When I read this morning, that the government want to convert a carpark back into a lawn that it was previously. I thought that isn't a bad idea.
When I head they were then going to hire car parking places instead and spend two hundred and thirty thousand on the conversion, I thought they ought to seek medical help because they are obviously having delusions.
John Gormley, so called Green Leader, says it has to be done because the planning permission for the car park was for 10 years. Give me a thousand euro and I will put a nice lawn in for you, and have a few hundred euro to spare!
I wonder how much a pint of milk will cost if John Gormley is buying?

A good start
An Australian town has acted with some common sense. It's banning bottled water! Whata great idea.
The impact on the bottled water industry is huge, the amount of effort transporting the water, not to mention the bottles themselves!
Good work!

Judges and the pension levy?
Should the Irish Judiciary take a paycut or a pension levy like the rest of the public service? I think they should just to show the people they preside over that they are fair people who believe in justice.
What I really don't like is that it is politicians clamouring for the judges to take the cuts / levy. These are the same politicians who don't sit for nearly half the year. The same politicians who receive long term service payments, who get pensions while they are still sitting as TDs and senators, politicians who are on a leave of absence from their teaching jobs, these very same TDs.
It's just another attempt from the political classes to obfuscate and to distract from the mess they have partially gotten us into.

The Star Bar challenge
I saw an ad for the volvic challenge recently. A challenge to drink water for 14 days. Easy. Too Easy, so I am embarking on a star bar challenge, I intend to eat a star bar every day for 14 days.
It's like a rubbish supersize me or a better idea than drinking water for 14 days. You decide!
