    Someone needs to explain to the 8 year old script writers of fc what estate agents are. Imagine going to view a house in the company of the four adult residents and also meeting the local Looney on the way out ( with the lovely smell of burnt biscuits in the background)

    Ah sure they weren't really interested viewers they were on the 'Crime Tour of Carraigstown', next stop Barry's old place, before a quick look behind the Hungry Pig, Decco's House to check out the sofa, the corner outside the spar where there are still some fragments of glass from a broken tailight, then over to Jane's attic and finally a saunter around the allotments to see the dishevelled carrots.

    They're coming back next week to view Bob's sitting room where Turlough met his reflective end ... A few burnt biscuits won't put these ghouls off!

    Greasy has money to invest in Caddles business now. Last week he couldn't pay Flynn back. Leo offered to help Carol manning the phones! She never gets calls on that mobile.

    Carol doesn't actually have a cab office. Wasn't it destroyed in the fire in September 2013?

    No, I completely quoted the wrong post.

    Still, your post was obviously not directed at that poster :rolleyes: you asked how something could be passed for viewing!!! Nothing worse than certain posters coming to the thread to derail it to cause tension.....

    Bit of misunderstanding. I have just realised that I quoted the wrong post from you. I meant to quote the post about Charlie's posh use of the word 'perfect.' That was fooking atrocious.

    Btw, love the Tommy joke.

    Fair enough!! I admittedly did feel it was borderline bad taste comment from me tbh!!

    He quoted my post which was borderline risqué and questioned how anyone could clear "that" for viewing. I do not think I was being over dramatic assuming the post was directed at me on that evidence!! And i definitely don't think my reply was anyway wrote with intention to cause tension. You will see by my posts I do anything but! So all good.

    MOD:
    Ok folks please stay on topic and quit the squabbling on thread. It appears that there was a mix up and the incorrect post was quoted, plus there was no intention to direct it at the poster but then another confusion occurred and the other poster thought it was directed at them. Let's leave it there please.

    Charlie - oh that would be pehhh-fec.

    Thanks for the pehhh-fec way to write what Charlie said. I was struggling. It has to go down as one of FCs most pathetic moments.

    Yes she does. A virtual office. It's called Caddle's cabs. It's on the app store! Marketed well:

    "Get yourself a global taxi empire at the touch of a button, childcare included."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,847 ✭✭✭desbrook


    Carol uses the latest technogy - a biro , reporters jotter and 2005 Nokia . A winning combination. So much so that Nina uses the same biro and jotter 😉

    So now that Charlie has started employing teachers in the community centre , the possibilities are endless :

    Dermish can teach a class on how carrying a briefcase and wearing a tie will qualify you as a chartered accountant

    Doug can point out the advantages of turning your head right right around,, 'Exorcist' -style, while simultaneously changing a timing-belt

    Cass can give courses in how to make a tiny allotment yield tons of fresh veg and make a good living for at least two people

    Caddle can demonstrate how simple it is to run a taxi empire using just a mobile phone, a piece of string and a toilet-roll insert

    Bela could teach the rudiments of sitting sour-faced all day in a fancy restaurant with an empty cup

    Paul can show how wearing a long black coat makes you an instant businessman

    At the Mags Kelly's Community College of Life Skills, a whole new career may be right on your doorstep!

    Anyone else have any thoughts on how Charlie can enrich the lives of Carringstown residents by using the Centre as a Seat of Learning ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,611 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    The best class and probably most beneficial for sales and cost margins would be the Restaurant Tomato Business. How to run a busy restaurant using only tomatoes.

    Robbie can teach how to give Flynn a single malt in one shot when in the previous one he had a port bottle and a wine measure in his hands.

    Ama can teach how to be the world's grumpiest nurse - scolding a doctor after making a life saving procedure.

    Dean can teach how to look at shelves in a Spar while taking to three different people and buy nothing.

    Robbie could teach magic . Suddenly having money to invest in Carols biro and jotter when days previous he hadn't a fewgrand to pay Flynn.

    The possibilities are endless.

    Burying your wife without telling anyone might not go down to well, though?

    Edit. You beat me to it.

    Oh there would be a long list of willing Magicians; Most of them professional in Vanishing Acts, Deegan of course would get the teaching job because he managed to vanish for the longest - but I reckon Rachel would be a close second, and now Michael is practicing the art.

    Doug can also teach yoga. His ability to move his body, particularly his neck in any angle at rapid speed is second to none.

    Bob can teach the art of sweeping the street for hours, something he learnt from Christs Phelan and Norris Cole.

    Whilst Dr. On Your Doorstep can teach the methods he uses to diagnose any illness by telapathy as he passes by you on the street/in the pub/in Spar.

    Charlie could give elocution lessons :D.

    Orla could give a class on how not to let an innocuous ear infection escalate into my son needs a head transplant! Very reassuring course for all first time mothers and fathers.

    Robbie (mega talented) can give classes in avoiding any conversation with Paul in case he realises you stole his stock of cars.
