    Arthur Griffin sends a photo of Peter Griffin… and the circle is complete.

    one light rainshower and that television is going to be very sorry for itself :-)

      Post a pic of your mug here so we can all get a look at and judge you to a disparaging extent …. or grow the fupp up and stop being such a shallow little sot.

      Whichever suits. Y’know….

    Driving through Clonmel on the way home. I saw about 5 yes posters, 20 no posters and about 50 posters for the circus.

    Good job Mattie MgGrath…. so proud….

      It really wont :)

      Paddypower down to 1/33 for a yes vote and there’s no way in a month of sundays would TV3 do a location show in the george with Vincent if they thought it was going to be no.

        As someone else pointed out – those prices largely reflect what people are putting their money on. So its kind of circular. Does not necessarily reflect the closeness, or otherwise, of the vote.

          I’m a gay man and on Friday I’m betting against the 1/33 shot because I believe in getting the mother and father of all gambling problems where possible.

    I thought you weren’t allowed to campaign today or something to that effect. I know I saw no one campaigning around town which would be strange if you are allowed

    1. figleaf

      You are allowed to campaign, just as long as you’re 50m away from a polling station

        Grafton St is a YES sticker campaign party.

        Gonna a serious buzzkill if this is defeated!

    They’re all RIDES.

    Well done to them. At least they are doing something productive. Instead of sitting in their holes commenting on others appearances.

    Arthur, I am all for equality – I love the yes campaigners who came together but also the No campaigners who are entitled to express their views also.

    1. Jane

      Of course they’re entitled to express their views. And I’m entitled to refute those views or, should I be in the humour, call them disparaging and unkind names.

      The no campaign are pretty childish alright. Who are they kidding with that silly TV, could have had something decent on as well.

    1. Ultach

      Just to clarify, I’m only saying that’s the name of the apparent tv show, “Vote No”. I’m not saying “Vote No”. Just in case anyone thought I was. So that’s that settled then. *Awkward silence*

        *puts on best professor snape voice*
        do you have something you’d like to tell us, ultach?

    I received a message from my mum telling me about this. In relation to the screen, it also goes on about surrogacy and adoption etc. She also said that NO people are going around the town in a car with a loud speaker. She saw the YES side getting abuse from some people but she was delighted that the YES campaigners were very dignified and did not retaliate.

      1. Nikkeboentje

        Nope, I’m a girl. My mum messaged me because when I was at home in Ireland two weeks ago I canvassed for the YES side in Thurles.
