Here to tap into the insight of those much more informed than me. Particularly interested in politics and Irish rugby.
Spent the last few days hosting colleagues from the UK and US in Limerick city. It’s the perfect location for international visitors, good value, great restaurants and small enough to explore on foot. Special mention to The Curragower pub and Bunratty Christmas show

It’s Toy Show day! I’ll muddle through the grown-up routines, but am giddy for this 😀. For non-Irish folks, this show is a Christmas tradition for almost 50 years. A talk show dedicated to kids and toys for one night only. www.rte.ie/entertainmen...

We went to the Gaeity Theatre panto this evening with our three kids…there is little else as pure. A theatre full of kids, adults and performers giving it loads. Great craic.

The low turn out for the Irish election is worrying. Regardless of political viewpoints it’s something I hope the next dáil considers carefully. A disengaged electorate is dangerous. We saw during the referenda that the Irish public do engage in politics when they feel it’s relevant to them.

It’s election day in Ireland. Thankfully there’s less of a far right movement but you can see flavours emerging. This leaflet from an independent candidate through my door for instance!
