Emergency reactor shutdown
Grandad November 17th, 2007
Last night, in the interests of research for this blog, I watched the Late Late Show.
Actually, it was because Herself grabbed the remote control.
We went through that stupid owl thingy for the bank, and then the horrible theme music played.
Then The Plank walked on set.
He had that supercilious look-at-me-am-I-not-soooo-handsome look on his face.
The Plank
My brain went into emergency shutdown. The neutron rods slammed into the reactor core to prevent a nasty meltdown. It’s a built in safety feature. There was nothing I could do about it.
I don’t remember anything else.
…
Engineers are now working to restore my brain to full working power, and I should be on-line later today.
It’s nice to know that the safety features work.

That’s what you get for watching THAT show!
I agree with you about the supercilious look. And I can’t stand the way he rubs his hands with glee when announcing the line-up for the show – yuk, yuk, yuk!!!
I can’t even listen to him on the radio anymore.
And now he’s grinning back at me on my computer – aah, I think I’m going to be sick
Blame Herself.
That bloke is a health hazard all right. He is probably the most egotistical person I know of, and that is saying something.
Nothing to say, just counting my blessings…
…and moving “Living beyond reach of a TV signal” right to the very tippy-top of the list.
Ah, bliss! The kids are watching the DVD of Father Ted’s Rabbit Episode yet again (and ten minutes ago, who could’ve made me thankful for THAT?)
Thanks, Grandad!
Poor auld Flat Kenny!!
Susan – People should appreciate when they are well off. I dedicate this post to anyone who doesn’t have television or who can’t watch The Plank. You don’t know how lucky you are.
Niall – Poor? That f*cker earns three times more than Beloved Bertie. The only thing I’ll say in his favour is that he is reasonably literate and articulate. Unlike the other one.
But sure, isn’t Bertie overworked and under payed
ah, sure God love him.. I suppose he is. And he doesn’t even have somewhere to live.
Feck it. I passed out when I opened your page and now my kitchen’s on fire. Take that picture down for the good of the nation.
That picture is there as a test of peoples emergency safety features.
Congratulations. Yours seem to work perfectly.
Pity about the kitchen!
Yipee from me, I have no TV.
Aren’t you the wise one!!
Grandad,
I see you’re acquainted with Mr. Kenny
My little moment of glory, Niall. Unfortunately they cut out the best bits.
If ever there was a man weaned on a pickle,that’s him.
That man is an embarrassment to the country.
“That man is an embarrassment to the country.”
That man is a very expensive embarrassment to the country.
Every TV licence payer in this country contributes around €1 directly into his pocket.
LOL at the blog entry and have to agree with above…
‘That man is a very expensive embarrassment to the country.
