Who cares if yer man would lose his job? How on earth can you condone violence to a child (even though I would commit violence to an adult if they touched my child... I know, I know, double standards)

My thoughts exactly. Straight to the garda, never mind some thugs career.

He claimed his son was too intelligent so he looked "out the window" because he was "bored". May have been a smart ass.

And now he has exiled himself to the UK?

Have a feeling that story is exaggerated.

He said he was bright and may have drifted off into a day dream looking out the window, bit of a difference. And who didn't/doesn't.

Sure, but I still think there's more to that story.

Wouldn't be the first time on LL.

you might be right, but even if part of that story is accurate, its disgraceful.

I missed some of it - have to do work when the boss comes near - did he take his child out of the school, or make him go back in the next day. poor child

FYP.

I've been checked once since they brought it in, that was years ago.

But yesterday, within a couple of K of each other, I went by two speed check vans, one a garda one, the other the private type. At least the private one was on a dodgy road, the garda was at the N3/M50 junction heading towards the city.

joe must be delighted that the giro is passing his front door hence the mention

Joe is beginning to sound more and more like one of his cynical callers..

Why who would you have classified as NOT good looking out of the women that were previously running for election, Joe?

Not listening, just thread watching....how is our Joe pronouncing "giro"? Is he going for "jai-row" (as in Bank Giro?) or "jee-row" or some sort of Dublinese concoction of his own.

De Jai-Row D'EYE-tally perhaps?

CountyHurler

"I've got handed a letter from one of our callers"..

That's a fancy phone you've got Joe...

I can imagine all his pent-up feelings of inadequacy overcame him and he was gripped by fear at the thought of having to say "The Giro D'Italia" lahv on air.

Did he at least say EYE-tally as de salt-a-dee-irths pronounce it? Or, as a Clontarf resident, is he too posh for that now?

baldbear

What about eating a 99 or a Cornetto whilst drivig Joe? Sometimes the taste gets me fierce distracted.

neris

pedantic pat

ThisRegard

I'm sure it was a legal type person Joe from the department that wrote the letter.

Would a Whassapp message be included in that loophole????
