LETTER: Happy NAMA Christmas

November 3, 2009

 From: “The Inimitable  Gearoid O’Tuille ” (Gerry Floyd)….

Comrade a chara,

All this fuss about Joe Coalman and his vision at Knock, many people claim visions. I, myself am subject to visions. I am a fairly balanced Irish bloke, a chip on both shoulders.
On Saturday evening on my way home from Navan I glanced up at the Moon, a beautiful harvest Moon and to my astonishment I could see a bright red and blue circle surrounding it. I pulled over and as the clouds crossed between the Moon and me they took on the shape of a face a friendly face, then I heard a deep booming voice calling to me.

Gerry, Gerry go tell the people especially the children I shall visit on the night of 24th of December, I’ve made a list I’m  checking it twice, I know who’s naughty or nice.

To be honest I got a bit of a fright. I drove on but had to stop at the traffic lights on the Slane road. While I was waiting for the lights to change to green, usually about two days, I heard a tap tap on the van window as I looked a ghostly face stared in at me and with a long bony grasping hand beckoned me to lower the window, I did, about an inch, and the figure opened it’s mouth and said, Gerry go tell the people,especially the parents, that I shall visit them on the 25th of December and shall take away all their presents, this Christmas and future Christmases for I am the spirit of NAMA and Herod is my Master. I need them for my Masters Minions, though they have many presents and a future they want your present and future.

Is mise,

O’Tuille (Gerry Floyd)

Frank,

What is the Drogheda Council of Trade Unions (DCTU) doing on November 6th?

Nice to see the local TEEU president (Donnchadha Mac Raghnaill) out canvasing for a yes vote in the Lisbon referendum while his union officially called for a NO!

DEAR FRANK,

The story of Dad’s Army was the Home Guard, a mixture of too old, too young, unfit, will defend Blighty against the Nazis, stiff upper lip, we will fight them on the beachs, the ditches sort of stuff. (more…)
