some dude on the radio is talking about people being unable to leave their house because of the Queens visit/security, what is he on about?

If we come to work on Friday, we're not allowed leave our offices between 12:30 and 16:00!

What's the name of the book about a backpacker who was jailed in South America somewhere for drugs or something and gives tours of the jail now? Vague description but it's been mentioned here before and I want to read it.

Shantaram?

[Valor]

Thats absolutely ridiculous if true

[ComradeCollie]

Anyone else pissed off at the planned traffic restrictions for Lizzies visit? Really think the plan is overkill by any standards. Yesterday, (3 days before she arrives) they'd already blocked off Parnell Square North and East.

Have to admit I was really impressed with how the Gardai ran things today. From what I'd read prior to the event, I really was expecting total gridlock today. Turned out to be quite the opposite. Almost disappointed I wasn't stopped and searched

[rounders123]

Too right, you cant be too careful. People who havent come out of their house by 7.30 are unlikely to emerge from it all day anyway. Its just that when they arent allowed to they make a big racket about it like theyre suddenly Mr busy.

[RasTa]

Five different people all trying from different locations to get one more Glasto ticket in the resale tonight and in the last resale. No one could get past the holding page

Opr

Yeah we had 4 people trying and the same shit.

Finised the exams yesterday, went on the beer for the day. Last night I fall over, busting my knee up. Today it's absolutely killing me, can straighten it out and can barely walk. I'll go to hospital tomorrow I reckon to see what the story is, hopefully it's nothing too serious although I have my doubts. Going to the states on Thursday week, and if it's still bad then it will be a right pain.

Wouldn't have hurt one of them to give me a quick cavity search

A 30 min journey took nearly 2 hours today because of the queen. Felt like joining the guy with the ham earlier lol. The police are useless too, they couldn't tell you what roads are open/closed around Dublin today. Seen the riots too, bunch of idiots imo.

Yeah big time.

The guy who said about his drinking really meant it and was hard for him to say.

like things that make you actually think. This was one of them.

The "no regrets" people where noise though, would've been far better without them.

The reflection in the redhead girl's eyes who spoke about not travelling was a fairly unreal moment imo. She might not have been truthful to the camera, but you could see that she was thinking about it properly.

Sometimes nostalgia and sadness is good for you, keeps you on track, puts the good things into perception. Cool vid

aye but are you going to be honest if someone sticks a camera in your face and asks you that,


6.10-6.27 didn't give an answer but was the most truthful for me

I was driving a bus through the city when the first May Day riots happened about 10-11 years ago.

I asked one of the "protesters" what that was all about.... he said "Globalization man....ya know....globalization"

I said, what do you mean? he answers....eh....McDonalds man...ya know...we're against it.

Guy looked like he had a severe case of the munchies, I'm sure he wouldn't have said no to a BigMac.

Was out in the beer garden of a pub my mate manages last night, was a fairly quiet night in there. There was these two kids playing Aussie rules and the ball landed beside me to I decided to have a kick about with them.

After about 5 mins there Dad comes out and quips "Ok boys, get away from the Pommy Molester".

I dont know which bit offended me more.
