RNLI crew rush to save four men on 'rapidly' sinking trawler off Cork coast Mayday sent out at 8.35pm - vessel was underwater just minutes later

Amazing work - as always - from Cork's brave RNLI volunteers ๐Ÿ‘

Another full house expected for tonight's Creedon Show. The best seat in the house is already gone, but in fairness, she's family and arrived early. She usually heads for the mosh pit once the show starts at 8pm. Some seats also available in the balcony. @rteradio1.bsky.social

Josh's nose had been bleeding for twenty minutes now, and he was starting to get freaked out.

What is โ€˜Six Sevenโ€™ and why is the world currently obsessed with this latest online trend? The viral phrase from a 2024 rap track has children shouting in unison โ€” and leaving adults utterly lost

A facinating read about the earliest steps in our presidential history. Ireland's first president who was simply appointed, our second who was elected, the reporting styles of the time and one woman's complaint about the profilieration of unwanted election literature, a tradition that endures.

Wonderful. I too have spotted them happily fishing side by side near the Lee Maltings. The heron waiting to pounce and the egret rattling the stones beneath the surface in search of a pop-up lunch! Beautiful pic Gemma.
