People who were interested in politics were going to sign up without any help (or were much more likely to be one of the people giving out). Had to lol at the FG people trying to sign up people trying to talk about policies. Not very sexy

bye bye child benefit imo
News to me was the fact that child benefit rates increase with each child from the third child onwards.
I don't understand the logic behind this. I'd understand if they were the same, I could understand if they dropped a bit with each child.

Ohh the memories.
actually Anna Livia play good stuff at times.

I can't see anything about this now but there used to be details of a one off payment you got when you had a baby. (don't know if was for everyone or those on social welfare).
It was a small one off payment - about €9.60 or €13-?? or the like.
Always made me lol as it seemed pretty random and I have no idea what it was intended for.
Registering the birth maybe? A few pints?
Can't find head nor tail of it now.
Here it is.

Originally posted by cardshark202 View PostWasn't Nova around years back as a pirate station? A bit before my time but I think it was around in the 80s. I don't listen to radio anyway though, seems pointless.
Anybody know whose funding it?? They've really hammered some money into the marketting of it, you can't walk very far without seeing it advertised somewhere.Profit before people.

Speaking of Pirates and I actually dont like the movies but fan of Johnny Depp. Pretty cool from him.
Johnny Depp is one of the few people in Hollywood that you never ever hear anything bad about in any way. He’s talented, he’s humble, he works hard, and he does things like tip waiters $4,000.
So what did Mr. Wonderful do this time? Oh nothing. Just showed up unannounced in a little girls classroom, in full character as Capt. Jack Sparrow, after she wrote him a letter asking for help staging a ‘mutiny’ against the teachers. The Daily Mail says…
The school was told just ten minutes before that Depp would be arriving and two blacked-out cars swept through the school gates.
An onlooker said she heard the most ‘incredible screams of joy’ as the actor, in full make-up, then entered the school.
In an interview on London Tonight after the visit, Beatrice revealed what she had written in the letter to the star - or rather his salty seadog alter ego.
She said: ‘Captain Jack Sparrow, At Meridian Primary School, we are a bunch of budding young pirates and we were having a bit of trouble mutiny-ing against the teachers, and we’d love if you could come and help.
‘Beatrice Delap, aged nine, a budding pirate.’
She said that she was then asked by the star to make herself known from the assembled pupils once he arrived, and gave her a cuddle.
Beatrice marvelled: ‘He gave me a hug and he said, “Maybe we shouldn’t mutiny today ‘cos there are police outside monitoring me.”‘
When his daughter was sick in 2007, with a rather serious blood disease after stepping on a rusty nail, Depp would go to the hospital as Sparrow, in full character then too, and read books to groups of kids for hours at a time. And after she recovered, he went back to the hospital, completely unannounced, and gave them 2 million dollars."you raise, i kill you" El Tren :{)

I'll stick up a thread later.

I'm heading into the Silver Tassie in the Gaiety tonight - heard it's been getting really mixed reviews, so fingers crossed! Will defo have a good few pints afterwards so it will be a good night one way or the other...missing the sports as a result though, that's what happens when you book these things too far in advance.
The top 20 on Nova has justed kicked off with Derek & The Dominos..surprised they weren't further up the list. Wonder where Stairway to Heaven come in at? It has the weight of expectation behind it but I'd prefer to see the full version (live preferrably) of Freebird sneak in in front of it.
