Short and Irish and a bit anxious about everything.

Been a long, hard but lovely few days saying goodbye and remembering the wee force of nature that is my ma but now I think I need a week or two's sleep. How lucky we were!

The less said about me almost falling into the open grave this morning the better.

I don't know how to say this other than if Vito Coppola put me through a pasta maker, boiled me in hot water and covered me in bolognese sauce I'd still thank him #strictly

I've always had so much space in my heart for Lisa Kudrow, but oh my goodness she's ASTOUNDING in No Good Deed. The first Netflix show I've binged in one session in forever because it's just so darkly funny and unpredictable.

You've heard of elf on the shelf but what about Carol on a barrel?

Thanks to #imaceleb I've gone from not caring one way or the other about Coleen Rooney to thinking we should abolish the monarchy and appoint her head of state.

Evening before the Marriage referendum, Sinead O’Connor called me worried cos she couldn’t find her passport and was afraid they wouldn’t let her vote (as if I was an expert in such things!). I asked if she was voting at her local station, and said “I think you’ll be grand! You’re Sinead O’Connor!”
I once showed up without ID and a polling clerk I didn't recognise looked at me and said "Yeah, that's definitely him."

59 years today since my parents got married and 8 years tomorrow since my poor wee da died so as usual I'm laughing at this picture of the day they got engaged, thankful that I only have the third worst hair in the family.

I listened to the new Band Aid remix so you don't have to — and the nicest thing I can say about it is that it's only five minutes long

35 years of age and my mind has been blown because someone pointed out WKD is Wicked with ice in it. Like... wICkEd.

Everyone posting John Prescott eulogies but all I can think about is the Nicola Roberts b-side Disco Blisters and a Comedown with the lyrics 'why do the lights in the kebab shop make this guy look less hot? He's looking like John Prescott.'
