Very good. Thanks for the funny vid.

The "only 3 years" part made me smile.

Er, exactly how long did it take to build the port tunnel? Oh wait. It's still being built...

Gentlemen (and ladies), it's a brave new world out there!

Ah yes, but this is being done by a private consortium. No over-runs happen outside the state sector, as we all know.

Is that from the same people who have just invented the "free" energy machine?

Who is that guy in the video again?

Right. We had the 'Time in the Slime', 'The Fluzzy in the Jaccuzi' and 'Nail in the Pale'.

What will this be?

Sham-Rock City?

Or A-Tallaght-antis?

Hint: anyone who sends their e-mail to them is a moron.

Just in case the average IQ level of our messageboard starts plunging...... to that of whence it came.

Had me going for a couple of minutes, though.
