Kirk M – And it’s probably my medications that stops me understanding?

Phisophi, filosp….philasop…? (ah, whatever). Nah, not really. It’s all those fancy words that keep popping out of my head recently. It has to be one of the new medications, got to be.

Roderic – The same old shite shall continue.

Kirk M – Jayzus but you’re getting fierce ~~filosofic~~ ~~phylosofic~~ deep on me. I’ll have to bring that down to the pub to get someone to translate.

Stipes – The old Agony Grandad is looking like a front runner all right. I don’t know quite what day of the week I would do it, but twelve pints any night would suit me fine.

Go for the Agony Grandad option on one condition.
You have to consume 12 pints of Arthurs real ale before replying. That will give you something to do at 3o’clock on Sunday mornings.

You're suffering from the exact thing I suffer from; looking at it from the blog owner's/writer's point of view. Always a very tainted view to say the least. The trouble is that neither you nor I, among many other amazingly talented bloggers, can stand outside ourselves and look at it from a reader's point of view and therein lies our problem. The real conundrum is that it's not actually a problem, we just fail to realize it. Hell, compared to myself, you're an outright socialite. To put it succinctly, even your "spinning your wheels and getting nowhere" type posts are a good read. I suggest you stop trying to live up to your own reputation and just keep on writing cause there ain't no end to it. Note: I'm sure the "stop trying to live up to your own reputation" part doesn't apply at all but it sounded so good when I thought of it I just had to write it down while I had the opportunity. I'll also add my vote for the 'Agony Grandad' column thing or something of the like. Should be easy enough on your part since your advice on most matters could be simply "Have you considered drinking?" Or maybe that could be the title of the column?

Keep the same old shite going…
It’s great.

It’s either a gift or a problem.

Maxi – I have to admire your ability to introduce porn absolutely anywhere.

TheChrisD – That would be a good idea, but I don’t have a Spectrum any more. Unless you want me to review Minesweeper?

Susan – I saw your last post I would have commented but I was too shy. I’m a real bollix when it comes to not posting on other peoples sites.

RWG – It is indeed an honour to be an honourary member of the family. I shall buy a case of Jamesons to celebrate.

Baino – Don’t be foolish. If I were driving aroud Canberra, I’d be upside down. Do you really think I wouldn’t notice that?

Popeye – I’m sure Elvis sang in many bars? In fact, I’m sure I saw him singing recently in a bar in the next village to us.

TomTom – That is a brilliant idea. The only problem is that you would become bored of my weekly critique of Guinness?

heshields3641 – I’m glad to hear that I have a higher cridibility rating than Morning Ireland. They only talk about gloomy things anyway.

SHoop – Who the hell would want to write for this site? They’d have to be mad.

Love your site and the giving out. Don’t give up the giving out. Methinks you need a roving [Rambling] reporter. A Head Rambles TEAM of pure Headers / mad feckers.

I don’t have any suggestions – but I listen to the RTE “Morning Ireland” podcast every day and then come here to get the real scoop. Please keep it up for those of us in the diaspora.
