Founded: 14 March 2008. Purpose: Charitable foundation to educate
the masses
The debt squad is something of a general knowledge
institution in Dublin. Known for roaming the streets late at night
imparting interesting if ireelevant information on anybody who
cares to listen, and indeed on those that don't. The debt squad was
the brain child of an Irish-Italian pastor. Having spent a
considerable amount of time amongst the poor and the drug using
element of Dublin society he couldn't help but notice one constant,
the vacant look people had on their faces. The debt squad was
registered as a charitable foundation with the goal of "impressing
intelligence upon the indigenous irascibles of Dublin's inner
city". Although the pastor initially found it difficult to recruit
members to help further his goals, fortune was to be his friend. An
upcoming table quiz afforded the kick start his recruitment drive
required and at the time of writing the pastors group numbers four
people.
The groups members: The Pastor: Irish - Italian. Born
circa 1979, fled Italy in the early part of the century when the
first murmurs of match fixing involving Juventus began to surface.
Known to drink an espresso in celebration every time he answers a
question correctly. [No known photo] The Third Policeman: Cycling
enthusiast and flann o'brien walkalike. Born circa 1981. It is
thought that his knowledge comes to him while out cycling on his
bike. Especially intolerant to drug use amongst the masses.
The
Bride: Conservative canine owner. Known to sail to work from swords
and previously Portmarnock. Once had a claim for squatters rights
in Tomangoes thrown out by the courts. Famously convinced her work
to run a wedding rehearsal under the guise of a Christmas party. A
sympathetic ear to those less fortunate but believes they should
all be “locked up” nonetheless.
The liberty fashion. Mysterious
learned Corkonian, of Limerick heritage. Always has a gin and tonic
to hand. Famously remarked “well if they dressed a little better,
perhaps they might have more chance of finding work”. Will only tie
the knot if the ring weighs over 1kg and the credit card has no
shopping limit.
