We used to only have him/ her,now we have it.the world really has come off the rails.they will be sorry some day for interfering with nature.on another note,its great to see that in certain parts of America,people are now wishing each other happy Christmas,rather then this fukking stupid happy holidayin case they offend muslims.thank God for president Trump,who will hopefully restore sanity to the world

HAPPY CHRISTMAS did i ever tell you I STOLE THE BABY JESUS ..For years I have hidden my secret .The shame of it .My mother always hoped that nobody would find out she wouldn’t be able to show her face in public if anybody ever knew .I didn’t see it as a big deal but I promised never to tell as it would embarrass her .Well here goes and I hope you can forgive me .In 1969 I stole the baby Jesus from the Oblates Crib .There was panic when it was noticed that the baby Jesus was missing from the Crib .Father Horan and Father Morrisey knocked all the doors in the Oblate estate while Father Breslin knocked all the CIE houses looking for the baby Jesus .I think something like that had happened around the time of his birth men in uniforms knocking on doors looking for him.The Gards were sent for and two policeman and a special branchman came knocking on our door .They said “Are you the boy who took the child “A woman down Ring Street had said she thought she saw a little blond haired boy with a baby on the crossbar of his bike peddling around the green .So the Gards knocked on the doors of all the kids with blond hair .When they knocked at our house I was out on my new bike that I had gotten from Santy ,my mother told them I was out playing and that she would ask me when I got in and let them know .About half three I came in to go to the toilet .I put my new bike in the sitting room so it wouldn’t get robbed .I was having a tinkle when I heard my mother scream .I ran out of the toilet wetting my leg to see if she was alright .As I ran into the kitchen I got the hardest larrap of a wooden spoon any child ever survived .”What do you think you are up to? “My Ma screamed at me “What is the Baby Jesus doing on the crossbar of your bike the priests and the police are looking everywhere for him ?.What sort of child are you stealing the baby Jesus from the crib ?.My mother was a very rational logical cool headed woman not prone to over exaggeration or embellishment .So when she said I could go to jail for kidnapping the baby Jesus from the Oblates Crib I was really scared .I said “ I was sorry” Sorry isn’t good enough you little brat you stole the figure of the baby Jesus “I was still crying from the slap of the wooden spoon while I tried to explain to my mother that I had been praying to God every night for nearly two months for a new bike for Christmas .I told him I would be good and share it with my sisters .I even promised that if he gave me a new bike for Christmas that I would give the baby Jesus a go.So when I went around to the Crib I remembered my promise and took the baby Jesus from the crib and put him on the crossbar and brought him for a go on my bike .Me Ma had to sneak the baby Jesus back into the Crib without being noticed .So if you were one of the people who visited the Oblates Crib on the 5th of January 1969 and didn’t get to see the baby Jesus im sorry

Can't be arsed reading all that. Is it the one about the ovens he bought up north and sold around D12... where he says they didn't work because of the difference in supply voltage. If it is it's pure shite. The 10v difference would have no noticeable effect, it'd just take very slightly longer for the oven to come up to temperature and the differential 'on' cycles would be negligibly longer... no way in the world an aul one from D12 would notice. He shoulda picked TVs for that tale, UK sets only had UHF tuners so wouldn't have picked up cable VHF signals that were used by Irish cable companies in those days.

Blast from the past... I wonder if they're still available or relevant... I remember a couple rigged up in the workshop for testing when I worked for Dimpco back in the late 80s. The first TVs they imported when they acquired the Sharp agency came from the UK and were given full tuner transplants... when they started supplying ESB stores volumes increased significantly so they switched to sets manufactured for the German market which went through a simpler modification process involving switching out a couple of sound frequency? filters - two little blue capacitors - a job that was outsourced to Rehab.
Conversely, most (if not all) of the white goods were either rated 220-240v or 230v regardless of whether they were manufactured in/for the UK or Ireland. Back then Ireland had a 220v supply and the UK had a 240v supply although the voltage at the meter generally measured closer to 230 than 220 in Ireland and it was subsequently changed to 230v officially.

Funnily enough, you tell us every year. And every year you forget that you tell us this story and then later on you tell us it was only a figment of your imagination

Remember buying a telly in the 70's in Belfast and had to use a up converter for Dublin use 'cos the telly used UHF frequency.Told the kids that was because the power voltage was lower ...and there was a delay and you could only get older programmmes....Never a truer word?
-
Buying a telly in the 70's....ye posh fecker....i always remember the bloke from RTV rentals coming to collect the money for the telly...my memory might not be what it was but i think i was the first to buy a telly in our gaff...if memory serves it even had a remote control.

It was a second hand tele ya moanin fluck. .ya!
