It must be rubbish having that, though. I'd hate to be as sensitive to nut dust in the air. I mean, I can't stand Country music but I can always boot the guitarist in the nuts... err... I mean, move away.

CountyHurler

I was told there would be no peanuts on the plane Joe, and when I was boarding, there was Mr Peanut sitting up the back of the plane..

I've been on lots of flights where they make that nut announcement, something about it getting in the air vents and spreading through the plan. Didn't mind at all its not as if we survive on plumpinut this side of the world

God no, much better to stop the whole world from ever consuming peanuts again, EVER!!! :rolleyes:

I was on a flight from the Canaries a few years ago and just after take off there was an announcement that due to a passenger having an allergy, no peanuts would be served during the flight.

Women get extra time because in general they have a lower lung capacity than men.

This puzzles me why would you even want to be in Army

Dan Jaman

Wish he'd stop calling them 'ladies'. A lot of them ain't.

Lapin

I didn't know his son was in the Irish Army !

We'll in fairness if it's posing a threat to somebody's health or whatever, surely people can go a few hours without nuts (excuse that!!)

No it's not that. It's because men always know a short-cut.:D

Has this lad ever seen the inside of a woman's handbag.......they could survive the north pole for 3 months with the contents

Why don't I believe that Moll is hilarious

Probably because that was the most unconvincing ad I've ever heard for ANYTHING!!!

And because they keep stopping to ask for directions.

high heels?

Sharons husband was an inch to small to be a seaman :pac:

Hang off a door to grow taller. Ok.

Half Bat half Man.

Dan Jaman

The door was unhinged, Joe.

CountyHurler

"he must have been unhinged"...

*..Tumbleweed.. *

sligojoek

Door.. Unhinged. Nice one Joe

sudzs

"equally better things"

He sounds like Walter Mitty

A picture of the Irish Navy.

Was he unhinged? No, but the door was.

so rude

pc7

Was that an echo

CountyHurler

I KNOW THAT I KNOW THAT

That man is making a lot of good points, and should be given a bit of respect.

JM Skipton

"I know that..I know that...." he is getting into bad form again:D

jOE...jOE...joe...JOE!!!

Would love to have seen Joe's face when he said "I never doubted ya"

And still €78,000 les than what he earns.

if he is going to get narky with every second caller he should find another job

Harry Angstrom

The French didn't have to do much rebuilding after the Second World War, considering they surrendered after about half an hour.

I had €378k in my mind but I saw this :

Liveline presenter Joe Duffy was paid €378,000 in 2011 which has dropped by a fifth to €300,000. (from here)

Still incredible money for hassling grieving relatives for an hour a day.

bigroad

Well said Sir.

SEPT 23 1989

democracy does not work we need something else:D

quinrea01

If ever a man was so unsuited to his job it has to be Joe. He has no patience with callers and clearly has his own agendas which he pushes regardless of anyone else's views.

JM Skipton

22 families, so to speak, here to fore......

FourFourRED

Vote for nobody, great idea. Where do they find these callers?

FourFourRED

Are they talking about the latest Game of Thrones episode now?

Dan Jaman

Poisoned wine? Utter cobblers, knock it off the shelf with your elbow, oops how clumsy.

Lapin

Why not pour the wine down the sink and just go out and buy another bottle.



Jesus the God line is very bad there.

ThisRegard

No hanging up on a barrister with the rude Bad Line line.

Lapin

Ah FFS Joe, you've cut people off for having better lines than this.

This is torturous.

is he phoning from the bottom of a well?
