Aww 🥰 they’re adorable 💙💙 totally regretting not taking one of Buddy’s siblings when we got him 4 years ago now.

This is quite nice. There are some really lovely people in here if you ignore Jon Voight eg Mel Brooks, Morgan Freeman, Ian McKellen, James Hong, to name just four. And I was over the moon to see Tom Skerritt is still alive ... I thought he was dead! 🙌🏻

Ah doggies are the great ice melters ☺️

At least they’re polite. I would like to think that they’re feeling pleasantly validated upon getting a lovely comment about their ‘rig out’

Teenagers - I will never understand them. I currently have two and am none the wiser 🤷🏻‍♀️ I would have thought that to compliment another persons creative endeavours was a positive thing but, again, teenagers.

After a binge fest on ‘The Good Doctor’ I got to the last episode of the ‘final’ series (5). I was perplexed with the ending so I googled it to find there are another 2 seasons which haven’t been released here or UK yet and now am trying to forget all the spoilers I now know 🤨

Absolutely, Trish. Buddy is the least taxing company and once he’s fed and groomed, he deigns to keep watch and join me in ‘The Good Doctor’ binges.

Cat company 🐈‍⬛ while you’re feeling miserable is the best type of company. No talking, no expectations and cat naps from all parties.

Good stuff. Should be feeling semi normal by Monday 💊

Looking fab, Roisin. Sounds nice a busy but lovely day.

I am 50 this year and have never once listened to a podcast 🙈

Mam’s Heavenly 80th birthday - I’m sure Dad is spoiling her today 🤍🤍

Thought you’d enjoy this.

Aww thank you, Roisin 🙏🏻 I have never read an entire book in one sitting (or lying down as it were) but I just couldn’t put it down 💕

Roisin, I started Second Chances this morning at 3am, not being able to sleep due to a nasty chest infection, and I have just finished it! You have outdone yourself - I laughed and cried and conjured up Chance House vividly. I hate that I’ve finished it! It was hopeful and wonderful 👏🏻 sequel please!

I will never forget when I was volunteering at the Kilkenny Cat Laughs festival in 1996 I actually got to introduce Graham onto the ‘stage’ and afterwards he told me how delighted he was to have met Thelma Mansfield in RTÉ. Keep working at it, Graham…your big break is just around the corner!

In case there was any doubt about the shocking weather we've had of late, to see this footage sent through by Maxi McCann around the Estuary that shows just what heavy rain on saturated ground combined with high river levels and high tides can do.

Insanely good is an excellent persuader in fairness! Enjoy the next few weeks after all your hard work x

Roisin, I can highly recommend the Eddie Rockets garlic sauce 🚀 for your next purchase! Looking forward to Second Chances, wishing you much luck and success with it.

What a glorious day…the Tree Top walk in Avondale is utterly breathtaking. Good for the soul.

🤣 we were SOOOO cool with our 14 hole Doc Martens and Metallica long sleeves. Happy times!

That was another establishment I only visited once 🙈 I think far too much of my time back then was spent in Fibber McGee’s.

😅 I never knew that! To my shame, that evening was my first visit to Mulligan’s and it was memorable.

Noel Hawkins, the bartenders' bartender - a tribute Noel Hawkins began working in Mulligan's of Poolbeg Street in Dublin in 1979. During his near half-century behind the bar, he became one of the capital's most well-known and best-loved characters.

A fine tribute. Met Noel last March, we were early for Ed Byrne’s show & wandered over to Mulligan’s for a drink. What an experience & pleasure it was to chat with Noel. His charismatic energy was infectious & before we laughed at Ed, we laughed with Noel. Sad news. RIP.

I just thought of the scene from Home Alone 2 with her and John Candy sitting in the van talking about life and parenthood and I can’t believe they’re both gone. Her rendition of Danny Boy in Schitt’s Creek will always be my favourite cover version. Goodnight, Moira Rose 🌹
