rot: RTE (Gardners World)

Another One to RTE !

-RTE (To: Complaints Dept, Subject: Gardners World)

Hi,
Any chance youd have an email address for the gardener Gerry Daly (yes him with the beard). Remember he used to have a program called Gardners World (oh how I miss it ).
If not would you have a contact number for that gardener that used to be on Live at 3 (yes him with the lisp)......actually make that an email address.

Failing this would you know what I should do with my Tulips as I feel their colours are clashing with my slippers which is in turn upsetting the Cat.

Insanely Yours
G*** P. C****

Hi,

As a keen gardener myself G****, my advice would be to GET RID OF THE CAT, and stay out of the garden in your slippers - the ground is far too wet. If you really want to contact Gerry Daly, and he'll say the same as I have, he can be contacted at the Irish Garden Magazine, 01 2862*** or garden.ie

The gardener with the lisp is Dermot O'Neill and his website is: dermotoneill.com

Best of luck with the tulips,
Nina Ward
RTÉ Information Officer

rot: RTE (Six One News)

One of our earliest targets was RTE (Irelands national broadcaster), more specifically their complaints department!!

-RTE (To: Complaints Dept, Subject: Six-One News)

Dear RTE,
Would it be possible to move the ‘Six One' news to a later slot, ‘Six Forty Three' perhaps, as I rarely make it home from work before half six.

Yours in anticipation

Dear M***. O'C****
Thank you for your e-mail. I regret to inform you that
RTÉ has no plans to change the timing of either the Six
One or the Nine O'Clock news bulletins.

Best regards

Reign of Terror

What is the 'Reign of Terror' ?

Well the 'Reign of Terror' is the product of fierce bordom, an over active imagination and too much and spare time.

The reign of terror is basically a campaign of mostly bogus emails sent to various targets in the hope they either

A. take the bait and reply
B. pick up on the prank and send an equally ridiculous reply
C. who knows

One of the first ‘targets’ was RTE and the RTE complaints department. I have to say that the correspondence got of them initially was ‘gold’ but tapered off eventually as they copped on to the hoax.
Other targets range from the GAA to the IFA to Dairygold to Health Board, to name but a few.

So keep an eye out i will be posting the emails/letters over time and watch out ...you could be next!!

This site will be updated at the very least, every Sunday Night/Monday morning….so check in regularly to keep up to date with The Reign Of Terror!
