    Dalkey is lovely, i used live there for a few years, but couldn't afford to buy a house there. Great to see Flann O'Brien in the comments - an under appreciated genius

    Yeah, it's great stuff - you can drink skips of the stuff and no hangover - well me 20 years ago could! I've great memories of sitting around on those tiny stools with friends - su…

    Sometimes when I read things like this I despair - AI could be game changing, targetting complex issues around health, genetics etc. Instead its deployed mainly in the continued tr…

    I work in the same building as Pintrest - they have prime real estate in the centre of Dublin, with an office that looks to be tricked out to the max - and sometimes I see some peo…

    I adore Money and London Fields. The zone of interest is a masterpiece. The man was one of the most consistently creative and interesting writers we've seen. I'd also wager he woul…

    That's a pity, sacrificing quality and end user experience to squeeze another dollar out of the system. Reminds me of Cadbury chocolate, when I was a kid it was incredible - a real…

    Not sure if it's an issue localised to Ireland, but I've avoided Starbucks since I started seriously drinking coffee - not because of the price, but any cup I've had (and they're m…

    I find that subject facinating - can you recommend any resources or literature on this? I'm not religious, but I find relegion facinating!

    Love that season of the Wire. I'm from rural Ireland and there is a body of water near my home that is a suicide hotspot - 2 towns on the same river have given their share of young…

    I've always maintained this is the greatest set of lyrics ever put together. Love, loss, war, ptsd - it is up there with the finest poems and sonnets ever composed.

    An absolute wordsmith, 'a pair of brown eyes' is as close to a perfect song. Novels of thousands of pages haven't told a story as deeply as that song. His version of the Band playe…

    I’m from rural Ireland, and I always remember my first roundabout - I used go driving with my dad when learning, and as the weeks progressed I’d get closer and closer to Killarney …

    I started this last night and quickly lashed through 2 episodes - really enjoying it. Very it's got a good Succession horror vibe to it.

    Same in Ireland, some high profile cases were prosecuted- but not the majority, and nothing happened the nuns - especially the evil that ran the mother and baby homes. 300+ babies …

    I'm from Kerry and it makes me so proud to hear everyone praising Kerrygold. It really is an incredible product. My grandfather worked all his life with Kerry Co-Op which was Kerry…
