Ah ya it was at the end, it was a grand place when Christy himself was running things. I drink up in Mickey Phelan's these days, quiet pub with not much happening but it suits me down to ground, I've great old banter with the regulars.

No I would not say it has anything to do with his nationality, would be the same if he was french.

Banned from every pub in UK - drunk Tipp man

A Tipperary man has been banned from every pub in the United Kingdom for a year after he was found drunk in Windsor Castle, just yards from Queen Elizabeth's private apartments.

Thirty-two-year-old Robert Pennefather from Mullinahone appeared in court yesterday after he was arrested by police in November. He had climbed over an eight-foot gate.

Judge Howard Riddle said he was satisfied that Mr Pennefather posed no risk, but he sentenced him to two weeks in jail and fined him £1,000.

The incident recalled another in 1982, when Michael Fagan sat at the end of the Queen's bed talking to her before police arrived.

Sure his mother was a Ryan from Borrisokane, married a travelling door to door sales man called Pennefather, it near killed her poor mother.

14,104 of you in Tipp voted Michael Lowery into office in the last election. Oh the shame.

Is transport not an important consideration in the local economy where you live?

I know that hideously un-funny McSavage sketch has been done to death, but I wonder if it's too late to point out that Ireland's heavily centralised system of Government leaves voters with little other option but to cetralise their issues in turn. If you had a guy in your constituency who delivered on local issues like Michael Lowry has done, your countrymen would elect him too.

This is not a Tipperary phenomenon... it's not even a rural phenomenon.

Also the fact they continue to vote for that crook Lowry in their droves is another reason to be ashamed to be from the Premier County.
