Sometimes it takes a while for the news to sink in so maybe I'm a bit late to the party, but. Ed Miliband talked about a ban on arms sales that support the occupation. So the Palestine Action activists on remand are being charged with trying to prevent something that will soon be illegal?

I have it in my mind that I once saw a map of where Irish people mean when they say "town" based on location - with a good chunk of Leinster meaning Dublin, and clusters in the hinterland of other cities and larger towns. But I have no idea if it actually existed or if I had just imagined it.

I'd forgotten how difficult it can be to work from home in a place where someone has the same name as you. Whenever i hear my name my focus is pulled and then I have to figure out if it was referring to me or my Dad and then try to get back to figuring out how to manipulate headers in https proxies

..either side of a consonant, so in rothar (bike) the consonant th has broad vowels (o & a) either side of it. Buidéal (bottle) - that d has slender vowels (i & é) either side. There are exceptions, often compound words.

(as it turns out it's more like "ann seo" - "there this" and "ann sin" - "there that" but it's still magical) *there are rules to spelling in Irish that guide correct pronunciation, one is about how vowels sit either side of consonants. Either slender vowels (e i) or broad vowels (a o u) will go...

Still remember the moment, sitting at temporary traffic lights in Carlow, staring at a sign that read "Fan anseo ar dearg", thinking Wait a minute, the spelling of anseo doesn't follow the rules* Most of the exceptions are compound words Anseo isn't a compound wo Woah The Irish for HERE is THE THIS

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

The eldest was doing a project on Shackleton, and that photo of Tom Crean with the puppies still amazes me every time I see it.

Tom Crean, the toughest, triple hard beast of a man to ever come out of Ireland, holding 4 adorable husky puppies.
