Spotted yesterday in a golf club in Dublin. Nice car.. Pity about the driver’s conscience! Yes there was loads of other spaces…yes it was there for a long time and…no, there was no disabled sticker..

A filthy Cupertino pr0n-off between the shameless 1 GHz dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 Apple A5 (SoC) and the utterly wanton 1.3 GHz dual-core Apple-designed ARMv8 64-bit Apple A7 with M7 motion coprocessor.

Ding-dong.

Full geekbench statfest here.

There was a free space in front of the silver Merc which the (now clamped) BMW reversed into, bumping into the Merc in the process. Once done the parked car in front of her decided to leave their space, but not before the BMW driver honked her horn angrily to warn them not to hit their car. That was a bit hypocritical.Then the BMW decided to move forward to cover both spaces to ensure nobody else would park near her.

This was too much.

I passed a clamper around the corner and politely told them that they’d make my day if they clamped this BMW which was around the corner. An hour later I took the snap (above). Justice done? I’d like to think so.

 

Bean-spilling Samaritan or snivelling tout in need of a washroom shank?

VIP cows arriving from Co. Dairy Derry at the National Ploughing Championships in Ratheniska, Co. Laois under garda escort on Friday.

They’re attending the championships to demonstrate the Lely Astronaut A4 robotic milking machine.

They love the attention, in fairness.

Thanks Maura Fay
