It’s all a bit mad, Ted.

[CocoLomax]

Bomb threats on flights and in media offices/studios,
EU Presidency events causing chaos in Dublin next week with a Garda work to rule in the middle of it, coupled with strikes action on Thursday, potential protests, and taxi protests.

It all feels a bit weird.

Down with this sort of thing!

We dare not say who we think is responsible

Vlad or Benny?

Careful now!

Have either of you ever looked into the inspiration for those posters in the show?

Based in real life...kinda

We need more "Father Ted's"

We have the important visitors next week so we should be on our best behaviour.
But, oh no, public servants are going on strike !!!
There’ll be chaos. 😩🙄

It is a bit mad though . Marathon caused chaos too . And certain things I wanted to do in Dublin have been rearranged for this week as it will again be chaos . But we have been forewarned and so can work around it . The bomb scares on aircraft is worrying though . Would hate to go back to extra searches and liquid restrictions for security .

It really is all a bit off I have to say and easy for me to say it would not deter me from getting a flight but I have none booked. I am glad I am out of Dublin currently though.

It took me over three hours to get to Dublin yesterday morning by bus (journey time is usually 90 minutes or so). I was cursing the EU leaders. Turns out the delay was due to a truck on fire on the M4. I don't live anywhere near the M4, but such is the nature of traffic in Dublin that a crash/incident in one part of the city causes the entire city to grind to a halt.

I set off at 7 this morning - will keep you posted.

The public sector strike has been called off, so that's one less inconvenience.

There's a lot of talk about a fuel protest on Friday. Luckily I'm working from home on Friday.

I was reading something about rolling raod closures rhis morning around the airport. I'd imagine it's going to be very difficult to access (or exit) the airport this morning. Thankfully I've no flights booked for this week.

Great the strike is called off.

I was not able to even blink yesterday I was so busy but what is the deal with rte reporting something about people heckling Joe Biden? Or were they threatening him?

Delighted about the strike - kids not so much.
