Spotted in Vartry Resevoir in Roundwood [Co Wicklow]. English water company over to conduct specialist works. Why again do we have Irish Water?

Anyone?

    I don’t know what they are doing but is it not plausible that they are offering their expertise to Irish Water on best practise etcetera?

      Unlikely as the reservoir is operated and maintained by Dublin city Council, so it has nothing to do with Irish Water but Broadsheet don’t care if it’s click bait

      they’re over here laughing at our e-coli levels:

      *slaps thigh*
      ‘you’re supposed to burn that cow carcass paddy, not chuck it in the river..’

        Funny how not burning the carcasses in the UK during the foot and mouth crisis was the reason it hit them so bad.

    To call in specialists when they feel they don’t have the expertise themselves, so the job won’t be fupped up as it might have been in the past and end up costing five times as much? Like any normal business.

    Because these guys are probably bleedin specialists that we don’t have here.

    Jesus, this place I’m sorry to see has become as bad as the Journal.

    I yearn for the days of witty repartee and intellectual insight once so common around here.

      Mister mister unruly sister
      Twist her words and make her cry
      Maybe he feels I’d throw some mud but why
      It would only be what she thinks I’d try

  4. Clampers Outside!

    That’s the guys from L562 as per their reg plate. They’re from about two systems over from LV426… and everyone knows what happened to that lot.

    They waz nuked from orbit.

  5. Wayne.F

    Probably because Vartry reservoir is still managed and operated by Dublin City Council so this post has nothing to do with Irish Water. But I mean other than that tiny detail your anger and outrage is ok

    Irish Water is a billing company …. nothing more! It is, in my opinion, filled at the top with has beens, failed CEO, failed consultants, retired county councellors and over paid numpties or realtives of FG/Labour and Redacted. You dont really expect them to know anything now, do you?

    Can we have a ban on Irish Water related posts for the rest of the week? It seems you can send anything in and Broadsheet will post it no matter how stupid it is.

    Ban Irish water articles, this has nothing to do with Irish Water, We need to pay for water blah blah blah

      Trrri, it doesn’t have anything to do with Irish Water! The reservoir is operated by Dublin Council

      Good work, Terri. It’s always about IW, even when it isn’t about IW and when it’s about IW (always), it’s really about YFG,

      The leadership of YFG deserve great credit for developing such a pervasive & effective organisation. It is only a pity Enda didn’t give YFG the job of setting up a water utility.
