I'm currently watching The Voice on TV. It is just about the voice with not a piano playing contestant in sight. Why can't The Piano return to their original premise? Piano players only and no singing to distract from the piano playing! Singers should enter The Voice instead!
Has anyone in Dublin the following paint left over. I only found out yest it's discontinued from six months ago. We may only be short a small amount. It's BENJAMIN MOORE Hale Navy high gloss. It has to be the high gloss version. Thanks a mil...
Age Friendly Ireland on news item today. I googled it out of interest and the first page utterly surprised me. The imbalance in the photo is stark. If I was any of the four women I would have resigned there and then...
Bernard Gloster HSE re people not taking up medical card when entitled to same. I know someone who is 70 shortly and due GP visit card then. However their long term Doctor doesn't accept medical card patients so they have no option but to continue paying or move Dr...
65 bus (one every two hrs) was 3rd in queue at stop last wk. I walked towards it and it started to pull out. I ran to front of other two and frantically waved. He saw me, stopped on road and let me on. I said I was walking down to get on and two hr issue but got no response...
Given the incredible drugs haul yest because another vessel got stuck on a sandbank one wonders how many other shipments would be intercepted if all eight vessels were fully operational rather than the two available at present. Surely the Govt should resolve this issue?
I wonder what went on in RTE in earlier years as well eg. in the boom in early 2000's when money was plentiful. Also, I see RTE announced Dee Forbes appt on April 1st 2016. There's an irony in that! She is certainly no role model for women in top jobs...
Most people who want publicity will go on any programme or show they can. If Tubridy was as popular as RTE thought he was then Toy Show The Musical would've been a success. Even after his 1 or 2 events with Renault they pulled out. He was a small fish in a tiny Irish pond...
If NK's fee is 15% then I wonder was each €75,000 his yearly fee as it's 15% of the €500,000 per yr Tubridy salary. Tubridy looked as if he'd taken a cut if Kelly got paid directly. It's just a thought. No wonder Kelly pushes max pymts for his team. It means more for him...
Appropo of Apr 7th tweet, now that Patrick Kielty has got the Late Late I suggest Anton Savage to do the 9am radio show. He is what I term a proper presenter who doesn't make it about him. One who listens and lets people answer questions without constantly butting in...
Re RT/D Forbes/RTE debacle. Why are 3rd parties involved in negotiating "top" presenters salaries? If they negotiated their own they'd have 15% extra or could earn less but still be better off. Agents could be involved for work outside RTE. That'd keep it more transparent.
It's nothing short of unbelievable in this day and age that the Energia phone line only operates Monday to Friday between 9am and 5pm! What about people who work those hours? Even one late evening would be a start to better customer service as not everyone is tech literate!
I said it before. BGT and Simon Cowell should have all the 2023 finalists at the Royal Variety Show esp. this year as there is such a variety of talent already at the auditions. One could still be the overall winner but it would make for a fabulous evening of real entertainment.
