Christyl, my Sadie is the most beautiful of cats. I adore her. Glad to find another besotted cat-owner.

Having Irish heritage myself, I am all too aware of their tendency to poke fun at the successful, whilst secretly admiring their achievements..I feel from the transcript that this is the case here..I also feel that this sis where the Aussie irreverance for status stems from as well! LOL!..  ps: you and I are making our Xmas shopping easier christyl,..just give all of our unconverted friends a copy of Damien's album and watch them become instant fans! ;D |

bwahahahaha That was hysterical!!! Of course it wasnt having a go at Damien - totally the opposite!  It's just a send up of how Irish people supposedly behave. It's just the Irish sense of humour - I reckon we get too used to the American humour which takes itself too seriously and is mainly focussed on putting down other people. But Aussies are traditionally much more like the Irish - we dont take ourselves too seriously and our humour is aimed at ourselves. I thought it was hilarious  Thanks for the link dededom! |

Definately taking the piss out of themselves & the general low budget, lack lustre Irish TV scene (not first hand experience here, so apologies if I'm offending someone...)
