Originally I thought we might head to Youghal tomorrow but someone called to the door a few days ago selling raffle tickets to support renewal of the local area. It’s organised by “Waterloo Renewal Group” who have great plans for the local river area and walk. There will be a BBQ at the Waterloo Inn [...]
Anthony found Pixar’s new short cartoon, Lifted. It’s quite fun! I’m amazed that Drogheda Library wouldn’t let a student charge his laptop. “Doing a ryanair on it” alright! Kathy Foley’s festival of mud and horrors tries to understand the fuss over Oxegen. I stay well clear of RTE these days so I missed the hype, [...]
Unlucky 13? Oooer! What would you like to know about me? Apparently a company in Dublin is selling private information. Paul’s friend was dumped over Facebook when his ex-girlfriend changed her status to “single” and “up for it”. Paul, that was mean to laugh! I would love to see the referers to this post when [...]
Mark saw the new Transformers movie and was less than impressed. Say it aint so Mark! Alkos continues to impress with today’s image. Wow. The Irish invented the potato smoothie? It’s not pretty but it is wet and muddy, and God knows why anyone would tramp about in a muddy field, but don’t let me [...]
I still don’t know what to call these posts, but thanks to Niall, Michele and Robert for the suggestions. The handyman came to fix a broken door but got a lot more than he was expecting when he called to Flirty’s apartment. The Ireland tag on WordPress.com is a great source of Irish news. Some [...]
Well, 80 or so links. Maybe a little less. What a ferocious looking cat you have there Claire! Ryan tagged me for 8 things you don’t know about me, but I already did the 5 things and you really don’t want to know more about me do you? Ruairi discovered a silly AIB phishing site. [...]
Gomaith have their own definition of fettish. In a pub of course. Phil has some great photos from a few gigs held during the week. Eoin wants some attention given to Gaelscoil Cluain Meala. … at present they are located in a victorian building previously used by South Tipperary County Council Engineering deptartment and deemed [...]
Following the news that €105m worth of cocaine was recovered from the waters off West Cork over the last 2 days it appears that some people have been down to the beaches helping Gardai with their investigation.. Thanks Derek for the image, anyone know where it came from originally?
Kathy Foley is right on the ball with her article, You’re all just jealous of Cork from last weekend’s Sunday Times! I was going to post this tomorrow but as Damien beat me to the punch here it is for everyone else to enjoy too. Life as a Corkonian in Dublin often seemed like one [...]
Justin tagged me for the latest blog meme. Link to Irish charities to improve their pagerank. Looking through the list I see a lot of non-Irish charities and foundations, but I guess they all do good work. The list of charities so far is: MS Society Ireland Irish Red Cross Samaritans Cancer.ie – Irish Cancer [...]
