Striking civil servants, national uproar over a Frenchman, threats of tax hikes, displaced home owners. Against this backdrop Limerick suffered a major blow to it’s Christmas festivities last weekend. The shittiest christmas tree in the world exacted a harsh revenge on the spastics that decided to launch it on the eve of some of the worst expected flooding. Breaking free of it’s mooring it sailed off down river, where the first object it met stopped it dead in it’s tracks. Limerick’s Shannon bridge was closed as a result overnight while the situation was assessed and the now bent Christmas tree was removed. The same spastic who decided it’d be a good idea to moor the tree in the river when floods were expected was not seen swinging from the bridge, indeed most likely still has their job, in all probability was out on strike yesterday, and will probably get a service related pay rise in January.
