Scent of a library and bookshop.

Peak Tubridy.

You're like the Willy Wonka of scents.

Well done!

All this trouble because one person did an awful fart in the K Club one time.

I hate this.

It seems to be a thing ok.

Allow free advertising of heavily overpriced items under the premise that it's great to shop local.

I'm all for supporting local businesses but if they rip the balls out of it and charge €8 for a bar of soap or €30 for a candle, then I'll buy elsewhere.

Bringing up death now makes no scents.

The fresh smell of formaldehyde always takes me back.

Can’t be much of a “friend”, so.

Unless he's retiring I doubt he's going too far.

Bellbottoms

What, did he just do a "gay voice" ? Before going to an ad break.

TheHomeService

Just checked Scent Ireland’s website. I can’t find any domestic units, all for hotels, retail & offices.

No prices either.

Welsh Megaman

Well, this a real toe-tapper. :pac:


Just re-release ‘Mandinka’!

In a flash of understanding, in a lightbulb moment, it’s now clear to me what Ryan’s ideal career would be

He could be part of a double act selling stuff that nobody wants to people who can’t sleep, turn on the tv at 4.30 in the morning, and watch teleshopping channels.

“I really don’t believe you can create the smell of an old library, stale whisky and rancid farts, it’s quite amazing. Where do I buy it?”

sligojoek

That was some dreary sh1te.

What? Who is he talking about?

Nobody in particular.

He just wanted to remind us of what a self-righteous weasel he is.

Promoting Roundstone again... through quiz questions this time.

That's right. According to expert virologist Ryan Tubridy, we'll have a vaccine very soon. He "promises" us.

Other promises of his include, "Santy is still coming to all the kids. Definitely. 100%.It's a promise" (wonder does he fancy footing the bill for the parents who have lost their jobs or seen their income fall this year?)

and

"it's only going to be a socially distanced Halloween/Christmas for one year".

I suspect you don't believe him.

Anyway Dublin is a great spot for a break. (post lockdown of course)

mistersifter

The point is that he has should not be trying to portray himself as some authoritative voice on the pandemic.

He is in no position whatsoever to be making promises to people. I have yet to hear an expert medical professional tell people not to worry because a vaccine is coming soon.

Tubridy, however, is absolutely desperate to be seen as Mammy of the Nation and has absolutely no problem coming out which this kind of empty-headed patronising shíte to build the Mr Kind image.

Dublin is decent enough for a break though, you're right about that.

Bellbottoms

I've been thinking that he has started to see himself as an Irish Walter Cronkite. The person that the nation turns to for guidance in times of trouble and upheaval.

Indeed but if the nation ever faced the likes of what the french faced in 1940 when the tanks were thundering through the Ardennes he an his likes would be off down to Vichy with Petain or the Irish version of him Im certain of it, all talk no trousers country is full of em

A strange assertion to claim to know what RT would have done in Vichy France.

Not that it proves much but if breeding counts for anything when there were stands to be taken closer to home it's worth noting that his grandad put his life on the line.

I don't believe that turns RT into a potential action man but Todd Andrews part in the War of Independence and Civil War are matters of historical record.

Level 5 looming. Tomorrow morning's sermon should be a cracker.
