    Shaking hands while wearing a mask?

    Nothing would surprise me with that authoritarian clown- with half of France on the streets.

      “half of France on the streets.”…. some of France

      Anyway as the old joke goes – How do you know a Frenchman has been to your house? The fridge is empty and the dog is pregnant… lock up the Aras and keep him away from Bród and Misneach…

      Cancel Pepe….

    Well if you look at the last three photos MDH’s hand is moving further from the depths of his jacket pocket.

    What happened after picture three however is a mystery.

    Did he shake Macron’s hand?

    Did he slap him?

    Did he produce a bottle of hand sanitiser?

    Or did he gently cup the side of his face and coo a comforting poetic balm for the soul?

    We’ll never EVER know …. !

    “The big cheese from France. young Macron
    Was told by Michael D, to cop-on
    You can’t shake me hand
    It’s disallowed in the plan
    But if you want to fist-bump, then I’m on.”

        Gwan n gwan and go on
        In this game of Chess you’re a Pawn.
        Despite any basis
        I’ll call you a ”racist”

        …. and that includes the President..

    I’m sure he’ll find a drive down the ruins of O Connell Street a real treat

      O Connell Street in Limerick, yeah?

      I’d be up for that.
      I’ll donate my own money towards it.

    the height of the average french man is 1.75 …I think that’s an optimistic lie, nation of loveable midgets

    Two men, who have, despite the acceptance of their sexuality by the vast majority, remained firmly in the closet. What’s that all about?
