Although I missed HeadRambles‘ (aka Grandad) 5 minutes of fame on RTE the other evening it is available to view online.
If you are going to watch it you will need patience.
Not with the bloggers or the interviewer, but with the RTE stream. Bandwidth is no longer an issue (they’re on INEX), but whatever way they have the stream setup it makes for a really painful experience (which also forced Firefox to restart!)

From grannymar:
Michele,
Thanks for the explanation; I thought that it was either Grandad preventing me from watching or that I was doing something wrong. So it was RTE all along – apologies Grandad.
From Grandad:
That’s quite OK, Grannymar. I wouldn’t do a thing like that.
And RTE are famous for not being able to do anything right.
Maybe Michele can ‘borrow’ the file from RTE and do it right?
From michele:
Grandad
Too much like hard work – sorry
From Grandad:
That is the last time you ever get a mention on telly.
From michele:
When did I get a mention on TV??
From Grandad:
When I said that ‘a friend’ had told me not to blog because nobody would be safe.
I should have said ‘a lazy old b*st*rd’
From michele:
Ah. I didn’t know that it was my fault
From Grandad:
Yes. It is all your fault that Grandad was unleashed on the world.
I quote -
“If you started blogging some companies would start crying” [Author - Michele].
I took that as a challenge.
There was a follow-up reply -
“I just read back on this thread, and realised it has literally changed the world.
See posts 2 to 5 on page 2. That crack of Michele’s is what prompted the opening of a terrible Pandora’s Box, and the unleashing the ravings of a demented mind on the unfortunates of the Internet. Blame him”
