Done, falling a bit behind in my 'one book a month' target for 2025 but this is the first book I've stuck at for years. It started well, dipped a bit in the middle but finished strongly, 100% deserving of its international acclaim and success. Well worth a read. #KilliansBooks2025

A cover of a book called The Racket, author is Conor Niland. There is a broken tennis racquet on the cover of the book.

You having a bad day, David? You should go get some fresh air and maybe an ice cream.

Well, it could be the same right around the country but I'm in Dublin and so can't testify to the madness of others. Except for cork people, they're mad regardless of the weather.

It's 12c and all of Dublin are acting like it's the 19th day of a sweltering summer heatwave. Shorts & t-shirts, queues to get to the beach in Bray, no ice-cream left in Lidl and the smell of BBQ filling the air. Mad stuff.

It's an interesting exercise I'll look at later - I wonder how much I could swap out and what the € difference in doing so might be.

But that's not why they're switching, they're switching or boycotting because DEI/Trump/Evil etc. (most are anyway) We could have all bought Irish last year but didn't! But if makes people think then absolutely, it's a great thing.

Killian Byrne @killianbyrne.bsky.social · 08/03/2025

I see the problem as being twofold. Firstly if you're (I don't mean you specifically) ideologically boycotting then you should boycott all - not just the ones that suit your lifestyle. The second one is volume, most of these companies are multi billion $ companies, it's hardly a dent in their cash.

Killian Byrne @killianbyrne.bsky.social · 08/03/2025

Given about 85% of stuff in our shops is owned by about 5 companies, ideological product 'boycotts' are impractical and really nothing more than showboating. If you're going to do one then you should do all and anyone who thinks that's practical is looking at this for next week's dinner...

Can't say I'm 100% confident about this rugby match. Ireland will need a lot of surprises up their sleeves to win today. But as always, c'mon Ireland. #IREvFRA

Spice bag, chicken fillet roll or a breakfast roll - we really must be scraping the culinary barrel of that's all we have to offer! What about a beef and Guinness stew (or pie), Irish stew, a decent fry (hard to do with US sausages), Shepard's pie. To be honest I've an urge for a spice bag now!

Killian Byrne @killianbyrne.bsky.social · 08/03/2025

I'm actually ok with it - it's a little bit sour and a little bit of a 'fizz' if that makes sense but the family would prefer a flavour. As it's only a 24hr process there are plenty of opportunities to experiment - I've put some raspberries into a bottle today, we'll see how that goes.

I understand this is probably a very niche post but is there anyone out there who makes #kefir ? How do you add flavour through a second #fermentation? Is it just a case of dropping some fruit into the drink and leaving it (refrigerated?) for another 24hrs?

Unfortunately if you want to maintain any type of pension stability or growth it looks as if arms manufacturing is the only sector with a current positive outlook.

If you get a chance to read 'Born to Win' by John Bertrand about the same series it is wonderful. Early sport psychology, excess money, sporting espionage and breaking the US grip on the cup. I'd hazard a guess it would be right up your street

A vsually impaired runner and his guide coming through 4k in about 5th position, that's around 20min 5k pace or faster. I am blown away by that kind of running ability. #parkrun #Loveparkrun

It's just the sheer volume of posters over there, hard for other platforms to break the twitter monopoly.

Another global news story but you'd hardly know it based on both Threads and Bluesky feeds. Despite all the bluster, the bots and abhorrent views of some, twitter remains the platform to source up to date breaking stories

Episode 2 was definitely better. Perhaps I was just in the wrong mood for episode 1 and David Baddiel wouldn't be my favourite personality but it's definitely an activity that I would like to do so I'm still interested and going to watch the rest of the series.

Watched 'The Gorge' on Disney? Apple? - an ok movie, very watchable but not very cerebral.
