Who do you think has been the funniest caller of the year so far ? I think it was that woman Eleanor who kept pronouncing the word paid as Padd

Friend of the show Simon Parsons from a few months back with the tolls "issues" so to speak, he be blaming those complicated computers and that...

Simon Parsons, of New Haven Bay, Balbriggan, Co Dublin, had been the subject of a Dublin District Court ruling in October, following an action by the National Roads Authority (NRA).

He was not present to defend the case in October, leading to a judgement in default amounting to €13,208, plus €1,004 in legal costs.

He was not able to use a computer and he argued that the eflow system discriminated against people with limited ability.

He also claimed he paid the tolls at a Topaz garage and he had all his receipts for every time he used the M50, which incurs a €3.10 charge.

I can actually believe him.
Not to be unkind, but he looks a bit glaikit and having to be on top of everything techno in today's wurdulded might be a bit much. I mean, he paid half of them, and claims he has receipts for all of them, so maybe he's actually telling the truth as he sees it.
Other than that he's great Joe show fodder, and I look forward to hearing Joe mangle his case.

Perhaps he thought ye pay de toll once and that covers the outbound and inbound journey for the day, the figures nearly tally exactly...

He said Mr Parsons paid for 207 journeys on the M50, but had not paid for 210 trips.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if he was given (or picked up) the wrong information from somebody.
I was told total BS by an employee of Eircom and basing my dialling habits on that, went on to spend much more than I'd planned for that billing period. They, of course, denied it could ever have happened.

Ditto. BT,DT, Still got the drawerful of massive t-shirts.

PeterTheNinth · 23-02-2017 2:18pm

That "sad" tone that Aine Lawlor adopts when she is speaking about issues with which she sympathizes really annoys. She should be more professional and just ask the questions dispassionately.

Some might say I'm easily annoyed. And some might be right.

She seems inordinately interested in the matter, for a national broadcaster.

Aine Lawlor has been far too casual on the show for a while now. Can she not call the man after the show ?

It's gas. You will have social justice warriors on looking for equality and an end to discrimination in society. Yet here we are a minister looking for special treatment for Irish people... because they are from a particular country, and Nora Casey setting up her own organisation JUST for women.

Inside job. Knew his name and that he'd have plenty of cash. So he was ratted on by family, friend or a neighbour.

Roger_007 · 23-02-2017 2:58pm

What about cake shops, Eileen?

Red Kev · 23-02-2017 2:58pm

€1200 for a second hand mountain bike isn't a lot. A decent MTB will cost over €2500 easy enough. Damo calling it as a Rolls Royce of bikes is a bit out of touch.
