can you expand on this?
If I announced that the virgin mary was gonna appear from the skip I hired in my garden I would be sure I could get enough fools to want to see for themselves to make a pretty penny.
Anybody hear the Joe Duffy show to-day. The entire programme given to the guy who is claiming he sees the visions - I think his name is Joe Coleman. Didn't impress me with his negative comments about the Bishop and the person who is responsible for Knock shrine. Am I right in thinking he takes over the Basilica with his ''followers.'' The person responsible for the Basilica stated they left the Basilica in a terrible mess. Isn't it crazy a guy says the Blessed Virgin talks to him, thousands follow him and believe him and they take over Knock. I think he is going back there again in December. No doubt larger numbers of crackpots will turn up.

I can exclusively reveal that the Third Secret of Fatima is the recipe for the perfect pint of Beamish.

It's that the first two were made up...Anyone interested in hearing the Third Secret of Fatima.............?
To non-believers like yourself, the truth is often bitter...... (Think laterally...)
1. Huge tourism to the area and use of airports (airport tax)
2. Hotels filled, bars filled
3. Retail recovers by selling trinkets, t-shirts, dvds, books, and those fluffly thinks that people stick on computer monitors with the wibbly eyes.
4. Car industry picks up due to increased demand for rentals (plus we could lie and have a few "Knocks" evenly distributed through the country, its not as if the Yanks would figure it out)
5. A round of tv programmes and films where we can have a filming tax.
6. Filming requires investment, the banks could be the investors thus negating the bad debts and making NAMA a huge pile of money.
7. Designation of new planning category of "sacred site" and therefore increased demand for housing in these areas, construction picks up.
8. Need for better roads to get to the place, again construction benefits.
Are you actually Michael O'Leary?
You are getting dangerously close to a medical/pharmacological discussionYou just made me think of another tax, the non-resident toilet levy.
Say $1 per visit. Average 3 "visits" (ones and twos) per person, overall €1 million visitors to the region and that's €3 million for nothing. Get the local bars to add syrup of figs or something to all their food and drink and we could double that easily.
