Northern Ireland - Water Shortage....

[Terry Tangles]

.......wiil thousands of our Irish bretheren be emigrating to the mainland in the style of those 'victims' of the potato famine ?

Never heard such a bunch of whingers....obviously excluding fans of Liverpool FC.

Yeah whinging bastards after having no water for 12 days

I think even I would miss it after 12 days

[Bob Fleming]

Well having been a victim of it in the south this xmas I can tell you it really ain't no fun.

Try having 12 pints of guinness then red wine, lager and a full xmas dinner and you can't take a shit.

POTATO!

12 days? We'd be onto our fourth public inquest by then man.

Why is 'victims' in quotation marks?


Northern Irishman is often synonymous with Liverpool FC fan, unfortunately.

Just because the dictionary definition is.....

a person who suffers from a destructive or injurious action or agency

......a lack of potatoes doesn't quite fit, but they are often referred to as victims.

[humbug]

apparently they've closed lanes 7 and 8 in belfast baths because of the shortage.

Aye. Whinging just cos they don't have running water. Spoilt bastards.

The fuckers are getting gallons of free bottled water anyway. You'd think people were dying of thirst the way some of the arseholes are going on.
