Irish Water are probably causing this. Putting in their pipes to flood the place and "sure look if you just pay your water charges, we can mend everything!!"

Would Mariah Carey have a larger amount of cash arriving to her on Chrismas Eve than Shane MacGowan from royalties?

Didn't ye pick the right night to come on,with Louis Walsh out in Green Room

This song is bad enough in English

Maybe I'm just not in the merriment mood.....

Skid X

No point to this.

I don't like decent English Language songs being sung in Irish for no reason.

That goes for those gaeltacht kids too. Bah Humbug.

No, there is something odd about it alright. Just doesn't seem right.

Could he not give them a voucher for an electrical store or something?

The vultures at the Toy Show audience get thousands of euro worth of goodies just for sitting through it.

He should have done a live segment from their houses or else recorded a piece from earlier today and showed the devestation proper.

That wasn't good.

It was brilliant!

























Just kidding, that wasn't good.

I love the Irish language.

But I'm always really uncomfortable with this kind of nonsense.

Coolness as gaelige. Never really works.

It's cheaper to get a bunch of kids to sing them in Irish than hire a proper singer to sing them in English, I suppose.

Some of those houses you would need a good week to set them up and the cost would be the same as a small car.

No insurance!......Ah shure don't worry, the rest of us will pick up the bill!

There's no insurance since the floods of 2009. Since then there's been total inaction. Compare that with all the work done in Dublin on the Dodder since 2009 (just look at Ballsbridge) and you'll see where they spend the money.

The bogs have a lot to do with it. Drained to the limit, so they can't act as a sponge. Run off of loose peat blocks the rivers up. Simply blocking a lot of the bogs and trying to return them to what they were would do a lot.

Of course the likes of Michael Fitzmaurice TD and his buddys would be out with the pick axe handles ready to smash the machines of anyone who tries this. And so long as stuff like that goes on we have little hope of solving the situation.

Dredging and draining will work in some spots, but to an extent you're pushing water further downriver to Banagher, Portumna and Limerick.

As a poster said above, cleaning drains would do something but the personnel and money isn't there.

I will have the notepad out after the show to get something going, better than any pension scheme. I'd be hoping to get something up around number 9.

Bizarrely, the East 17 song doesn't feature the word 'Christmas' in the song at all - only some bells at the end (no jokes, please) give it a festive feel.

Muahahaha

have utmost sympathy for them, but blaming the government for this is just pure nonsense when its a problem thats been there for 100's of years.

building houses on flood planes is a complete and utter bullsh*t also.

Its the county councils who gave them planning permission to build on a flood plain. Often against the advice of planners, pressure gets put on county councillors to influence the decision.


Anyway I just got in an hour late and begun watching the recorded show. Up came Jason Byrne- fast forwarded all that, then Louis Walsh, fast forwarded all of that and made it to half way through the flooding segment. That fcuk I missed the dross, it can only go up from here on in.
