And before the word autistic and spectrum were being thrown around some kids were just a  bit different but everyone just got on with it.

They done it on an episode of The Young Offenders

I'll start it. (With the full expectation of the mongs to knock everything as they always do).

I had this lovely Portugese lady in the cab by night last weekend, the (shortened version) conversation as we drove along the quays went like this;

Her; "May I ask you something ?",
Me; "Yes of course, fire away",

"Are there many seals in this river ?, I have been here 4 years now and saw Three in the first 2 weeks but none since and I always look out for them ?"

"I myself also love to see them but they come and go and I havent seen one in a few years, there was a dolphin who got stranded at low tide right here beside us on Frenchs quay a few years ago, but unfortunately it died dispite the best efforts to save it"

"Wow ! A dolphin really ? Do ye get a lot of marine life in this river ?"

"Eh, we do actually, I'll tell ya a story but your not gonna believe me and you will google it after I'm finished"

"No, I will believe you, you seem a very trurthful man and I won't google it"

"OK, well about 20 years back 3 Orca killer whales swam up this South channel of the Lee !"

"What ? Killer whales... in this river ?, I don't believe you"

"Well, I did tell you that you wouldn't believe me so have a google"


So off she goes and has a googly-googly and then sez;
"OMG ! your right, did that really happen ?"

"Yes, it did indeed, it was on a Friday night in the summer and all the city pubs and restaurants emptied on to the South quays to watch the spectacle of the Orca's in the river outside".


At journey end I said to her: "Sorry fer boring the life outta you along the way",
And she replied; "No, that was the most interesting and fascinating Taxi ride of my life !".

Maybe the Orcas knew there was a steady supply of people throwing themselves into the river.
