Only messing , kids. But, you know, we could use a hand. If you’re done with the whole ‘following’ thing you might want to seek work experience right here at BS (see what we’ve done there?). It did Bill Cullen no harm and it will show that you are ready for the workplace. Send CVs to broadsheet@broadsheet.ie. We’re particularly on the lookout for animators.

So, do you remember The Numskulls? No?
It was in The Dandy? No?
An English comic? No?
Never mind, Nat King Coleslaw remembers everything.
Jim FitzPatrick Great to see a family in Arklow standing up to the banks trying to repossess the family home by using a huge digger to block the repo men. Everyone should do the same to these evictions. We are back to being a colony, this time of the banks. Resist and fight. Brick them. We have the numbers, not the ruling elite. (July 26)
Gav Lambe Just had a VERY successful lunch and must say that I like the ‘no phone’ policy at Guilbaud. Means you can get on with lunch without the pesky phone interrupting every 5 minutes :-) (July 20)

“I started arguing with people on Twitter calling themselves LauralovesJedward or GemmaGrimes. One girl from Dublin accused me of hating the Irish and said she deleted my album.
“Then people started copying in Jedward fan groups – like the Jedheads – and started spreading the word not to follow me.
“I was in a Tweet debate for four hours. One person told me not to have a go at them because they would write their own songs one day when they’re ready.
“I said I’d cover one of their self-penned songs and do a rendition of Ghostbusters, but the irony was lost on their fans when they told me I’d ruin it.”
Example – who currently has 24,000 followers compared to JOHN and EDWARD‘s 57,000 – finally admitted defeat by writing: “Jedwards fans – the reason I’m not as big as Jedward is cos I didn’t sleep with Louie (sic) Walsh. Maybe next year with a bit of luck.”

Look, we’re dreadfully sorry about that hideous picture we posted earlier. You know the one. Don’t go looking for it. Too late.
We sincerely hope the above image goes some way toward redressing the balance.
Either way, puke bags are located in the forward seat pocket.
