Why does his face look like it was hit with an airbag?
Jeremiah Locke’s hair on Mickey Rourke’s face.
I just embarrassed myself by guffawing on the bus.
Oh Bert.
Ah no need for that. He had the perfect face for radio.
What was he saying about the homeless? let me guess, it’s their own fault…he came from a mother and baby home & look at him. They need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps sorta thing.
I have to turn him off when he’s on. I’ll listen to that fool George Hook before him..
trying to look young just makes you look older
might be an over enthusiast makeup person for the show tho
I believe he has alopecia and that’s a wig.
Emotional story.
I had the unfortunate experience of spinning a short girl around a ring by the feet after winning a fat suit sumo match
she kept saying stop my hair will come off, I thought she was joking
that was a bad evening
we’re mates now tho
you have tales
I’m too feart of the moderator
they might all get an extra happy moral ending….
my spirit animal is a small terrier
I know exactly what he feels like
To have no family structures around you makes one grow up with little self esteem and all what goes with it
My story is a little different but saying that it really held me back for all my life
My fathers family I never knew ,they turned their backs on us ,disowned us ,and we had no safety nets either .
No grand dad no uncles aunts just us kids raised by a mother who sacrificed all her life to protect us in England
The sad thing is people call that bitterness which demeans you more.
I often wonder if I ever met my grandfather and even got a hug how my life could of been better instead of never having children or feeling like I was some sort of bad fruit.
“grow up with little self esteem and all what goes with it”
now we have the context into which to place every one of your charger salmon posts
He’s a deeply self-centred individual and he tried to make last night’s programme all about him, to the detriment of what could have been a good series of discussions.
I understand Cutting Edge’s reasons for bringing on someone who’s “not afraid to speak his mind”, but he wouldn’t let anyone else speak or complete their points. One of my favourite things about Cutting Edge is how the guests are usually so respectful of each other, even when they don’t share the same viewpoints, but that element was completely lost on last night’s show and I hope they never ask Boylan back on again.
Its not self centred
Your post is quite offensive
Those families with children with no homes ,walk in their shoes
What they grow up in will effect them for life.
Do you actually know what one feels like knowing as a child you could of been sold or adopted and the only one that protected you or gave a dam was your mother.
The catholic church did sell those children in mother and baby homes and I find it strange considering the films programmes news articles etc that you seem to think these children would of had no reaction as they developed to adults.
Growing up without any family structures feeling alone abandoned but thankful that you are not given away would affect anyone
You really must be a cold fish
So what if his post is offensive? Go for it. Im very happy with people speaking their mind, offensive or otherwise. Snowflake!
Niall Boiling is a good BS bot name.
Ara he’s just a blowhole
I would no more take in an’ting he says than I would let Brendan O’Connor into me bed
Not even Skinny Brendan?
