The Museum of Cultural Waste: Quicksilver…

Plain People of Ireland: (brightly) “Well”, as the divil once said, “That’s the Christmas over for another year thank God!”
Myself: Indeed. A bloated orgy of drink, turkey and ostentatious consumption…
Plain People of Ireland: (unsure) That…

Maybe if you sent over all that shite there would be a Viewers strike!

I obviously would have done a 4-part retrospective on Teresa and “Where in the World?” by now, but I was warned off the whole area by Bibi Baskin.

“It’d just be best to leave it alone” she said, before adding that she couldn’t say any more and had (in fact) already said too much.

For those about to whip out their credit cards and order the “Where in the World?” quiz book from Amazon I direct your attention to ABE books. A seller in Norn Iron is offering it for the bargain price of $30.60.

Description as follows:

“Book Condition: Very Good. Reprint Ex Library Usual Markings. 12mo – over 6Â¾” – 7Â¾” tall. a rare collectible book. ffep is missing.minimal wear.internally clean. 98pp including answers.”

Ok, 30 dollars might sound a tad steep for and ex-library copy that lacks its front free end paper, but it is, after all, “a rare collectible book”. It says so in black and white.

One can only imagine what signed copies are selling for.

I was going to join in the RTE-bashing but then that Glenroe clip made me all nostalgic. They should just air Reeling in the Years and reruns of Glenroe 24 hours a day. By the way, did you hear the one about the Irish reality TV show set on a boat? The boat sank.

Another example of Mulley trying to offload his old, shitty second-hand RTE books to the unwitting public. Yes, he got it from Santy for Christmas 1992 instead of a Jo Maxi popup book.

C’mon, Mulley, come clean and admit that you are really ‘anybook-uk’…
