I took this picture the other night while waiting on Paula to pick me up, I was planning on putting up a picture from the top of the bridge looking down on all the rush hour traffic heading out from Dublin, but this picture came out a lot better and is a lot more interesting to me.
In relation to yesterdays picture it looks like Bertie Ahern has got a third term in office although it wont be a Fianna Fail/Progressive democrat coalition like we have endured the past 5 years.
The PD’s have done atrocious this election with only 1 seat at the time I am writing this, with Mc Dowell, the PD’s leader losing his seat and resigning from politics promptly, Liz O Donnell the PD’s deputy leader and hottie also lost her seat, you catch my drift! although they probably will get a second, it will not be enough to get the majority for the Dail, so Fianna Fail may go down the FF/Labour route or as many are predicting FF/Greens and a few independants being the more likely option. For more information on the Irish Election if you are really bothered, check out irishelection.com‘s blog page it is a great font of knowledge, and well done to all the contributers on a very finely run broadcast.
I told everyone a good while back their posters were terrible, I think thats where it all went wrong.
Lastly I appreciate the texts, mails and comments about Soupy Norman, I am thrilled to see that everybody seemed to have loved it, mainly because Barry and Mark who came up with the idea and script, really believed it may only appeal to a specific market, but by all accounts looking at the comments I got from people, it seems to be a much bigger success. Also with so many people enjoying it I can honestly say the first episode for me is the weakest, mainly due to the fact that the main characters had to get established along with the story. Trust me it gets even funnier….. and weirder.
