My kids think it's weird that it was a regular occurrence for our primary teachers to tell "Téigh a chodladh" and we'd just put put heads down while they did . . . something? Apparently this is no longer common practice. #SpéirGorm

I'm thinking of setting up a campsite on the coast near some dolphins. Going to call it "For all in tents. And Porpoises."

I can't think of a bigger gap between spin and fact as the one between "the opposition are subverting democracy" and "the government want to sit on both government and opposition benches"
