[Oraisteach]

Well, did I get it with my Plymouth Rock and Floridian city reference?

Someone from Anglo Irish bank defaced the wiki page of a well known Irish sleb (obliquely mentioned on this thread numerous times) in 2008 with lewd remarks according to Wiki. I wonder what that was all about.

obliquely?

With the aid of Google & the clues up on here i found it
Thankfully im much too young to know of him, or remember him at all
Hardly a celebrity, did the news really refer to him as a celeb?

I'd say you're 40. Maybe a little older?

[God14]

33
Obviously 70s celebs would never be a forte, but if he was a true celebrity sure I would have knew him

Rumours about the same gent have been doing the rounds for some years and it seems that more than one woman let him wash her windows.

Is it a "statutory rape" charge or a "rape" charge?

What was it said about Daniel O'Connell?

A child in every parish!

It's that damnable rogue of a Daniel O'Connell,
He's now making children in Dublin by steam."
"Oh, children, aroo," replied the old woman.
"ainm an diabhal!, is he crazy at last?
Is there sign of a war or a sudden rebellion
Or what is the reason he wants them so fast?"

Probably someone who was working on the mainland. I doubt there was much swinging at RTE in 1975.

Where are you Seafoid?  Achill Island, Rathlin, The Blaskets?

He was clearly talking about the mainland, i.e. France.

I am surprised his name hasn't cropped up on twitter yet.

I think I get the clue, but I might be wrong.
