    Now this piece on Clare was a joke! Purely because of the 'presenter'. Who was the guy?

    Down from Dublin for the day to see the country side. Dodgy shirt and he couldn't even shave for the occassion.

    Where did they get him? Nerdy and afraid of the outdoors. Walking around lost and cold looking. Then his commentary about the outdoors and bleak Clare was a joke shop.

    The Shannon region needs a tourism boost and idiots like this on prime time television will not help their cause.

    Also what was with the afternoon tea after his 'hiking' around the Burren?
    You could see the face on the Barman watching him takie a little sip of his Guinness. He was disgusted at the Timberland boy trying Guinness for the first time.

    If you listened at the start you'd know. His name was Paul something or other and he's a travel writer or something along those lines.

    Shave for the occasion? The big occasion of leaving the Pale? What you on about?

    I suppose it was because he was thirsty.

    Are you the barman? You seem to know an awful lot about what he was thinking.


    Are you a disgruntled TV presenter that didn't get the No Frontiers gig OP? You sound very bitter.
