Wot - not even opportunities as a ‘Parking Technician’ ??
Have all the auld traditional trades of Dublin been lost ?
Zozimus’ll be gnashing his teeth in his pauper’s grave.

Sean: we’re called lockhards and I’ll thank you not to deskill me and my colleagues be renaming us Parking Technicians.

‘Deskilling’ - it’s worse still Eoin - I gave away my wreck of a Peugeot to a lovely Maghrebine lassie of around twenty as I could no longer afford the oil changes / replacing the bald tyres etc. (whereas her Da could).
Since then I’m going around on a yella pushbike thus rendering youse lockhards redundant.
My most abject apologies.

PS Which rolled-up tabloid do ye operate with ?

Wednesday Metro is usually best because there’s a plasticated advertising insert in them on the Wednesday. Our last chapter meeting called for statutory quality guidelines but of course, we’ll be ignored as per.
