SHEETS of rain in Dublin right now. Even as a Kerry person born and reared in non-stop rain, I find this month of weather here has been gas.

The skater who performed to the cover versions of 'Hymne à l'amour', 'Je ne regrette rien', etc would have won if she'd gone full Piaf: leave them all in floods of tears, throwing gold medals at her #Analysis #Olympics

Right now at the Winter Olympics, a figure skater is performing to 'MacArthur Park' - the Donna Summer style, not the Richard Harris version.

The algorithm came good at last, and gave me the brilliant '80s Estonian soul-folk groove of 'Stopp, Seisku Aeg!' by Velly Joonas: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEb6...

Call My Bluff was on an hour earlier than usual tonight so I missed it, fml. I bet it had great words on it and all.

29-0, the most dangerous lead in rugby #Analysis #6Nations #FRAvIRL

Anyway. This is nice. #FRAvIRE #SixNations

For away games in Paris we should replace 'Ireland's Call' with 'Les Lacs De Connemara'. Win over the French crowd straight from the start, have them singing for us all through the match #SixNations #FRAvIRE

How many Internet cafés still exist, do you think?
Internet cafes: still a thing! This one on Grafton Street has been here since the early '00s: the amount of time and money I spent there!
