I'm around the same age as that original caller and the drinking culture was exactly the same fifteen years ago as it is now. The current generation didn't pull it out of their arses. The problem here sounds like the airport/airline/travel agency trying to make a quick buck by peddling as much drink as possible.

They had to apologise to me Joe and I sayz to them:

Also a similar age, and I also remember the drink culture to be about the same.

Ah jesus, back to Jim Larkin.

Here we go again............

ebbsy

Ould fart on now.

Lapin

No point in ringing the DAA Joe.

Their CEO was one of the judges at the Rose of Tralee last night.

I reckon he has a hangover the size of Cairo today.

le la rat

As soon as he opened his mouth I knew it.

ButtersSuki

Why doesn't Joe say "don't do the accent" now? :rolleyes:;);)

Meathlass

Going to the Euros last year - 5 men from Cork in their late 50s/early 60s brought cans on board with them and drank steadily all through the flight. They were harmless and laughing about bush drinking on the plane. It's not just the kids!


FFS Larkin! Who cares what his accent was?

Joe's idea of a post Leaving Cert celebration would be a trip to the model railway museum followed by a nice long mass read by Fr Brian D'Arcy and then a meal in Burdock's washed down with a cheeky glass of shandy.

I nearly spat out me jagermeister laughing at that:D

SEPT 23 1989

Because he was from Liverpool?

turtleshead

Ah here, going to save myself the ear ache

Bloody Jim Larkin again. Does Joe really need to keep this one going?

ButtersSuki

We need David Norris to balance out this Dublinese.

There's a flippin week of it next week across all of Radio 1 - did you miss the promo before Lahv Lahn?

Dan Jaman

I think we established yesterday that Peter O'Toole sounded nothing like Larkin, ffs.
Neither did Kirk Douglas, Charlie Chaplin or Rudolf Valentino.

le la rat

Next week. What did Jim Larkins farts smell like

Degringola

Oh gawwdd, kill me now..

ButtersSuki

The Cult of Larkin is growing again.....only in Clontarf and Montrose Joe.

ebbsy

Get back to the lads getting sloshed on da plane.

Lapin

Who gives a toss what Larkin sounded like?

The most important thing to know about anyone from Liverpool is whether they are a red or a blue.

Although if someone told Joe tha Larkin the socialist was a blue toffee, it might confuse him.

Roger_007

"The Cult of Larkinism". They meet every Saturday night on the Hill of Tara and dance naked around a fire!

Dan Jaman

Who the feck would give a sh!t what he sounded like?

ButtersSuki

We need answers to the important questions:
What were his favourite pair of socks?
How many sugars did he take in his tea?
When did he have his first bowl a coddle?
When did he first meet Bang Bang?
Did he get any Cheeky Charlies for Christmas?

An Claidheamh

Someone should ring in to do a Rashers Tierney voice.

artful_codger

I couldn't give a sh1te about some dead Trade Unionist.
