Celeb Spotting šŸ

2 spots today (although the second mightnā€™t count)
#1
Who: Pat Roe
Where: Portlaoise church
When: At 11:15 Mass today
Famous for: Managing Wexford footballers and playing football and hurling for Laois. He also managed Offaly but donā€™t know if that brought him much fame.
Wearing: A brown jacket I think, I forgot to note it but I think thatā€™s what he was wearing.COuldnā€™t see apart from that.
Other: Pat seemed in good form as he played with his daughter, perhaps not always giving his full attention to the mass. He was clean shaven, which is something I donā€™t recall seeing in a long time.

#2
Who: Pauric Lodge
Where: Portlaoise church
When: at 11:15 mass today
Famous for: Sports reporter on Radio 1 and former correspondant on Echo Islandā€™s ā€œStringersā€ section.
Wearing: Navy Reebok Classic tennis shoes (the union jack looked untampered with from my vantage point), dark blue jeans, a navy and blue jacket.
Other: Heā€™s very tall. Iā€™ve been told that in PE class in secondary school he used interview people playing the match, rather than actually playing himself.

Iā€™m not sure if this one counts as I spotted him, noted that he looked familiar but didnā€™t realise who it was until it was pointed out to me.

Also famous for pretending he was attacked last year.

I remember him being on radio and TV complaining about it.

Gas stuff.

pat roe isnt a celeb
pauric lodge is very very debatable - ill let flanoor captain make a call on it

Neither of them are celebs. An awful lot of spots posted here these days donā€™t have celeb status. It gets tiresome trying to keep them in check sometimes.

Who: 118
Where: Dunneā€™s Stores Portmarnock
When: 5.45pm today
Famous for: part of the 118 and Nifty 50 combination that together do the 11850 ads
Wearing: woolen hat, red raincoat type jacket, navy tracksuit bottoms, white runners
Other: He was purchasing standard groceries - small bit of fruit, biscuits I think and some general cleaning products. He didnā€™t seem to have a bag with him because he purchased two plastic bags.

Now thats a class spot by Rocko.

Fairly distinctive looking

Thats 2 spots for Pat now - one more and heā€™ll be invited to the next TFK bash.

Mmmm those two spots were deemed not to be celeb spots there Mac.

yeah, no bigotball manager or ex manager are celebs

Strange you mention he was clean shaven as well giuseppe - i dont think Iā€™ve ever seen him clean shaven before. Anyone know what team this celeb is managing now?
