A very pragmatic response. @Fran would be extremely proud.
The Celebrity Spotting Thread Part Twee (or help Flatty identify the celeb he just spotted) (Part 1)
Very weak adjudicating there. Enda Kennyesque. This Ben Ainslie fellow is a nothing to forumites of tfk yet you are allowing it As a spot to pick up a vote in a poll.
Youāre indulging in pure hearsay in suggesting that I only allowed that spot because @flattythehurdler was disgruntled with how I dealt with two of his recent spots so therefore would have thrown his toys out of the pram again had I disallowed this and would have lobbied hard against me in the vote of no confidence poll. You have no evidence that that is what happened here.
Crisis averted
Whilst I have whined at length about your disallowal of my second spot, I havenāt lobbied against you, I wouldnāt have the will. Anyhow Iām bored of all this now.
Oiche mhaith.
WTF fuck Flatty?
Well it is dreadfully boring got
The first spot of the new eraā¦
Who: Damien Duff - former Blackburn Rovers, Chelsea, Newcastle Utd, Fulham, Shamrock Rovers and Irish international winger
Where: Starbucks on Drury St, Dublin 2
When: Yesterday evening, approx. 6.30pm
Attire: Duffer was looking very casual in a light grey longsleeve t-shirt, jeans and casual trainers
Demeanor: Looking concentrated but approachable, Duffer was slouched at a low seat by the window, using his tablet with headphones. His gaze was fixed with a quiet but definite steeliness.
Perfect spot to kick off a great day. Magnificent effort. Thatās a spot.
Great spot, great adjudicating.
Itās no coincidence the great spots have started rolling in now that your adjudicatorship has been confirmed.
Who? Nick leeson.
Famous for? Bankrupting the Queens bank. Aka ārogue traderā
Where? The boonies, Galway city West.
I was perusing some fields when the bould Mr leeson left his front door. His demeanour was angry as ever, he seems thoroughly pissed off for a lad that has stolen a living. His face was a Fergusonian purple through rage or through drink.
Not best pleased when I stuck.out my hand āhowrya nickā
He somewhat begrudgingly acknowledged my greeting before grunting what was I at on the fields, opinioning Iād never get planning, and asking could he rent a field without pausing for breath.
I donāt think changi jail did much for his sweet disposition. I donāt think it would for mine either. He gave the impression of being constantly livid, probably as our boys got multi million pay offs, whilst he got three years in a 9x6 ft cell with two other lads 23 hours a day, that was 100degrees by 9am.
I suspect heās a suspicious sort, but pleasant enough, and doesnāt like shaking the sweaty paw of leering yokels.
@carryharry 's pal was there and can confirm the spot.
Addendum nick also managed to be on point when Galway utd went belly up.
FFS. Not a spot! I allowed a dubious one the other day from you from that Ainslie fella the rower but iām not allowing this one.
As an aside this Leeson chap is a dead ringer for @Macās mate BCB.
I give up.
He seems to have a vendetta against you. Iād have given it.
Thanks boss iāll try again, are the words you were looking for. Pick yourself up and dust yourself off young man and try again tomorrow. Iād say itās the circles you move in over there, it must be a pure barren wasteland for celebs up there. You will just chance any old codger.
I would have thought Nick Leason would have been a spot. He would be known worldwide to some extent and the Barings bank was a huge event and there was even a motion picture made of it
