    I'd say it will be an interesting show, obviously the only possible topic is John Hume.

    Maybe not tomorrow but certainly sometime this week the Stardust, one of his pet topics, will have to be re-visited, given Mrs. Keegan's sad passing during his holidays. Expect to hear from the daughter.

    I don't follow Joe on Twitter (I was blocked, then unblocked!) but I assume he, naturally, uses it as a platform to promote himself and the show. The fact that he posts fewer tweets when he's off work is hardly a basis for inventing a claim that he's away in France — as far as I can tell, this France thing is a complete myth.

    You are right to point out the fallacy of "a loss of earnings". No doubt Duffy's obscene fees have been carefully negotiated in a way that allows him ample time for holidays, and in this way, a bank holiday does not truly represent a loss of earnings.

    Is it “a complete myth”? Do you know whether he is in France or not, factually?

    I don't, no. Do you know if he was on the trans-Siberian railway?

    Well I suppose we're both in the dark, so.

    It's possible, he was on de'Orient Express before...
    Train-lover Joe Duffy indulges in a taste of true luxury as he travels from Venice to Paris on the Orient Express.

    Yes but you are the one claiming it to be a myth, not me.

    Joe had a lot in common with John Hume.
    Joe was president of the students union of trinity. Fighting for the rights of students. Himself and Marion finucain burnt their bras in protest.

    20,000 € for late Late wardrobe. € 73.000 for farcy to swan around the country. Worse., I just got a reminder about my licence. Should I do a John Hume type of civil disobedience.?

    It was the same when Jack Charlton died. Has beens, never were beens and even the odd gombeens, falling over themselves to praise and each repeating what the previous one said. It does get tiresome.

    John Hume

    BOI scam

    Financial ombudsman

    Domino effect of Covid. Pregnant woman refused use of toilet.

    What'll happen if pubs don't open? Specially in rural areas.

    Prob Bertie actually now that I think of it, Mr. Duffy being a Fianna Failer and all and another chance for someone in the media to lick Bertie’s hole so to speak as they say PC.

    Today:

    Going to the tielet during Covid
    Will the pubs open next Monday

    (But mostly John Hume)

    Joe back again today:

    Bank of Irleand scams again but this time with a twist! Moved on from just randomly listing peoples mess ups to pointing the finger and whatever generic financial regulator comes to mind.

    John Hume - this will take some time.

    Access to toilets - obviously pregent woman turned away from an inn (hotel) just like our lady Mary queen of heaven!

    Half of a reference to the pubs not opening

    On tha basis that Syl Fox had a full programme dedicated to him for his 79th birthday, the whole programme should be given over to John Hume.

    I get the impression that Joe wasn't a fan of his for whatever reason, either way they were intellectually miles apart.

    I am actually looking forward to tomorrow's show, because although it might turn into a veritable book-signing, Joe Duffy probably has more insight into Northern Irish politics than most broadcasters in RTÉ — which isn't saying much for RTÉ

    I'd say it will be an interesting show, obviously the only possible topic is John Hume.

    Ugh!

    Used to be always getting these toilet visitors to the library wanting to use the staff loo, and if we let them in our one and only staff WC would be left unusable after. Constant arguments about it until a public one was installed.
