In Vietnam, black sunglasses are now banned for its police officers, along with smoking and chatting on the job. And traffic cops have been order to stop hiding behind trees to catch errant drivers. Vietnamese officials hope the changes will improve the police force’s notoriously bad reputation. If we could only get our guys to [...]

pikea

Comments Off Posted by on June 3, 2011

I had a short but strange encounter with a pikey at ikea. I had just stopped in the carpark and I had heard a strange noise that was like a plastic bag stuck under the car. I was looking under to see if I could figure out what it was when he came over and [...]

the day the celtic tiger died for good

Comments Off Posted by on May 19, 2011

As rare as actual Tigers on these shores is a Ferrari. I wonder what is more heartbreaking for the owner of this one – the depreciation or having to wait in the queue at NCT Deansgrange. Would the machines even be able to measure what comes out of this beast? Sadly there is not even [...]

After my strange last post it was ironic that I passed 3 people on Monday afternoon as they pissed in public. One guy even faced traffic while doing it. It is probably due to the lack of almost any petrol station beside the road that links Dublin and Cork. Last year I saw someone squat [...]

always something there to remind you

Comments Off Posted by on July 28, 2010

Every time I leave Ireland the trip through the airport on the way back serves to remind you of the annoying things about living here. There are interactions that you dont seem to get at other times.

australia

Comments Off Posted by on July 18, 2010

this is something I found again lately. I got it from two guys from sligo who were trying to sell a car in northern australia. It gets so hot there that you need to fill your car with water every. These guys drove thousands of miles with no oil or water. Great selling technique.
