Berlin Marathon - done! 🏅
Hard work in a 27C heatwave so a little slower than I’d have liked at about 4:13:43 but such an emotion running under the Brandenburg Gate and through! 🇩🇪
Last shout for sponsorship - have raised over £2k for Alzheimer's Research UK 👉 tinyurl.com/24rtnbuk

Derry nun Clare Crockett is on the path to sainthood… that it started with confusion over an Ibiza party is objectively cool
More than that, her story should inspire us and continually make our world a little bit better

Derry nun's journey to sainthood starting with an Ibiza party confusion is objectively cool
It is objectively cool that Ireland’s next saint will be a woman who became a nun after mistakenly thinking she was “going to Ibiza to party”.

Belfast City Airport can make a simple change to solve its ‘drop off’ headaches… if it’s not about the money

Northern Ireland’s family farmers need our support - it’s not just the rich and famous impacted by inheritance tax changes. Jeremy Clarkson might be better off taking a back seat on this one.
