Is he upset?
Are we grateful enough?
You ask him
We may never know.

nice reply to the shinners action
Met him once and he’s exactly as you’d imagine.
a self-aggrandising bell-end?
Smells like a wet dog?
True story. Did some work with a large Irish NGO. About 8 or 9 years back, had to pick him up from the airport for a shindig he was talking at for us. When he saw the Opel Zafira (the org’s car) he went nuts. “Where was is phuckin’ Merc? Did we not know he was doing this for nuthin’? Did we not appreciate all he does for us? “(pox all truth be told)…. And so on he went from the airport right the way into the city….
Out an out poxbottle the lad is…. Not a genuine, empathetic bone in his body…. Total chancer…
Sinn fein? Me fein…. That’s “Sir Bob”
By the way, my Father in Law used to do business with Bob’s father….. a lovely, darlin’ man… a gentleman by all accounts….
WHo used to beat the crap out of Bob according to the book- this is typical lace curtain stuff from you
Well I never saw Bob have the crap beaten out of him by his daddy…. He did deliver a lovely eulogy when he died mind you. I did however see a reason to beat the crap out of someone – behaving like an absolute tosspot…
He is an unlikable fellow
You mean like guys who think Myers has a “right” to spew racist nonsense?
He’ll probably ask for it back in January.
Nice threads Bob, except for the shirt. Can’t say the same for Josepha.
What’s in their archive?
EDIT : Found it

Feh! No pictures! That’s no good to me at all. I want pictures of all my 80’s boyfriends.
*sings*
‘I don’t want your freeeedom
Here please take all my books’
Why the hell did the National Library show an interest in that crap?
Yeah – seems to be a load of worthless poo, sort of stuff you’d get a skip for if you were moving house.
Fair play, in fairness.
You’re a nasty shower.
Ah don’t be like that, Charlie
He’s right though – for the most part
I think it’s just like the real world, most people are nice and the ones that aren’t just try your best to ignore.
Certain subjects do seem to bring out all the worst in many people though : anything to do with travellers, Geldof or Zappone
Some clown was even on today lamenting about there are too many inner city homeless on Telly – like it was some kind of soap opera and he wanted new characters! I played along with him to see what other rubbish he’d come out with and I didn’t have to wait for long
This place does produce more than the average though. Vile people.
David Bowie is dead.
Stop. I’ll start crying again and I don’t need that at this hour.
Just remember he bragged about deflowering a 14 year old. (Look it up if you don’t believe me). #allyourherosarepedossorrapistsprobably
At least Bob is not a traveller hater.. Of course, the scale of ethnic cleansing in Mount Merrion can’t be compared with Myanmar, but the principle is the same.
lol wut?
The top image is ripe for a caption competition. Mine: “God, what a pain in me hole”
Jaysus – have you never heard of sunbeds, Bob? #casper
Live Aid raised more than £150 million for famine relief.
I’d say there are plenty of African kids alive today as a result of it who would forgive Sir Bob being a bit of a bollox.
But hey,keyboard warriors rule the world.
prolonged a war which killed more than the famine
Yea it’s all Bobs fault. Tool
You would know, wouldn’t you?
being totally shallow here but what is he doing with that bottom button done up…. remember the rule ‘ sometimes, always, never’ …oh the humanity!!!
