    I'd guess it's a St. Bridgets cross ...I learned how to make them out of rushes in fourth class!

    I hope he isn't relying too heavily on the intercession of a 1500 year old voodoo witch priestess, her middle eastern fairytales or her dodgy straight off of 'Art Attack' merchandise.

    But sure when you've feck all else going for you...

    St. Brigid is from Faughart near Dundalk, this is the reason I guess.

    Likewise, my greatest (only) creative achievement in National School.

    You only get what you pay for these days. You have to pay for extra protection eg. warding of evil spirits would cost €5 on top.
    I hope Stan went for the top of the line model.

    Perhaps the recent visit to the US has something to do with it

    Staunton looks like a boy making his confirmation everytime I see him. The lapel pin does him no favours. I'd say his mother still combs his hair as well

    He looks out of place in a suit. Like he's a professional or something.

    Another fella who adopted the suit when he took charge was Kerr. Looking at him in his suit, I just knew he was going to be a disaster.
    I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.

    In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.
