    He'd even ring it up on air to fill out some airtime. On a good Friday he'd cancel the ads and get the entire show out of it.

    Who in their right mind would pay for directory enquiries when Google is at hand? I mean, by the time you have found out a directory services number you would have found the number you actually wanted.

    This must be a humongously niche problem!

    The issue is never the issue; the issue is always the revolution.

    The Entryism process: 1) Demand access; 2) Demand accommodation; 3) Demand a seat at the table; 4) Demand to run the table; 5) Demand to run the institution; 6) Run the institution to produce more activists and policy until they run it into the ground.

    The weather here will see an end to outdoor dining shortly caller. Give it a month and it'll be too cold and wet to sit out.

    This lad has houses in Ballsbridge and the Costa del Sol and yet he's got nothing better to do than ring up Liveline to complain about struggling restaurants trying to bring in customers?

    Researchers, please, please, please don't ring the insufferable 'Panti, self-styled qween of Oireland' for his usual tuppence worth of drivel delivered in a horrible mid-atlantic drawl.

    Thanks.😉

    Joe never has opposing callers on at the same time anymore. It's a great source of gold.

    I say it every time Joe is off, but how refreshing is it to hear a discussion without regular grunts and interruptions?

    This is a very localised discussion. I’ve no idea about the roads or streets that they are on about!

    I don't know about you guys but without someone to tell us where all these Dublin streets are located in relation to other Dublin streets I have to say I'm totally lost. Those geography lessons really bring the story to life for someone who lives in galway.
