That’s it Holly, you tell ‘em :-)
Good aul Pat Hockey getting off the hook I see. All he’ll have to do is pay a big bail which he can afford from all those tickets he sold. Can’t wait for him to be on the late late and getting a appearance fee paid by us as well. What will our enquiry find, “now pat you were a bit of a bold boy but your one of us and we’ll forgive ya, poor man is sick as well, God love him”. Bleeding joke.
Dead right! He does go a bit David Brent though!
Yes!!!
I’ll give him til March.
Mouthpiece…..loves a camera in his face
