So, who wants to help ... to cower in the cellar?

All Manholes along roads the Beast might travel if Marine one breaks down are welded shut and will need unwelded once he goes

That is the sort of thing that gets my goat about the orange randy old goat “gracing us with his presence”

The number of people who say things like

"His coming will showcase west Clare " has totally baffled me

The area doen’t need showcasing and dear heavens is it too much to ask to walk on the PUBLIC feckin beach

And while we are at it what right has he to build a wall to stop the Atlantic from causing longshore drift and creating a unique dune system so that fat rich old fools can spoil a good walk

As you might guess I am a fan of the Green protesters who are handing a petition to him with 100 000 plus signatures imploring him to think again about the blasted wall

What is it with him and bricks and mortar?

Does he want to pave the universe?

And breathe dear just breathe…

The only way I see that working is “Strewth, those poor West-Clare-ites have such a lot to put up with, I will immediately plan a holiday there to give them my tourism money.” Because the sort of businesses that would be attracted by a visit like that are really not the sort the locals would want.

The highest amount of tourism comes from those who first came as backpackers and then want to bring their families back to show them where they misspent their yoof

They are nice tourists out to enjoy time with their childer

The yank tour buses are ghastly affairs but I sort of understand their pitiful holiday allowance only allows them a week or two a year

I saw one once at a 6 000 + year old dolman who just charged up to the information plate at the car park then gallumphed back to the bus

A very ancient bit of a monument and he couldn’t be arsed to walk 50 yards to see the thing!

Walls can be dynamited down, Twellies.

And there’s nothing left of the one in Berlin that isn’t being a museum, after all.

Me Bruvver sticks to a very ancient code of honour: don’t do it if there’s no money in it.

What’s the weather forecast for tomorrow, Twellsy?

No, they’re not, Carinthia. They are very wearable, though and thoughtfully chosen. I do need to grow more ears, however :wink:

I have never seen a branch here, Carinthia. Having said that, I rarely go into town these days. The jewellery looks fab.

Have heard Rumours of Goulash chez an certain Cellarite and feel suddenly very hungry and Deprived.
I love a good goulash. Which that is.
And I love a good chicken paprikas too: the Ma’s is wonderful and she always makes it for me when I’m there.

Had a perfectly edible chicken stoo tonigjt* and am fortunate and fully fed and all that, but…
*you know the word I meant. But that could be generic for ‘over-priced, snake-hipped hairdresser’, I reckon.

We enjoyed (thank the gawds) butternut squash and puy lentil salad, with halloumi. Good spicy dressing and toasted pine nuts, tomato, rocket,red onion etc.

Male, young, desperately effeminate if not genuinely gay as a goose, and pretentious with it. You know, the good old stereotype as exemplified by Fabrice in TA.
