Subject: RE: Campsite at Drumcree V From: GUEST,Philippa Date: 25 Jul 02 - 09:50 AM Isaac, your songwriting is getting indecent. I was looking up Rathlin island songs on the internet and found a reference to "... across the sea to Antrim's shore you come, We'll welcome you in royal style, to the sound of flute and drum And Ulster's hills shall echo still, from Rathlin ..." at www.scottishloyalists.com/songs.htm but the library computer denied me access under the'block pornography' rule! |

Do yeh know,I haven`t a bliddy ass in mih trousers,the fenian scum-begs had shite all over the pole and I slid down thon roof an only for the gutter I`da finished up in the lake. The bliddy boyo`s we were paying to keep an eye on the place were full of bucky and it had fairly knocked their shite out, sleepin` like a pair of oul sou`s.

Subject: RE: Campsite at Drumcree V From: GUEST,Isaac McKittery Date: 03 Jul 02 - 04:50 AM Woe and calamity! If the bloody shinners haven't went an' stuck the tricolour on the international headquarters of the Royal Black Preceptory! It's way now. But, I can tell ye, there was a quare lot of us swaytin' till we had it down! This wee ditty's all the go in the camp as we spake! Oh then father dear I often hear you speak of Brownlow pile The seat of fear and bigotry, of purse-lipped loyal bile They say it's where Nick might reside, if he came up from Hell But why have you abandoned it, the rayson till me tell It bein' a summer's mornin' an' a wee bit after dark To exercise my marchin' legs, I took to Lurgan Park But as I gazed, in shock amazed, I couldn't help but scream For flying over Brownlow pile was the orange, white and green I raised a loud alarum and the brethren did appear To look with grim expressions on this sight so very queer "The curse of God be visited on the foes of our dear Queen Who shinned the Brownlow drainpipe and flew orange, white and green" And so it was determined then till rip down thon oul' rag And so I inched along the mast towards the free state flag But I could not untie the knot, so tight it was and keen And still above the castle flew the orange, white and green And so we sent for scissors and we sent for garden shears For hatchets and for bow-saws and for other cutting gear The noble sons of Ulster then with faces fierce and mean Sawed down the bloody flagpole and the orange, white and green Oh father dear the time will come when on vengeance we will call And the loyal ducks of Magheralin will waddle up the Falls I'll be man to lead the van and I'll tell you what we'll do Over Gerry's office we will fly red, white and blue

Subject: RE: Campsite at Drumcree V From: GUEST,BBC News Date: 27 Jun 02 - 12:51 PM Outside Mudcat towers the protest has certainly gained momentum. Musicians have been flown in from the original campsite and the number of protesters have grown. Picketers carrying placards have now almost surrounded the building. The FBI have been on high alert since rumours have been circulating that known bodhraneers Gino Lupari and Malachy Kearns may try to join the protesters. There has still been no word from Mudcat officials although they have been seen peering from behind curtains high up in Mudcat Towers. The situation here is tense, more at 11. |

Subject: RE: Campsite at Drumcree V From: GUEST,BBC News Date: 27 Jun 02 - 12:32 PM Police had to be called to break up a disturbance outside Gray's Inns after closing time last night. Mary Robinson and Gareth Pierce were seen rolling around in the gutter pulling each other's hair in a good old-fashioned 'Catfight, after an argument broke out over which of them should represent the Drumcree V in the latter's bid for permathread status. Criminal charges are not likely to be pressed. |

Subject: RE: Campsite at Drumcree V From: GUEST,BBC News Date: 27 Jun 02 - 10:40 AM Its 12 o Clock and time for the news. Protesters gathered today outside Mudcat towers to demand perma-thread status for the campsite at Drumcree. Joe Offer Mudcat vice-honcho was jostled by protesters as he made his way from his limo to the front doors of the building. Mr Offer covered his head with a Mudcat tee-shirt as he was pelted with pasties and fish and chip bags. Spokesman for the protesters Mr. Brush Shields said "the protest would continye till the demands of the protesters was recanized, there's nowhere to run Offer nowhere to hide," added Mr.Shields. |

Subject: RE: Campsite at Drumcree V From: ozmacca Date: 08 Jun 02 - 06:07 AM (Fade in ABC newsreader) "The Prime Minister, Mr Howard, has announced that an illegal people-smuggling racket of gigantic proportions has today been foiled by units of the Australian armed forces in a death-defying bid to prevent an authorised vessel approaching these hallowed shores. This dastardly bid to invade our land has been thwarted by the bravery and brilliant action of our gallant servicemen and servicewomen. As innumerable adults lining the rails of the orange coloured vessel prepared to hurl thousands of children into the shark infested seas, the rotten, rust-riddled hulk managed to slip into a sea-mist and has since disappeared. The craft, believed to be the M.V. Isaac McKittery, registered in Liberia, crewed in Northern Ireland and banned in most ports, has not been sighted since the occurrence, early today. Forty-three videos, six hundred and fifty-eight still photographs, three oil paintings and a marble statue of the Isaac McKittery and its' heavily overcrowded human cargo were sent back from the naval vessels involved. These have been dismissed as fraudulent and impermissible evidence by Mr Ruddock, Minister for Eliminating Immigration. An authorised photograph has been released for publication, which shows a slightly out of focus and grainy view of Mr Howard on a fact-finding mission to George Dubbya. It is hoped that this successful action will reduce even further the illegal immigration of unwanted foreigners into this, our own, our sacred homeland.

(Tom Hanks swims nobley onwards, with a bowler hat for company.)

"She sought life in a new land, but found love from home." (Clip fades back to Tom Hanks swimming determinedly onwards. The violins reach a crescendo.) "This summer, Tom Hanks is Iassac McKittery and Meg Ryan is alison in a movie that teaches us that love will find a way."
