her or hardly a word will be said…

    RTE has entered Nordi Death Mode:

    It’s kind of funny the way David Flute guy says at the end of his spiel that city Center pickpockets were to blame for his losing his money. Yeah pick pockets are bad but do you not think you’re just a little bit to be blamed yourself for carrying that kind of money in your packer in the first place. Also he can provide a crime number but he was pickpocketed allegedly so what’s the crime report exactly? I was pickpocketed somewhere around O’Connell St. As I was pickpocketed I can’t identify the perp.

    To be fair this lad looks a bit too stupid for his own good so it’s probably true what he’s saying but no way should he have gotten on the air in the first place. If we have questions I’m sure researchers and a producer would have also and would vet him wrt his air time worthiness. Deep down I reckon Duffoon was the final arbiter of whether this guy got kn air, certainly by the arse licking Joe gave a fellow artiste at the end of the show. There’s a bad smell on this for me and my gut tells me something isn’t quite right. Like I said though this guy’s stupidity and lack of self awareness might actually mean it’s all true but it opens the she to the show being implicated in a fraud down the line. I’m just saying if I was a producer yesterday Dave wouldn’t have gotten on air



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,808 ✭✭✭squonk


    RIP Nell. She deserves a whole show devoted to her contribution to Irish society, but not Liveline. Marian Finucan Liveline, yes, Duffoon Liveline, absolutely not.

    As a kid I loved the take offs of Nell by Fran Dempsey on a show Mike Murphy was doing. I don’t think it was the Live Mike.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,394 ✭✭✭✭BPKS


    Pat Kenny has Conor Foughnan on talking about the RSA ad.

    It is very visual so there is no point in me playing it says Pat. Absolutely not says Conor.

    They must have been listening to Liveline yesterday.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,499 ✭✭✭LambshankRedemption


    They must have been listening to Liveline yesterday.

    Or maybe Pat has, whats it called? Oh yeah, common sense. Something sadly lacking in Donnybrook between 1.45 and 3pm.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,808 ✭✭✭squonk


    I hope Joe steers clear of Nell McCafferty’s death today. Listening to some of the contributions on Claire Byrne and doing a quick read on her and Nuala O’Faoilean, they paced the way for the easy wins today back when it was hard to get anything over the line. Mary Banotti was also mentioned as her marriage had broken down. This was all in 60s and early 70s Ireland where women’s rights, contraception, LGB issues and marriage breakdown were not even acknowledged.

    It struck me during the same sex marriage referendum that it was pretty much an open goal. Once the goal was fully scored the proponents made a meal out of it. I agreed with the referendum but the reaction in its success was a bit OTT. It really highlights how great people like Nell were. There were no open goals. She had to fight for every yard and keep fighting. I never heard of her doing a lap of honour like the same sex referendum people. She just kept going. I’m delighted to remember her being in the picture of culture and politics growing up. I didn’t understand it all really at the time. I see it now though.

    I think Fluteman Dave is trolling now. Latest update…

    “My fundraiser for the trouble I've gone through has been boosted enormously over the last few days due to publicity on the Joe Duffy show. I can't tell you enough how grateful I am for your generosity. Your donation will help me secure this left handed RudallRose flute that I've wanted for so long. Once I get it, I'll post videos for you to all hear me playing it. Thanks again so much.”

    All the trouble he’s gone through. lol. The fund is up to just over €4000 now. Crazy!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,473 ✭✭✭✭zell12


    She was being nice to you. Angry Nell would look in the other direction

    Pat needs to take some lessons from the maestro. You play the tv advert, talk over it, play it again, describe it, play it again and comment on it.

    A few digs thrown between Shay and Joe earlier.

    Joe joking that Shay's family comprised most of his audience.

    Shay didn't retort, just lined up a song and introduced it as "BITTER...sweet symphony..." with the emphasis on bitter. 😃

    Chisliers: Out of control in de Capital.

    Luas: Drugs for sale up and down de carriages.

    Bible: Anti Woman burk, says Joe.

    Shay complaining whoy is Joe so always so bitter.
