Guiness for the lads after work on the job so be careful!"

Awwww, fer cryin in the bucket McGuilllicuty,
ya took me thinkin off the job, now see whatcha

Good Lord in heaven, now we got Sean's van AND
O'Shannesy's mobil crane in the sea!!!

Now, wouldja see the likes of such a stupid move?
Paddy, go ring up me cousin
Michael Long and tell
him
ta bring over his BIG mobil so we can
pull these two out of here!!


"Way to go Michael!!! why, with your BIG rig here, you have both the vehicles together and bringing them up. Careful now, ya know Paddy said that van was really heavy with all the beer and the tools in it."

"Ok Michael now ya got the van out, bring O
Shannesy's
little crane up here on the dock and we'll go back to the pub
and Sean can buy the house a round or two "

"Now ya shuuur ya got a good hold on
O'shannesy's rig Michael?? We'd not be wantin to drop it back into
the bloody sea again.?"
"Paddy, take yer supervisin over to the
side there with the likes of those drunkin
bunch from the pub and let a man get on with his profession."![]()
"out of the way ya
duffs,....I'm gonna
swing O'Shannesy's TONKA TOY
of a crane over right
where yer standin!"
Creeeeeek!,
ooooo crap!
Michael, Michael, We were tellin ya that maybe we should have all stood on
the outrigger on the opposite side before ya
did the pullin and swingin of O'Shannesy's
rig. look at whatcha done!!!
Now, if ya'll jest buy us all a pint at the pub, we'll tell ya how to
verrrry careeefully, move that main boom so that it will set yer truck bak on
its wheels. Course ya'll have to have the engine runnin to operate the
hydraulics but we can figure that all out at the pub. Tell O'shannesy to open
the door, swim out and come join the group.
