This should be good……Hopefully he’ll have had a good lunch but I’d be pessimistic.

What a spot!

They’re a couple in real life I believe.

Never heard of either of them

I actually feel bad for you adjudicating some of these “ Deary me “ spots

I had a fierce cows lick as a young fella, where we lived there was a couple of farms (all houses now, the entire suburb of Mahon) and my mother told me that while I was out in the pram a cow leaned over the wall and licked my head, I knew the exact spot I happened on, I believed that story for much longer than I should have :man_shrugging:

What?

I was cycling my Dublin Bicycle from The 51 back to Pretend IRA Territory at c.1.30pm today when I spotted media personality, journalist and perennial COTY challenger, Brendan O’Connor. He was seated at a table outside Lolly & Cooks cafe on Forbes Street in the shadows of The Marker Hotel & Bord Gáis Energy Theatre in the Grand Canal Dock area.

He was in the company of a blonde woman who was wearing all black (the colour, not the rubby team) attire. They appeared to be having a right good chat, O’Connor was meaningfully engaged in conversation (but not in an aggressive way) and his hands were moving as he spoke. He was wearing those runner/shoes younger EPL managers wear in the technical area, blue jeans and a black bomber jacket with a furry hood. He had his legs crossed, which was a casual offset to his more animated hand movements.

Although not actively travelling at excessive speed, I was unable to identify his companion due to my viewing angle from the side. I wondered to myself if it was somebody from the Sindo stable such as Niamh Horan but I can’t confirm this.

O’Connor was formerly a portly type but he lost lots of weight quite some years back now. He’s still looking trim and his garb and tight haircut also make him look younger than his actual age. He must be 50 odd at this stage but would surely pass for 43.

I assume his companion was his life partner, who I often see accompany him around GCD. Can’t rule out the possibility it was the Indo bint who bought an apartment by the canal and produced this stunning piece of journalism

It went from bad to worse for “Ali”

Still incarcerated in that financial prison :cry:

Still at least she’s informed people on the lookout for the bike that she’s got an underground parking space. Akin to forum favourite Amo announcing her bike was stolen by thieves who wolf whistled in her direction before they sped away.

I always find it startling to remember that he was somewhat of a popstar back around 2000 with his song “Who’s in the house? Jesus in the house”. Ireland was a simpler place back then.
