    Gardaí investigating an alleged sexual assault on a boy at a prestigious west Dublin boarding school are now trying to establish if any similar incidents had happened there in the past.


    For the guards to reveal publicly that aspect of the investigation is kind of damaging. It's their experience that is shaping that line of inquiry.

    The 4 day delay is weird alright.
    But why would they report it this time, if its happened multiple times and they knew all about it.
    The Irish times contacted this about it this time.



    King’s Hospital ignored legal advice to immediately tell authorites about allegations they delayed reporting it to the authorities for four days, despite being told by lawyers to do so immediately. They went to lawyers first before the guards.
    They then ignored legal advice on being told to report it straight away. And waited. However, this was not done until late on Tuesday afternoon of this week. By this stage, The Irish Times had contacted the school with questions about the matter.
    I don't know for sure if they DID ignore it. But I sure as hell think they would. It seems strange they only went to guards after a paper started to ask them questions.

    "At no stage did the management and staff fail to act on legal advice. Neither did the school seek advice from the state agencies by using hypothetical scenarios,"
    It's rather bizarre statement to come out with. But it paints a picture. They needed legal advice for a reason.

    Motivated blindness. It's one boy against another one set of parents against another. It's a very elite school for elite families. Same as low level bullying I would imagine how elite and vicious an advocate for a 'child bully', a parent could be, might weigh in on things.

    It's not just against the school. It's against the boys did this and the boys families. Fees are dependent on keeping things out of the statutory authorities way.

    The parents of the 8 pupils accused are signing the checks. It's a co ed boarding school by the way. Their jobs rely on reputation.


    The Irish Times has also learned the school authorities confiscated mobile phones belonging to the alleged attackers last Tuesday because it suspected the incident had been filmed and photographed.
    I their suspicions are based on prior events and experience perhaps not this extreme, who knows.

    It is believed the school asked whether the family might agree to a combined statement from the school and themselves.

    The family declined.Contact details for members of the school’s parents’ association were removed from the King’s Hospital website on Thursday.

    However, Hazel Boles, a member of the parents’ association and the boarding parents’ representative on the school’s board of management, said she felt constrained from commenting.


    It's all VERY odd. My intuition is telling me something.

      Well on a happier note. Have a good day all. :-) It's still mild.

        This is how this sort of shit happens. The internet has made us stupid (BBV obviously an exception ).

              The rest, disregard?

              I'd be inclined to watch season 2 first. It's nowhere near as bad as some people make out. It's just nowhere near as good as season 1 is. It suffered heavily from just being a straightforward cop show which followed a stunning southern gothic cop thriller

                  As a surprise for our parents, my brother and I paid for them to visit Malta next summer to be at the little ones communion. I had emailed the priest a while back for dates and he gave the 2nd of May. I booked the flights here and my brother the flights back. He actually only booked his the other day. Now I booked with Ryanair and think he used Jet2 as the times were crapped for them to arrive in Edinburgh and he got them into Glasgow.

                  I noticed a friend posting up about her daughters communion on the 6th of May and I checked the calendar. Sure enough the 2nd is the Tuesday. So I emailed the priest and he came back with a date this morning of the 27th of flipping May!

                  I am sure I will get royally screwed over booking these flights and raging that I had emailed already about the date and was given the wrong one.

                  She is not with anyone in her school class as they don't do religion in the schools here and you go to the church school twice a month for an hour instead. So I had no one to ask as we were to late to get her included with the children in her own class.

                    Skip chat. Phone the call centre. Explain the mistake and hope they will make a goodwill gesture. They did for me luckily.
                    May you live in interesting times!

                        Ryanair details are on their website alright. https://www.ryanair.com/ie/en/useful...u-calling-from

                        I don't know about Jet2 or what their policies are.

                        Depending on the costs it might be cheaper just to book a new set of flights!

                            Just chatted to them and they are looking at almost 200 euro to change the flights. When you use the booking form it comes up with only one flight and she got me to go into incognito and NO flights came up.

                            My brothers friend works for Jet2 so hopefully things will be ok there

                              If you do it from the mybookings page its 40/50 per person per flight plus the difference in ticket cost! So yeah.. it adds up very fast.

                                Called the priest as I didn't want to do this without another confirmation on the dates. He said it was always the 27th and who told me the 2nd. I read out his email! he was very sorry about this and said if we can't get the flights changed at little cost he will do a special service for her. So will wait till my brother finds out from Jet2 and then I will call them to see what I can get sorted.

                                Least we have another option now! might suit our little one as she is very shy anyway and was worried about it.

                                      Its a half dozen food vans sitting beside the bernard shaw. Friend of a friend had box burger stand in it so went in for a nosey. Happy out with everything we sampled, raclette was as filthy as i had hoped. What was in the veginity "fish" tara? It almost made the cut until i saw that big wheel of cheese being scraped onto a plate.

                                                    Huge loss for Connacht and irish rugby as well I feel.
                                                    Bristol are bankrolled by a billionaire and have allegedly offered a huge salary of 750k a year.
                                                    His first loyalty has to be to his his family and 5 children.
                                                    The rake is high with kids.
                                                    A certain inevitability surrounded this its always been the Connacht way but I think its possible he has brought them as far as he can.
                                                    Andy Robinson got paid off in full even when sacked as Bristol coach.
                                                    They are going to get relegated this year and he will have a huge tank to get players he wants im sure.
                                                    His style of rugby could light up the English premiership providing he gets a promotion.
                                                    He has brought Connacht to huge heights and whoever they get in to replace him will have a huge job to continue on the path that he has brought them on.

                                                      The Aussie chef Mark is class, dunno how they manage from a food truck. Not sure why he went from head-chef at a restaurant to a food truck, probably gonna open his own place.They won some award last week at Food Awards Ireland.

                                                        Got a research grant for a pathetically short 22 weeks off a certain renewable energy funding agency which had be shortened to 13 weeks due to their own incompetence.
                                                        Got offered a teaching position after 5 weeks and asked if I could hire someone instead and was duly ignored. I then told them I wasn't doing any more work on it.
                                                        Now the adminbot who used the 'I was out of office' excuse twice to cover the fact that she didn't reply to emails for 3 weeks is saying my technical report is too short. WTF does she expect from a 5 weeks project.

A normal daily life of splurging power here there and everywhere becomes an arduous task of assessing whether what you want to do is worth the ampere* it will cost.


                                                                *the smallest unit of power according to google, I'm not pretending to have the word ampere in my general vocabulary.

Raclette just seems like a weakass cheese, although maybe when its good its really really good. Went googling and it looks like a class idea, especially with the few booze stands so you could turn it into an evening of snacks and drinks.
                                                                      Nah, raclette is awesome. Definitely need good cheese but good potatoes and charcuterie are essential! And the obligatory bottles of white wine

                                                                      We still have our raclette machine, which was a wedding gift 16 years ago and use it at least 4 times a year during winter. It's a great dish tbf

May have required a week off work and back on meds but long term I'm sure it's a good thing lol...

Next up is a coffee machine!...What are the suggestions for this?...IPB is full of coffee wankers so confident of good assistance lol...Only thing it requires is that it has "pods" or whatever they are, and preferably a good fancy one (about €100 is good :-) )...Thanks in advance, and I reckon 2017 will be the year I give advice to others ha...
