    http://m.independent.ie/style/celebrity/celebrity-news/south-dublins-jet-set-are-back-enjoying-the-sun-31352321.html

    So checking the news online this morning (thanks kids for the lie in!!) and come across this peach. Front page of their website. Crux is people are now holidaying again and the southside jet set are back up to six holidays a year instead of the quiet 4 during the recessions. There's lots of quotes from socialites and the owner of a boutique (!) but not one named source - shocker.

    I think its time to just block independent.ie from my phone because of course the clicks mean sales which makes more money Mr. O'Brien et al.

    Another Niamh Horan beaut.

    'Vacation' is no longer a dirty word and it's become okay again to talk about summer plans.

    Vacation.......said no Irish person ever

    And doesn't everyone ask about holidays :confused: people in work, your barber, your taxi man.

    Will every sh*tty lifestyle mag piece get its own thread?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,342 ✭✭✭fatknacker


    Some people like to take a few holidays because they can.

    OMG! Scumbags. Just leave everyone else to wallow in their filthy backyards with their 10 childers and nothing but a garden hose to play with.

    Saw the headline. Gagged. Presumed it was by Niamh Horan, yup, sure was. Didn't click this time. I usually would just to read the comments saying "this isn't news" and "who?" But not this time, that's what they want us to do.... Insufferable sh*te.

    Read a bit of that online,

    But the number-one destination for yummy mummies and their families has emerged as Quinta do Lago.With the constant 30-degree heat, five-star golf courses or sandy white beaches in Luz, Silves and Sagres, the Irish have brought the party to town.

    The part about Silves is interesting as it must now be a wonder of the world as how come a beach got there as it is in the foot of the mountains and about an hours drive from the sea,Luz is just a small town more known infamously for the. Abduction of maddie McCann , and Sagres is the most southerly point of portugal always windy and a Mecca for surfers.

    The Indo a great two minute read of your Sunday morning...

    her husband has been a naughty boy

    good to see such specimen being held up as examples to the rest of us proles

    http://www.independent.ie/style/celebrity/celebrity-news/no-im-not-in-jail-husband-of-virginia-macari-following-conviction-for-fraud-31118714.html

    and more....

    http://www.independent.ie/style/celebrity/celebrity-news/virginia-macaris-fianc-was-friends-with-7m-heist-mastermind-30569526.html
    Despite being convicted on 17 counts of loan fraud - totted up at €4.1m - in a court in Oslo less than two weeks ago, Kaste Dahl remains remarkably cheery, chipper even.




    "I'm certainly not in jail, as reported," Kaste told me yesterday on the phone from his home in Marbella, where he is staying with his Cork-born fiancée, Virginia Macari. They live near the sea on Mistral Beach.

    It's silly, but have seen papers print a lot worse, with offensive comments, borderline racism, fuelling hatred and so on.

    That article is just...stoooopid.

    Article for empty vessels!!!

    it could have been made into an interesting social article....my experience is that yes, leisure travel is booming again as people can afford to start travelling again, but no, it's re/written to include "celebrities" and is pure filler stuff.

    Explain how.

    Chrome on lollipop (that's a weird phrase when you type it out).


  • Posts: 1,654 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Its really pathetic. Severe lack of class by all. No true celebrity would ever want to be mentioned here nor would consider travel to those places as a fitting break.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 72 ✭✭cleopatra11


    What a vomit inducing piece of tripe.... journalism indeed...

    In all fariness, what do you expect to see Niamh Horan writing about in the celebrity sectino of the Indo? Theoretical nuclear physics?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,368 ✭✭✭Ardent


    Nauseating stuff. A reminder of why I don't buy or read the Independent.

    But I guess there are some people out there who lap up this sh*t.
