A few years ago I made a series of mini drawings of interesting Irish women (available as a print here www.ciaraioch.com/artprints/p/...) - this thread is a little information on the women featured, partly because it's useful, but mostly because I'm trying to be sustainable by recycling content.

First #MiniMná is Bernadette Devlin McAliskey - civil & human rights activist, shot by paramilitaries, clattered the Home Secretary when he said British soldiers on Bloody Sunday acted "in self-defence", and all-round legend. (There's a less cartoony print here www.ciaraioch.com/artprints/p/...)

Oisin travelled with us 3 weeks in a row 🚑

Oisin’s Mam, shared “The difference in our day by having Chris minding us was just phenomenal. He got us there and home safe & happy. Our little Oisín went to bed happy talking about Chris & the BUMBLEance and not the doctors and tests he was having done.”

My 7yo son is such an inveterate bookworm that pals regularly ask me for reading recommendations which might get their kids - especially boys - reading too.

So this week, I turn the reins of my column to the man himself, so he can give you his BOOKS OF THE YEAR.

If, like me, you did NOT get the ONE thing you wanted from Santy (a 95-year-old bachelor farmer with plenty land and a bad cough), treat yourself to a print from an Irish doodler instead - big discounts across the shop, including on bundles, so go on. Go on go on go ON.

If only santa had a team of these magnificent animals pulling his sleigh! When fully grown, they stood at around 2m at the shoulder and weighed over a tonne.
