PROTEST TRUCK REMOVED FROM ANGLO IRISH BANK AND IMPOUNDED

April 1, 2010 - 11:19am A cement mixer truck which caused disruption outside Anglo Irish Bank in the city centre this morning has been removed and impounded.
The truck was locked with the engine running and abandoned outside the branch on Forster Street.
The mixer is painted red and white and has the words "Toxic Bank" and "Anglo Irish Bank" written across it.
Registration plates were also removed making it difficult to identify the owner.
It'll remain under Garda lock-and-key until the owner comes forward to collect it, according to a Garda spokesperson.

It's about the only thing that truck was good for in the current FF administered economic climate, other than pouring concrete into the grave of an entire generation's hopes and dreams for a future in this country.

Well are you telling me it has no customers at all with savings in there????

If they are serving their normal day to day customer its still doing business so bringing some money in. Better to have that happening than ploughing billions into it and not bringing in some money.

€500K for golf

Highly Salami · 01-04-2010 03:05PM

I think it says €500k for golf. Maybe a reference to Anglo directors loans and expensive golf fees/holidays of said directors?

Lads don't ye keep up to date with the Anglo news at all.

This is about the fact that Anglo spent something close to €500k on golf balls and golf umbrellas and they can now only find a few.
The rest appear to have disappeared.

As they always said seanie had a lot of balls, little did we know. :rolleyes:

Well we own Anglo and as good as own AIB.

I always think how close Anglo is in spelling to biffo's favourite Angola.

Maybe it's because I think he has led us all into the Anglo mindfield and even though HE may have gotten to the safety of the other side, we are all left standing there on the mines. :mad:

It's in reference to the €500k spent of golf BALLS, let alone golf trips!

Should have emptied the drum in the door. Anglo, and their bloody customers have sunk this country well and proper, sod the lot of them.

RubyBlu · 02-04-2010 11:11PM

Well I'm looking forward to sending Mr. Drum in Cape Cod a postcard.

Yes i did ,but it took a lot of phone calls to get all my money out nearly 2 years ago .Not shares but just money on deposit and the ***** gave me the run around .It should be disolved immediately as its our Toxic Bank as somebody more famous than me said recently .
