Believe it or not, a woman rang Joe Duffy the other day. Her child was born last year on "Arthur's Day" and she decided to call him Arthur! But that's not it. She was complaining that she wasn't told that "Arthur's Day" wouldn't be on the same date every year and was hugely upset that it was a different date this year. So upset, in fact, that she's going to change the child's name.

I know you don't like facepalm, but...

I've these Jeans with a zip pocket and I was away yesterday on a train and had the wallet, train tickets etc in the pocket with the zip closed - as you do because it's secure! Anyway - I was sitting quietly on the train when the yer man came round looking to see the tickets - I went to get mine but the zip on my pocket wouldn't open! After ten minutes of wrestling with it I got it opened enough to get the wallet out and yer man had made three trips back to me at this stage! It was nearly as embarrassing as the time I tried on a pair of jeans in some shop with a belt similar to those you have on an airplane where you have to pull back a lever to get it to open and when I did the belt wouldn't open!!!
Which one of you bitches wants to dance?

There's nothing gay about them!

Chavettes in modified cars. Fellas can just about get away with it. Women just look ridiculous. There is a dopey bitch in Armagh who drives a pink Golf with the seats raked away back. Take a redenner love as the McCooey's might say.
