Just seen the six one news on RTE and I’m fuming. Its crazy to think that the government would recall every single bit of pork in the country despite negligible risks to consumers health even if we pigged out on pork (sorry) and at the same time help put thousands of people out of work including a processing plant just down the road from me. What a bloody waste in a time of famine and what stupidity people bringing back rashers to get a refund.

Was a bit shocked to hear about this today untill I learned that the National Broadband Scheme seems to mainly exist to provide broadband to rural areas. Eircom might have been the favorite but they’ve already demonstrated they can’t serve rural communities. Only trouble with 3 is their customer service which nearly drove me mad the last time I was with them. Their support is completely outsourced to somewhere in India and unless they get their act together then I’m still not hopeful. Oh and at the minute I can’t get a 3 signal here either but maybe that will change..
Just spent most of last weekend joking about the recession with a visiting friend. Felt a bit guilty and it may sound a bit flippant with people beginning to endure real financial hardship but it seems you can’t turn on the tv or radio these days without hearing about the general doom and gloom.
