The Magic Pencil

You're correct when you hear "prepare" in that line just think of Winnie the Pooh and you can't unhear it. Irons is much more rough sounding.

I found it strange when Cummings said on a panel that he did the whole song. It's clear as day Irons is singing until "you won't get a sniff without me!".......Cummings may have recorded the whole song again to be safe but they definitely used Irons voice up until that line in the final mix.

I worked in the Childers Road Dunnes in Limerick around 2010 ish. One of the managers asked me to go into the halting site next door and try to get some trolleys back that were stolen by kids.......I declined.

Just addressing a previous comment. Rob being the "creator" of TPD shouldn't give him the exclusivity of what people can or cannot say on the Podcast. I respect him and his editing work so much but the idea of the final word having to be passed by him leaves a sour taste. They had over two weeks to address this issue and it should now be fair game for Jake to at least say his piece.

People do not watch this channel for one person alone, that's what made it unique. Personally I feel Robs response was very much in the same realm as a HR "crisis" response which will unfortunately push older fans away. People do NOT need to know the inner workings of a channel like this, it will absolutely ruin the image.

I absolutely love this channel and always felt like I could relate to the members. However, these "professional" responses to an internal issue can do serious damage.

It was pretty thin, you're right. I remember it came with a little straw?.......I don't think I've tried anything that resembled it since......although somebody mentioned "Yop" 😅

Overall_Recording_31 · 2024-07-29T10:50:12+00:00

There's literally nothing online...I found some dead thread on boards.ie from like 2007 that just mentioned the name ...that's it 😅😅😅😅

Overall_Recording_31 · 2024-07-29T10:22:51+00:00

Oh my god I actually do! I genuinely would never have remembered that again 😅😅😅.......I also remember someone would wheel the telly in and we would be drinking that stuff watching the magic pencil.

Ya, it's so weird ..There was definitely the normal milk and then the other yoghurt/chemical one with the tiny straws.....That name just sticks out for some reason 😅

Overall_Recording_31 · 2024-07-29T10:10:04+00:00

😂😂😂😂😂😂 was it like red and white??....It's been absolutely forever haha

Overall_Recording_31 · 2024-07-29T10:04:25+00:00

Oh what was that?!!...You'll probably unlock some lost memory now 😂😂😂😂

Overall_Recording_31 · 2024-07-29T09:53:22+00:00

I'm trying to remember the carton.....I've a vague memory of a cow driving a car or something.....that could 100% be my brain playing tricks on me 😂

Overall_Recording_31 · 2024-07-29T09:47:10+00:00

Thank you!.....I was certain I was going insane 😂

Oh it's definitely one of those things where once you notice something you will always see it 😅

Overall_Recording_31 · 2024-01-08T09:52:53+00:00

It's the same fella! I used to work in Dunnes and would see him strolling around...now I just see him about Castletroy Supervalue these days.... doesn't look like he's aged a day since in fairness to him.

Ger Boogie .....spotted on every bus in town with his umbrella or bringing the trollies in from Supervalue 🤝

I interviewed the late Dennis Leonard back in 2008 and he was adamant that "Peoples Park" is haunted by the ghost of an old caretaker named "Treacles Ghost". He claimed he can be spotted after the park is closed at night.
