Parful interview @Dearbhailmcdonald.bsky.social with @jancarsonwrites.bsky.social What an odyssey through her own backyard - and the neighbour’s. Hers is the generation to break the mould - in both senses.

I’m no expert but I would’ve got a person to do it.

PW Bridgman’s new book has just dropped on the mat. I shall pose with it in cafés & engineer trips to the jacks, nonchalantly leaving it splayed open on the beautiful dedication page. I’m expecting an array of quirky characters, awkward situations & supreme wit with the genuine blas of the Gael.

Strule Shared Education Campus. The one stunning item of information today was not the boycott, nor the cost but the fact that each school will have separate canteen facilities! Universities can feed thousands at once. Is breaking bread together not at the heart of peace making?@BBCTalkback

Awaiting a pint of stout to settle in Babs’ Forkhill I tried to make chat with the punter at the end of the counter. Noting the low protrusions of the overhanging bar I said,” You could hit your head on that if you weren’t careful.” Without even lowering his paper he growled,”Why fuckin’ don’t ye!”

Join the jury in judgement of the patriot John Mitchel in Armagh Market Pace on Friday. At stake, his reputation: is it still appropriate his statue stands in Newry given his support of slavery? Hear the evidence before voting in the secret ballot! marketplacearmagh.ticketsolve.com/ticketbooth/...

This is the first major milestone on the project we have been working on for over three years now: an online repository of the music of Oriel. Do have a browse, then learn a song or tune from Oriel. Go on, get a new party piece. OTMA.ie
