Trapped

[Orior]

Lads.

We need a similar scenario to boost the economy and the nation's mood.

33 Bord na Mona workers get stranded in a boghole in The Bog of Allen.

Brian Cowen addresses the nation to pull together for the sake of the 33. Sky News sets up camp in Clara, boosting the local economy by 3 million euro. The EU row in with grant aid. Bob Geldof does Bog Aid. Bono promises to release an album to raise funds called 'Sod Off, Ye begrudgers'

Soon we'll have 100 billion - pay back European Central Bank, Roman Abramovich and all our ills are sorted in time for reunification in 2016.

Is Tara Mines closed?

[Shamrock Shore]

Biffo wouldn't allow Tara Mines to come into the picture as Noel Dempsey would be all over that one.

No - Cowen would want the action in Laois/Offaly.

[leenie]

were u watching the nightly news with Vincent Browne by any chance

No Leenie, I wasn't. I cannot stand that program. Has Vinnie Brown suggested a cunning plan similar to mine?

he said something along the lines of this is a great story for the world and the Chilean leader had gone up in peoples opinions because of the care he showed and then he said something like this would do wonders for cowen,.... the panel laughed heartily

and then they received several emails and msg's of disapproval!

Will that's the final Miner on his way up & to Quote the final scene of the Truman Show..............Security Guard 1: What else is on? Security Guard 2: Yeah, let's see what else is on. Security Guard 1: Where's the TV guide?

Or Davina McCaul jumps out yelling "Say bye-bye to the Big Brother Cave!"
