      Just looking at D'Arcy saying that he wants the nation to lose one million pounds. He's not exactly a man I would look to for leadership. I'd almost put on five stone just to spite him.

      <old man voice> Shur aren't we losing 500,000 pounds payin' his feckin' wages as it is! </old man voice>








      I'll get my coat and just slip out quietly now. Sorry.

      I missed Monday's and Tuesday's shows, but the last three days of this week Ray has played a David Bowie song as his opener. A variation on the TodayFM days when he would play the same song for days on end.

      In fairness, I think it's an anti-religious stance, not just Catholic schools.

      But the answer for this woman is simple enough: Maire Mullarney wrote the book on it many years ago - 'Anything school can do, you can do better'. So she should keep him out of the primary school system and help him to learn himself.

      They've prepared him well for that road by calling him Reuben.

      ya have to wonder about parents sometimes.

      we had a customer in the shop about 2yrs back, only a young fella of about 20 or so, and he was called Octavian.

      who the fup does that to a kid ?

      Ironically, Reuben is a good biblical name - old testament etc.

      Only heard a bit of her interview. Think Ray said that she did not follow any religion (I may have heard wrong though)

      Does this mean than some of the Rachels, Adams, Josh's, Aaron's, Daniel's, John's, Anna's, Chloe's, Mary's, Rebecca's, Peter's, Paul's and Stephen's have not been named in honour of their biblical namesakes either:eek:

      It was definitely Ray. I remember him getting stick off the crew when he said he was more of Munster supporter and that he had a greater affinity with them than Leinster. Coincidentally it was around the same time Munster were winning everything and Leinster were sh1t.

      I suppose the emperor has spent so much on the new clothes, he can't lose face sending them back...so to speak.
