I am actually overjoyed at this news . I have fond memories of buying an overcoat in there when I was a lad. It was brilliant. The most Dublin place you could imagine.

Ah totally different one.

My brother was working at one that was organised by the same guys who do Castlepalooza. It was in Joe Lee's bar down there and I think there was only something like 15 tickets for it

There wasn't actually an audience, the internet will be the audience for this one. It was just beardy techy types.

So sorta like a real gig.

I was in -German Supermarket- earlier.

They're selling USB turntables. I didn't buy one. But the word "Plattenspieler" is inherently amusing. Wir muss der plattenspieler bekommen! Und so wir kann der musik spielen! Ich kann nicht meiner handi gessen mit dieser handschuhe!


I wish my German teachers in school had taught us how funny the language is.

when in germany i am amused by their equivalent of H for hydrant signs - they say 'feuerwehr'.
i know it means 'firefighting' but i like to think it means 'fire war!'

Tough day at work today. Then the missus rings. I thought that was odd, so I apologised to the boss saying I had to answer this.

My boss knows her, so he knew I needed to take the call, but he was having a bad day and his patience wore thin quickly. And the call was ultimately pointless. I got off the phone, gave the boss the sorry-shrug-shoulders look, I don't know why she needed to phone me.

He took a heavy breath and said "You're fucking fired. Call your missus back, tell her you've been sacked".

"Well, that'll give her some perspective".

"Yes. Phone her back and tell her you're fucking sacked. Then I'll re-hire you".

Eased the mood a bit.

Which is the acceptable one? I continue to be surprised at the reinvention of this guy as some sort of musical genius.

Will everyone will fawn over Gary Barlow when he pops his clogs?
