Duke’s Brew & Que in De Beauvoir.
Not only did they do amazing ribs, burgers & wings (great ingredients, provenance listed as Antrim IIRC) they also had the original Beavertown Brewery in the basement & the beers were far and above better than what it now produces under Heineken’s watch.

please tell me about your favorite lost restaurant (closed for at least 5 years, like I really want you to go back into the vault), why you loved it and what you ate there

I played football against Stephen Bartlett (not knowing who he was at the time)
Please quote this with stories of your minor interactions with non-celebrities, e.g. “I once accidentally bumped into a man in the Wellingborough branch of Holland & Barrett”

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

Mutiple media outlets reporting that ITV has outbid TNT Sports for rights to the new Nations Championship.

No more Champions Cup, Challenge Cup, autumn internationals or Champions League (from 2027) on TNT.

With all the kicking long to touch, long-throws & corners on top of the keeper I can’t believe no-one has tried an up & under! Roll it on to your foot, flip it up and hoist it up into the sky, landing it around the 6-yard box. Mikel, am available for consultancy
Everybody should absolutely view this as an invitation to drop your spiciest soccer takes.
lol I’m gonna need bluesky’s biggest soccer post ever to balance out all the politics engagement im burying myself under.

So games v NZ, Aus & SA in Nov; away to Fra & Eng in 6Ns 26; away to Aus & NZ in July 26 and SA again at home in Nov 26- if they’re not battle-hardened for RWC 27 after all that, they never will be!

Missed the game but appears I was right- awful shame that Ireland is discontinuing 7s programme as Hugo’s finish was a product of it
youtu.be/yd1xXnmvOEQ?...
Not sure if you’ve watched much of HK but being from a 7s background he knows exactly how to work in a system to create try-scoring opps- lovely score v NZ in attached but his animation to fix defenders is brilliant- my favourite current Irish player

Understand that there are ructions in the camp- some believe that Ringrose could have played but is saving himself for the greater honour of playing for Leinster
Garry Ringrose was told he was starting the Lions' second Test.

But right at the end of training today, he told Andy Farrell he didn't feel right.

Very honest and selfless from Ringrose to rule himself out of his Lions Test debut.

'A measure of the man' - Ringrose ruled himself out of Lions Test start
The Irish centre had been told he was starting against the Wallabies.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.
