    It was in the Sun I think. Or maybe that was just a dream. That 05 blue audi that was stolen was in the Sun too. Same picture that was posted here and all :D

    The thing is, he is a representative of the RSA, no matter what he should have been belted up properly, doesn't matter if the car wasn't moving, he should be leading by example.

    In saying that, I really couldn't give a fiddlers

    Yes, except 1 of those guys happens to be chairman of the RSA.
    Just waded through this thread, I saw the show, didn't really notice it at the time but Ray Darcy was talking about it the following morning.

    I don't think it's an issue he'll resign over. (Maybe Pat Kenny to replace him!):D

    TBH I'm more annoyed with his response, instead of explaining himself or admiting the mistake, he comes out with the 'Sure that happened ages ago, sure it was in magical TV land anyway!'
    "This was filmed months ago and in very cramped conditions. I have a tendency to hold onto the seatbelt — I don’t know why but that is just the way it is… We were in and out of the car several times going from the GPO in Dublin to a hotel in Ballsbridge.

    "I think most people are smart enough to know that this was not a real-life situation."

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.

    Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles to avoid the DRS fee.

    He does a fantastic radio show on Sunday afternoons during the winter. Tune in next Sunday, I bet he'll address this (overblown out of all hell proportions) issue.

    I don't think anyone would give a shit but for the fact that Gay Byrne rides around on a horse so high that he needs an extension ladder to dismount.

    If you're gonna talk the talk you'd sure as hell better walk the walk.

    How so? can you give me an example of this?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,821 ✭✭✭stimpson


    Looks like Gay makes a habit of this behaviour. Even with 2 cops in the car he still just drapes it over himself and doesn't fasten the buckle.

    I dont mind that one really. Its clearly just a photo setup and Id hope they are not driving around. So his excuse that its not real world would hold water in this case but not in the wogan case.

    Is this a quote? If so, can you point out the source?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,313 ✭✭✭Mr.Boots


    This threads a bit pathetic.
    Like a bunch of bickering old grannies.
    If Gay saved one life with his campaigns then thats enough for me.
    Stop all trying to be so smart and catch "Teacher" out.

    At least one of the back doors is fully open and they are in the process of belting up;) It's like wiping your arse after you do a poo, you don't walk out of the cubicle until you are nice and clean and the pants is pulled back up.
