You may think that the Italians have a lot of different owls but, in fact, they have even more consonants.

Friday's weather forecast is looking pretty rough for most of the island of Ireland. Still, nice to see that our friends in the North seemingly won't face the full Status Red ravages of #StormEowyn. [No 🍊 political comments please.] #SpeirGorm #SpeirGhorm

#Everton are riddled with contradictions. Their team tonight includes Young, who is ancient, and Gueye, who has previously avoided matches where he would have had to wear an LGBT 🌈symbol. Plus Keane whose eagerness mustn't have impressed his new boss much on the training ground as he's on the bench.

[As a noted Christian] he should build frateral ties with the🌎 Gaeilge-exempt students in another IN article (further down page) as allies against its perfidious classroom influence. Then call for greatly increased immigration to safeguard the imperilled globalised anglosphere as our lingua franca.🫣

This NCT 🚘car test waiting room is one of the most anxious-looking places I've ever been as ashen-faced drivers await the worst of the diagnosis from the man with the clipboard 📋. They should have a roaming therapy cat for people to stroke.

In terms of grills or grilling, you might be confusing the Renaissance era with that time just before the discovery of 🔥 when meat was traitionally consumed on the rare side.

Drove back to Cork this afternoon and think we may have stumbled upon the source of all that #sneachta, off the motorway before Portlaoise. Presumably Met Eireann have issued the chimney stack in question with a license. #speirgorm

If Wilson's Hospital school had been closed due to #sneachta this morning, I wonder would Enoch Burke still have (been) driven over from Mayo on a fool's errand?

More dramatic #sneachta ❄️ empty shelves today. This time genuine and from Kells, Co Meath, where the locals have stockpiled personal care and, intriguingly, hair colour products. #SpeirGorm

There needs to be a collage of clips of the few seconds in each episode of Columbo where the villain who thought he'd gotten away with literal murder realises "this pesky bumbling scruffy🥼detective is actually onto and reeling me in!". The moment their faces go from confident smarm to sudden alarm.

Is not having your suitcase emerge on the 🛬Arrivals luggage carousel the polar opposite of the "unexpected item in baggage area" recorded warning at a supermarket self-checkout?

I felt unsafe in the "Aviva" as I don't believe pallindromes should serve as sports venues. Except in Navan.

I was convinced (until now) that white paint being lighter than coloured and therefore needing less fuel was given as a reason for Aer Lingus' "brand refresh" of its "livery" about 5 years ago. Less green = more green?
