Society abuzz as newly single felt magnate Beefcliff Speevens redoubles his attentions on bike accessory heiress, Trevorina Halfords.
A Page Six story from 2019, which has been unspooling my brain ever since: two entirely anonymous looking human beings under the headline "Tinsley Mortimer gets flirty with model Bertil Espregren".

'I get down on my knees and do what must be done And kiss Achilles' hand, the killer of my son.' Have always been deeply deeply obsessed with this poem. 💔 Codladh sámh, Michael Longley.
CEASEFIRE
I
Put in mind of his own father and moved to tears
Achilles took him by the hand and pushed the old king Gently away, but Priam curled up at his feet and Wept with him until their sadness filled the building.
Taking Hector's corpse into his own hands Achilles Made sure it was washed and, for the old king's sake, Laid out in uniform, ready for Priam to carry Wrapped like a present home to Troy at daybreak.
III
When they had eaten together, it pleased them both To stare at each other's beauty as lovers might, Achilles built like a god, Priam good-looking still And full of conversation, who earlier had sighed:
IV
'I get down on my knees and do what must be done And kiss Achilles' hand, the killer of my son.'

RIP Michael Longley. I'd known him for over 40 years when he taught an Arvon with Paul Muldoon. I always said Paul supplied the genius, but Michael the magic: how else would a classicist write 'Ceasefire', an intervention into a vicious war admired by both sides? Ave atque vale.

"MESSAGE TO ALL BITCHES" the first speech bubble reads

I've had this column planned for a while. I hope it brings nothing but curious new subscribers to Ireland's brilliant literary journals. In tomorrow's @irishindependent.bsky.social Review section or at www.independent.ie/entertainmen... right now...

Rick O’Shea: Buying a gift for a choosy reader? I know just the thing
When I was seven or eight, my grandmother started buying me a copy of Commando comic every week because I had picked it up one Saturday when I had been out with her. She didn’t realise that later the ...

Bringing out a sportsperson during the books segment is a DISGRACE #LateLateToyShow

Obviously a novelty, but the Toy Show really does something special in celebrating children and goes a long way to illustrate how special childhood is, or should be, which feels like an especially necessary message this year given the violence and death in Gaza #LateLateToyShow

Deeply triggered by the space-kids being surprised by an Irish astronaut and given gifts from space, years of watching awkward interactions with Irish sportpeople washed away #latelatetoyshow

I have migrated from the other place, but intend to bring my shady demeanour and moustache twirling with me.
