First year selling my art at Christmas without the Other site, where most of my sales came from, as well as losing US orders to new tariffs, so it'll be a tough one - I put huge work into every order, so even if you can't buy, shares help get them in front of eyes. GRMA! www.ciaraioch.com/artprints

Word of the Day is ‘ingordigiousness’ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

Here's something that takes seconds and could have actual positive outcomes.

There is an official 'citizen's petition' system in the EU. There's one open at the moment to ban conversion therapy for LGBT+ people in the EU.

Ireland can be 1 of the 7 nations needed

But… but… avocado toast and Netflix or whatever
Like boiled frogs, we're inured to modern-day house prices. Looking at 1980 document of my uncle, a bank porter, where on a salary of €2,500 a year, he had a house worth €8,000. That house adjusted for inflation should be worth €35,000. A similar one on the same crescent sold last year for €900K.

A storm is a great time to steal a trampoline from a garden.
They'll assume it blew away.
But they won't look in case it killed someone.

Today is the day to prepare for the Storm.
- Secure your property - loose objects can become missiles in violent winds.
- Plan for loss of utilities - electricity, communications & water.
- Check on vulnerable neighbours.
- Have basic provisions to stay indoors Friday.

Word of day is ‘unasinous’ (17th century): united in stupidity.

A riff on ‘unanimous’: which comes from the Latin for ‘one mind’. ‘Unasinous’ means ‘one ass’.

Shortly after Enoch Burke was released from prison, he again took up position outside the school he was arrested for trespassing at.

There, he and his family again misrepresented the events that began their conflict with the school and the law.

Are you suffering with a slight dose of the fear about heading back into the office tomorrow?

Take a deep breath, relax, and immerse yourself in the beautiful sights and sounds of the Irish landscape for a moment.
