I reckon Ray will challenge David Hall to a game of Speed Monopoly at the end.

Just for fun, Ray used to be Kildare Monotony Under 15 Champion by the way, etc ...

Fixed that there

The biggest joke in the country is how hard it is for a bank to repossess a house, this means zero foreign banks want to come in to the market and give competitive rates.

Wouldn’t it be better to have more homeless than for the banks to come up with another spurious excuse as to why they’re not lending or charging higher rates...

Atlantic Dawn

This country is a joke.

Yes, I checked. One of the Aislings isn’t happy with me!

Fair play to you, they blatantly stole that from Micky Flanagan (as you said).

Look we won't fix that. All we can do is try and support the homeless and people weaker and in more trouble than ourselves.

Text HOME to 50300 to help focus ireland help those who are homeless and text CARE TO to help raise funds against cancer.

Welsh Megaman

They will now follow this item with a family trashing their own house to win a prize.

:rolleyes:

The vulture funds should be taxed at some insane rate.

I feel like such a bloody idiot now not taking out a mortgage for 8 times my salary in 2006.

Plenty of people would be calling you an idiot for not doing it. There is always someone on hand to call you an idiot whatever the situation

Where's Ray's best pal Erika... I suppose they are kindred spirits really, both sucking off the teats of the State.

Ol' Donie

I'm going to try to be nice here, it's really not a personal thing.

I can't understand how and why Ray has this gig. Shouldn't a host of a show like this have some charisma or charm? I don't get it at all. Even if he did care about the conversation, and it often seems he doesn't, his contributions don't add to it.

He might well be a great guy, I don't know, but he just...well he's boring. If you were stuck beside him at a Christmas party, you spend the evening in and out to the smoking area.

Atlantic Dawn

My fingers not crossed.

There is a belief in Ireland that once you get the keys, you should never lose your house even if you never make a repayment.

You can't have a functioning commercial mortgage banking system with that kind of mentality.

This is the show that he's touring with. Honestly I think it's more of a parody than a tribute.

Apparently they toyed with the alternative title of "Aonghus McAnally Has Lost His F**king Mind"

That's a show I would pay to watch.

The vulture funds should f*ck off.

That bloke with the shades on is the one who owns the Top of the Town pub and owns a racehorse.

I think the most important message from the Celtic Tiger is that if you try your best to be honest and true, the State will completely desert you. But if you play a cynical, feckless, long term Machiavellian game, and don't try a leg, then the State will prop you up in every way.

Was he just in audience or did Ray speak to him?

Atlantic Dawn

Before I die I will watch Star Wars.

Chris Evans was doing this house challenge thing far better with ancient technology on Don't Forget Your Toothbrush in 1994.

That was a Saturday night show that never mentioned suicide or depression or any kind of illness. And he sold the format to 14
other counties.

But not Ireland, sadly.

He's in the house.

You know I have this Father Ted quote still in my quiver but I'm not sure I'm gonna get a chance to use it.


"Spider-Baby- It's got the body of a spider, and the mind of a baby."

Do it. Deadly.

Not the crap ones though. The old ones or the newest one. Not the middle ones, they're a big load of w*nk.

Oh sorry I see now. I had hopped to another channel

Atlantic Dawn

Are they living in an area with North Korean Telecom covering the place or do they just have a cheapo burner phone?

I take your point, but I shudder at the prospect of an RTE produced Don't Forget Your Toothbrush.

I mean, look at the f*ckin state of this b*llocks.

Breaking the bank

Skid X

Actually, this is blatantly ripping off Don't Forget Your Toothbrush.

I'm going to tell Chris Evans.

Welsh Megaman

Is that the guy from the PlusNet advert?

Atlantic Dawn

Why is a lad wearing shades in a house?

TheRiverman

That video quality is like a tenth generation VHS porn tape.

This is going on forever.

A raid of the RTE Canteen.

Aonghus did an interview with my old mate Bobby DeNiro, as part of his show about his Dad Ray on TG4. Which was nice.
