Big Licence will be a big loss, especially with no obvious replacement and the lack of depth at that position for Ulster and Irish provinces in general.

Spiderland by Slint is one of the best albums to just set and forget and enjoy

From RTÉ: Single-shaming customs were especially prevalent in Munster. On Shrove Tuesday, single people might be jeered by their neighbours and captured and herded into ponds or around the streets. Their properties might be daubed with rude figures in tar or paint, and firecrackers set off outside. James Beale's 1845 painting Skellig Night on South Mall gets across the carnival atmosphere of Shrove Tuesday in Cork, as people are mocked and manhandled by the light of torches and bonfires.

In the same spirit, ‘Skellig lists’ were regularly produced in the 19th and early 20th centuries in Cork city and county, and parts of Kerry. Based on the conceit that the calendar of the Skelligs islands off the Kerry coast ran a day or more behind the rest of the country, it was derisively suggested that the unmarried should be paired up and sent there, allowing them a final chance to avoid ‘missing the boat’.

Single people after Valentine's Day: Well, at least that's over.

I listen to a fantastic rugby podcast by @dementedmole.bsky.social and not only is there no video, the presenters don’t even introduce themselves. I’ve been listening for 2 years now and still don’t know anyone’s name. It’s the ideal podcast, no frills just a concise hour of good discussion.

Blue Velvet is a great introduction and is more accessible than something like Mulholland Drive
