Any time I've seen pictures of her up to now she's been carrying a bit of timber.

According to The Mort on twitter she's from the Galway side of Shrule. I didn't even know Shrule had a Galway side.

She said on ROT that her bedroom was on the Mayo side! Bet she says that to all the boys!

The Thriller sounds like someone who got turned down. First the Rose of Tralee, then Fr. Horan.

Mortimer is special in that he's one of the few people who can make Rose of Tralee escorts not look like complete and utter simpletons.

Harsh. I don't see the escorts as simpletons. Young lads trying to get a job that will give them serious scoring potential seems fairly smart to me

That a tat on the inside of her right arm?

Simpletons all over Ireland still are smiling this morning after posting "but they ALL have lovely bottoms" on their Facebook and Twitter pages during the Rose of Tralee.

In a display of Irish comedy prowess not seen since "Upwardly Mobile", users of the social media networks made the comments in their hundreds, in many cases in combination with smiley face emoticons to emphasise the devastating and original humour of what they'd written.

Bernard Og O'Shaughnessy, of Gort, said "I remember that Father Ted episode where they were walking around the traffic cones, and then Father Ted said "but they ALL have lovely bottoms", so I thought it would be class to write that on my page and make everyone laugh. All my friends thought it was hilarious when I posted it."

Bazza "the Indestructible" Reynolds, of Longford, said "Ha ha, deadly. It's funny 'cos it's true. They DO all have lovely bottoms. Deadly. I still can't believe I made such a funny comment."

Derek "i'm a fuckin ledge" Doyle (@delboyunoitmakessense87) of Athy took to Twitter to write "But dey all hav luvly bottoms #hilarious #lolzers #haaaahaaa". After picking up four new Twitter followers, two retweets and three "favourites" in the wake of his comment, Doyle has vowed to finally fulfil his dream of becoming a Rose of Tralee escort next year, after twice being rejected in the past for being "not stupid enough".

Is 'simpleton' your word of the day today?
