    I can see thread on this has been closed...and can't see another.
    But it seems Joshua has taken the range rover for another spin while drunk

    Who knows the full story. Dangerous to raise a kid in close proximity to a viewer of child porn.

    You couldn't make this up, I noted during the last episode the indo seemed to have a recepie / article from Rachel every day of the week for months, seemed like a lame attempt to deflect away from the story. Here we go again I guess, must get my cooking utensils ready.

    Is maith an scáthán súil charad.

    He served a whopping 3.5 months of his 15 month sentence...
    He was caught drink driving last month...
    And now seemingly he has crashed his car while drunk...
    On temporary release...so why wasn't he locked back up?
    This isn't going to end well.

    At least he's a bit of a rebel, and if you look at a lot of family's around the world there's always one, I suppose in my family I'm the odd one out.
    Never drank a drove, but I'm the quirky oddball who goes against the grain and have no shame or blame...

    Throwing stones at glasshouses and all that, I worked in their gardens in the 90's great family and I have fond memories picking fruit and pruning apple trees, maintaining a maze etc..

    the problem for those with privilege is that they are tabloid fodder whenever they do anything wrong and on places like boards you'll have hundreds of derogatory comments.

    If it was "under privileged" it would not make any headlines

    Sounds like he's on the spectrum to me. Surely nobody could be that thick.

    Apparently it was his father who crashed the car, and he’s taking the rap for it.

    If I’m reading it right he had already been off the road for drink driving prior to this incident?

    Not everyone has it is as easy as other people think.

    It's also quite unusual these days for a young lad to never having completed the Junior Cert. That stands out reading the article.

    It appears he is a troubled soul, it must be tough on the family. It shows all the hallmarks of addiction issues. One thing....

    If I was trying my upmost to temper a child, just out of prison, the last thing I am doing is handing out keys to a Range Phucking Rover? Ah ah, that is a big no no. They could not possibly have know he was previously breathalysed? I am wary of this because the Examiner rarely refused ink either? If he was arrested last month how come he was not charged?

    A Garda spokesman said: "Arising from the incident a man, 20s, was arrested for ‘driving while intoxicated’. He was taken to Midleton Garda Station and later released without charge. Investigations are ongoing."

    If he was drinking and driving he would have been charged.

    I respect that the Examiner are trying to sell papers and all, but....

    It's certainly possible but I'm sure that would have already been brought up by his solicitor at his previous trial.

    Says a lot about the families cooking that he prefers prison food and will go to serious lengths to get it.

    Very rare for an upper middle class kid with privileges especially

    Didnt he get caught with copious amounts of weed and get locked up this year for 15 months? Quarter of 15 is 3.75 months, so 11 months really, how much tr did he get?

    I don't think any of us are sure if they gave him the keys to the car.

    That happened a few weeks weeks ago so I don't think he'd be off the road until the court day.(Well most people I know who've got caught drink driving have driven around for months until their court date.)

    Yup, that stood out to me in a previous article. Like, I didn't go to the most ritzy school, just a bogstandard community and even at my school, people who didn't do the Leaving Cert were considered wasters, never mind the Junior Cert.
