    They should bring back the big fat mama matrons to run the hospital wards.

    They did things right whether you liked them or not.

    And get rid of the overpaid jumped up little farts with business diplomas who think the world operates according to what it says on their clipboards.

    Agreed. When I had my first son in the Rotunda 16 years ago the (large sized) matron kept everyone on their toes. The staff from consultants down were all in fear of her.

    reminds of a b&b i stayed in (back in early 80`s), no ensuite those days and the bathroom was down 3 flights of stairs so needing to go I made use of an empty bottle i had, coke came in big glass bottles then.. put in the boot of the car and forgot about until I was stopped 3 weeks later by the British Army at a check point on the border, soldier searched my boot and zeroed in on the filled bottle, petrol bomb maybe? Anyway he asked me what was in it and I said very little, he took a sniff, closed the bottle, looked at me and said be on your way!

    Be great if he drank it.

    Must've been a taxi driver. Most conversations start with:

    "Now Joe, I'm not racist, but......" <insert racism here>

    I guess it must be the longest period on LL without disease or death being discussed....

    "family home"
    Where did this phrase come from? All it does is throw up emotions to the listener.
    Sure it is just a house

    Does that woman not understand that buying a buy-to-let is a business venture. It can fail.

    This caller in a nutshell:

    I'm a multiple property owner Philip and I refuse to sell any of them to make ends meet.

    Great question Philip. I lost my entire share portfolio. What's the difference between me and her.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,473 ✭✭✭Wacker The Attacker

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,886 ✭✭✭✭Roger_007

    This is like someone who lost money backing a horse getting air time to complain about it.:mad:

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