    Thanks JA, but I'm genuinely feeling a bit poorly today so don't think I can handle Joe being fawned over by RTE colleagues.

    Just watching a bit of it now.. walks on like he's lord of the manor, and recites a few of his stock "jokes"... Here's a couple..

    "My daughter came in the other night and said 'A dog has just won Britain's Got Talent'.. And I said, I didnt even know David McSavage had entered Britain's Got Talent"

    "I was walking down the street and I saw a man crying and I said what's wrong 'have your kids emigrated'... The man said 'no'. He kept on crying and I said 'Did somebody die?' and the man said 'no'.... I asked him 'Did you have split up with your wife?'... And the man said 'no. I'm the Director General of RTE' " (press button on canned laughter machine)

    Isnt he a very brave man slagging of the Director General of an organisation you cant get fired from...

    There's a major lapse in one of the gent's toilets, the latch is broken on one of the cubicles. One of them hormone sexuals or "Al Kaaiiii- dah" could assault you Joe with a bomb Joe. It's a security risk Joe.

    Far be it from me to agree with any of the conspiracy theory loonies that pop up on Liveline every now and then, but I find myself agreeing with this one. The "ah sure it's fine, isn't that the way it always was" attitude is what's got us into the mess we're in.

    And he's not in the least bit hysterical, in fact is very measured and reasonable about it - most unusual! Compare and contrast to the taxi driver from yesterday's debacle :eek:

    Not annoyed at him poniting out a flaw, if there is one.

    Just at the way he's presenting it.
