#InternationalWomensDay

Watched Rental Family tonight, it won’t win any awards, but it was a thoroughly enjoyable movie. Brendan Fraser was excellent.

I honestly think it’s not entirely his fault, any time I watch the English Premiership, all of the teams are playing this type of rugby.

Ill discipline and always trying to play on the edge of legality, play the game simply and things will change.

It’s going to be some game next week, Scotland looking good

This is a fantastic game of rugby, unbelievable performance from Scotland

Fuck, and in a very real sense, me.

That’s the plot of an espionage thriller, fucking hell 😱

Huntley dead, and the world is slightly less shit.

Don’t make a hero of his killer though. He’s already on a whole life sentence for three murders, including a five-month pregnant mother who he also raped.

Remember the victims of these foul men.

Enjoy the beer and the sunshine.

That sounds like a brilliant week away, and as you say, the last for a while.

Enjoy Madrid, beautiful city. Best not dwell on the football 😬

The underfunding of everything has hit the health services so hard that it’s rendered health care barely functional. I’m only in Ballyclare, if you need anything, give me a DM .

Aw man, I can’t begin to imagine what you as a family have been through. Sending you love

Very true

Saying goodbye is so important, because it’s not really saying goodbye, it’s just saying that you love them.

It was lovely and yes we were so lucky to be able to spend time with her.

Us Irish people are strange and awkward around loving family members, until the end of life. Then we seem to become incredibly open and loving. I vividly remember the family spending the last few days of my mum’s life sitting with her and laughing with her and telling her how we loved her.

A week into the war and the US has killed 180 school girls and committed a war crime at sea.

I’m sorry but I’ve just learned that Dexter Sol Ansell who plays Egg in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms went to school in costume AS HIMSELF for World Book Day and I am delighted beyond the bounds of reason.
