[Giggles]

You would be exhausted from 30 days of gigs though.

You would be but I think the inference is that she attended 9 gigs in a 30 day period.

The article lists them as "events" though so this could be anything - a play, dressage competition, neo-Nazi rally.

Ah right. I didn't read the article, and assumed that the 9 "events" must have been multi-day festivals, one after the other with the odd gig in between, to span 30 days of continuous gigging. I was thinking fair play to her

What is it about Des Cahill that annoys me so much? I cant pin it, but he really fkn annoys me.

[Carnage]

The dye job is the no. 1 issue for me, it's quite pathetic. But he's very unlikeable, smug and condescending I find.

Yep it could well be all of that and more, still something that I cant pin down, its a bit like the Pat Kenny effect, perhaps its RTE/ex RTE presenters in general, I need to think about this, on that vein I used to enjoy listening to Matt Cooper, now I can't stand him, I have a reason why but I can't formulate it into words, its something in the vein that he keeps stating the obvious on something that's so fucking obvious that it doesn't need to be stated and makes a big fucking deal about it as if he's the first one to realise it and just wastes time not getting to the real point, which he never gets to, yes I think that's it

[Emphyrio]

I'm gone off Matt Cooper the last few years too. Now I only listen to Newstalk but they're smug fuckers too.

[Carnage]

I don't listen to the radio so have only heard of Cooper. RTE presenters in general are unbearable, all affected accents and condescension. The odd exception like Daithi O'Sé, who really overeggs it in the opposite direction, but is still not the worst.

Sean Moncrieff show is good on newstalk and Brendan O'Connor is very good Saturday mornings on Rte radio 1. Anton Savage can be very good good at asking the right questions.

[Emphyrio]

I find Brendan O'Connor to be a bit of a dose but he's also the only rte presenter I'd occasionally switch over from Newstalk to.

Weren't Moncrieff and O'Connor on that TV show, Don't Feed the Gondolas. That was gas.

Aye they sure were. O'Connor is a bit of a dose alright but I find he gets really good guests and they are interesting conversations.

[The Heretic]

Yeah Sean Moncrieff is good, he really does some off the wall topics that are interesting

[Ducky]

FM radio is aural pollution. Why listen to that muck when you could be playing some tunes?

[Mower Liberation Front]

F1 needs to swallow its pride, and ask NASCAR for advice on how to dry tracks.
Seriously, a multi billion dollar organisation, and they don't think jet dryers or air titans could come in handy?

 ...wastes time not getting to the real point, which he never gets to

Fixed that for ya after removing 150 words

Well played lad

Says I, who wouldn't dream of using 5 words when 100 could do in their place lol
