    Got a phone call from a friend who mentioned that their aunt in todays referendum voted "Yes" because in their aunts very words "I didn't want Gerry to get in!"

    :eek:

    ...Yes, you read that right! :pac:

    Now this is NOT a thread about the referendum (thats HERE) - rather would anyone be willing to mention anything daft that they have seen others do in the past or are doing at the mo!

    I just laughed when I heard the above this evening.
    Some people really don't have a clue - do they! :pac:

    I tried blue cheese for the first time a couple of weeks ago, it was a strange flavour but it was actually nice enough.

    The amount of people calling it an election is crazy.

    Maybe she might be a wise woman, a no vote might trigger unstability in the government (a la Greece), leading to rifts, fallouts and eventual dissolution of the Dáil. Cue a waiting SF ready to pick up the scraps of an electorate disgruntled with FG/Lab and still wary of FF.


    Or she could just be a dumb bint:pac:

    That reminds of the story of an old women voting in the Referendum for the Good Friday Agreement who wrote "I don't want abortion." on her ballot!
