Patrick O' Reilly

Not sure a protest vote is the most valid reason for choosing a candidate.

Bored with Catherine Connelly stuff now. Was mildly amusing for about 5 minutes.

I had that exact thought last night, we don’t look dainty any more - we look like a proper physical, no nonsense outfit.

Grow up

Giving this piece of insight a bump!

Happy Flying Ants Day to those who celebrate

Late invite to Bar Pez on Kevin Street. Have that Tuesday!

As the slow motion car crash continues to unfold in America, I find myself having less and less sympathy for them. They voted for this.

Those who wish to be seen as the most ardent followers of their imaginary sky friend, tend to be types who wish to exert power and influence over others.

Bloke in GAA shorts, shoes and socks in the supermarket. Irish men’s summer fashion is a sight to behold

Counting the minutes until the whole conclave nonsense is over. Tedious.

Watch this space

I’d argue that Tesla was heading for a fall even before Musk destroyed their brand. BYD have eaten their lunch. Superior product at 75% of the price.

My Kiwi friends might disagree but I’ve never tasted better than Irish lamb

Not religious in any way but always plenty of chocolate and roast lamb!

The wonders of gas flushing

Enjoying a post work bank holiday pint, and reflecting on the absurdity of the days when the church told us we couldn’t have one.

Found Adolescence a properly adult, complex, humane drama. To see it whittled down into 'ban phones in school' is so depressing.

They walk among us. Usually afflicted with a dangerous combination of religion and a lack of education.

My daughter got them a while ago. I can confirm that they taste every bit as vile as they look.

Or Obama’s tan suit

If yer man’s “comedy” wasn’t enough reason to avoid him, his non-apology apology should seal the deal.

Made the rookie mistake of not silencing my weekday alarm. Awake at 6am on bank holiday. Lovely

What would this guy have to do to warrant a custodial sentence?

Still thinking about the guy at the packed departure gate in Dublin Airport last week who lifted his leg and let the longest, loudest fart you can imagine. Seemed sober and unfazed.

We ask all overseas suppliers who they use to deliver their goods. If it’s UPS, we will arrange collection. They are utterly useless on every level.

Experienced a MAGA redneck in Florida last week. The worst kind of human.
