Irish Financial Expert Interviewed

Meet starkers' Irish uncle Seamus.

 

I oft wondered where starkers' feelings about bankers and such came from.

Well, after some genealogical research on clan starkers, I've found his uncle Seamus (which he did yet again in this interview).

He revealed the coat of arms:

 

 

Anyway, I'm really glad I could get you all to meet Uncle Seamus.

He isn't actually cursing during the video, although at times it seems that way.

It's actually Gaelic  :-" .

Actually, Seamus isn't me uncle... he's a long lost cousin on me muvver's muvver's side, and He doesn't like Google, either.

Oh, and if you're easily offended, anyone, don't click on the Peter Cook and Dudly Moore clip in the you tube window, where they are their alter-egos, Derek and Clive.  They are rude, disgusting and vulgar as they discuss various depraved topics with great and most entertaining verbal skills.

:-" O:)

Anyway, back to cousin Seamus!  Apparently, his hate of banks began when his father was jailed for trying to rob one.... and had no cash because it hadn't actually opened yet.  Yup, Seamus was bitterly disappointed about that, being it was his birthday and all his dad was trying to do was raise funds to buy him a birthday cake.

Another reason Seamus hates banks is because his mother was trying to earn a quid as a hooker after his father was jailed and also got arrested.  Yeah, she was seem by a police officer leaning up against the wall of a bank with her knickers down around her ankles busily eating fish and chips.  When the cop asked what she was doing she looked around and said: "Where'd he go, where'd he go?"  She was done for prostitution and sent down for 18 months, when all she was doing was trying to put food on the table and clothes on their backs.

I think the thing that tipped the scales towards pure hatred of banks was when he went in to cash in his piggy bank - you know, like the ones banks provide to young kids - and the teller took it from him and said: "THank you very much for your most generous contribution to support the fight of our IRA brothers."  After that he swore against all banks and now keeps all his money under the mattress.... the mattress in the kennel of his most savage and aggressive rottweiler.

:grin: :w00t: :-" ;P
