A good clear line from Brussels.

A Bruxelles caller!

Why is she talking so s l o w l y ?

The great and the rich sit up in the first few rows so they can lick the altar.

Atlantic Dawn

I am guessing she's looking to shoehorn her kids in to a career in vetting.

God love this caller from Brussels. She and by extension her kids sound deprived.

Her son got his place in UL, where he'll focus on rugby, and a little bit of academics on the side.

Her daughter is in Trinity College.

🤷‍♂️

Methinks she's in a different timezone and it takes a long time to get the words across the line

How can you get 100 plus percent?

Atlantic Dawn

100+ percent…do the Russians correct the exam papers?

Dan Jaman

I get the impression she's so used to talking French or German at work, she's having to think hard in English.

Atlantic Dawn

I'd say you could count on your hands the amount of people this topic affects.

You do very well in the exams, then all grades inflated further, pushes it beyond the 100%

I have no sympathy for these people. These kids are living in Belgium. If they got top results in their bac they can access top courses in Belgium. They want to have their cake and eat it.

As children of European Commission staff all of these kids get a monthly allowance of over €500 per month for attending higher education.

I thought maybe throw in a few questions of your own and answer them right.

Seems fair.

One for Joe next week, a 'person of weight' turned down for foster parenting because her BMI was too high, whoy?

Documents seen by the Irish Independent show how one woman, who was turned down as a foster parent solely because of her BMI, was told over a virtual meeting by a Tusla staff member whom she’d never met that she "couldn't run after a toddler'

Things may have changed in Italy, but my understanding is university is more of a free for all. They allow a couple of hundred in to study a subject such as Veterinary, per university. While we have strict low limits. They then use the exams to weed out the weak students in the first year or so, before they get to the practicals where it would be hard manage large numbers of students.

Astartes

Rejecting someone for being too fat to run after a toddler is the most Tusla thing ever

In other news the flute is getting closer to his flute

https://www.gofundme.com/f/flute-needed

squonk

It’s going since the end of June. That’s 2 months. He’s literally down to the last €1000. If he had an ounce of decency he’d close the appeal, thank his generous donors and leave it at that. €1000 isn’t a huge gap to bridge really.

Instead his latest update is that if he gets the required amount this week he’ll close and order the flute which, apparently, he doesn’t have to walk through Dublin to get this time. Everybody can then watch him playing it. Aren’t we lucky!

Joe could have asked him could he not take out a credit union loan to buy the flute instead of a GoFubdMe but, obviously, artistes like Joe & Dave don’t sulky themselves with such things. Bad for the muse I’d say.
