Dopped through my letterbox in Dublin 7…I have two words for you: only the greatest local freesheet front-page editorial ever. Prepare to need a bit of a lie down.

Bicycle Pilot?
a cyclist?
yea, I think from now on they shall be called, cyclists…
sounds more like a gaa bainisteoir than an editor.
Is that the plot to an episode of A Touch Of Cloth?
Reminds me of Father Ted for some reason..
‘I have one word for Noonan’…. I count 7.
“I have one word for Noonan. “Noonan, stop pinching loafs, buy you own!”.
That is one great, and totally batsh*t, sentence
It’s pretty amazing alright. It’s also a matter for concern that an editor doesn’t know how to pluralise correctly. Pedantor strikes!
The image on Noonan pinching a loaf will linger in the memory.
No-one escapes the squeeze.
The poorest most saddest and beaten down people in the whole world. And it’s all their fault. Them over there. Why aren’t we more like Sweden where nobody works but they are all loaded.
And laughing like this when he’s pinching it….

Does he wish us a happy St. Patrick’s day at the end?
This week’s paper?
Lá Féile Pádraig?
If this is genuine, I am very happy. However it smacks of something written by waterford whispers.
I was pinching a loaf myself whilst reading it. Coincidence? Probably.
Is he implying bank tellers are loaded? Like comparing rural dwelling craftsmen to bank tellers in Dublin 4 is a bit off. A conpany electrician makes far more than a bank teller, especially these days. Maybe he meant to reference bank managers.
I feel bad for tellers. Get all the sh1t from customers while having neither responsibility for nor benefit from terrible banking practices.
I took that to mean that they are both your average man, the “squeezed middle” if you will, although who knows what this semi-literate bozo is really getting at.
Well in 2006 when I was a bank teller I was on €19 – 20k a year.
Typo in the first line of a front page editorial. Fire him.
…and he’s The Editor :)
LOL, they’ve spelled burnt as brunt – povvy Dublin freesheet.
