    I bet you even learned a lot but don't let go of those rosary beads ;)

    I’m not religious. I just think the message might be lost that daily lifetime medication is necessary to protect your partner from what is a deadly virus...not that it’s ok to have unprotected sex with someone hiv positive.

    His documentary used to be on the RTÉ Player, don’t know if it’s still there. But it’s a great watch.

    Was a great documentary about him on RTE over a year ago.

    Great story 5 years ago

    He ran out of money and looked for external funding

    Realistically he’s opened a bizzare scrapyard in Enniscrone thats filled with rusting obscure vehicles

    It’s an eyesore now

    I don't understand a word he is saying.

    He reminds me of your man from Father Ted who presented the Eurovision song contest and Ted couldn't understand a word he said when he came off the stage.

    Logical follow on from the previous guest...funeral directors.

    A HIV positive person in a first-world country in the 21st Century is no more likely to prematurely require the services of a funeral director than anyone else. You mentioned removing your children if he came to their school. For their sake, I hope they haven't inherited your ignorance and prejudice. Try educating yourself.

    If you saw the line up for the Late Late and saw a guy who is HIV positive, embalmer and funeral director on the same night you would run a mile.

    This is very interesting and not even a hint of misery.

    It's behind some hoardings but there's a great view from the pitch and putt course. Good fun trying to hit a jumbo with a few golf balls.

    Ah here in Spirit zone now, hurry up and get the next guest on.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,045 ✭✭✭Icsics


    Ah love him & the documentary from a few years ago was the best RTE have done


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,227 ✭✭✭plodder


    Seriously?! I’d remove my children if he came to their school. He’s not giving factual advise. He’s a social media influencer as a result of his sexual stupidity.
    5th or 6th years I think they said, which is fair enough. It's not primary school.

    Anyone else isn’t dependent on daily lifetime medication.
    Yes I’d be concerned if the message young children received was that it is ok to have unprotected sex irrespective of the persons sexual orientation.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,326 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Wow.

    That story was amazing, and somewhat comforting at the same time.

    You are talking nonsense. He doesnt just go into schools and say it is ok to have unprotected sex.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Needs more about the plane.

    I watched it live on youtube over day they were trying to get it there up the coast and on road.

    Edit: scrap that. :)

    I think most families have a similar story. I know there are several in my family from different bereavements. I'm not overly religious but it makes you think...

    Tubridy would be asking the entire time about how the Covid deaths were handled.

    It could be easily taken as that if his statement was taken out of context and the students didn’t appreciate the huge efforts he goes to to protect his partner.
