I dug this little bottle of Lourdes holy water out this morning. Packed away with the Kerry kit, It was given to me as a gift after Tyrone beat Kerry in 2005, and I reckoned today was the day to put it to good use! 🙏💚
Now it’s splashed for the journey to Croker with me. Safe travels to every Kerry supporter making the trip today. Here’s hoping we’re all making an even happier journey home this evening.
Up the Kingdom! Come on Kerry! 💚💛🏐 #KerryAbú #KerryGAA #AllIreland
In this moment today it felt as though @CormacBegley West Kerry and Ireland was sharing its soul. Proud to be Irish. 🇮🇪
Last tractors leave O'Connell Street.
Back to Pennys for a repurchase and it's very emotional here.
When Push Comes to Shove!

No buses running — just tried to get one.
Public transport via bus effectively shut down right now into town and buses congregated outside The Clayton on Leeson Street.
Difficult scenes to watch in Whitegate at the moment as negotiations continue...
And this was the atmosphere on O’Connell Street.
“How can I protect you in this crazy world”

Went into Pennys just before closing - came back out to this on O'Connell Street
Wait for it...
Not what I expected on O'Connell Street

Went into Penneys just before closing — came back out to this on O’Connell Street
Wait for it…
A different type of transport has arrived in the city centre.

My sister and I are so sad to hear of Vicky Phelan's passing. An amazing woman who was so authentic and an inspiration to us both when we met her. Deepest condolences to her family & all who love her. What a brave hero she was to our country.💔irishtimes.com/ireland/2022/…

So, how is this precariously employed academic at @tcddublin coping with Ireland's devastating housing and cost of living crises? Buckle up, this isn't pretty. (A thread) 1/20

Just a reminder that many small Irish bookshops rely on schoolbook sales to stay open - I'm all for free schoolbooks for kids but councils/schools should source them from Irish bookshops (who already offer school discounts!) #SupportBookshops #SupportLocal #Budget #Schoolbooks
The State is to provide free schoolbooks to all primary school children from next September, under an initiative to be announced as part of tomorrow's Budget rte.ie/news/2022/0925/132544…
“Thank You!” to @irishexaminer for highlighting my and László Molnárfi’s research paper on the HEA Bill 2022. The HEA Bill does not protect student representation. We need a clear definition and support from the minister in @OireachtasNews this evening.

Signing up to the Lidl plus app qualifies you to claim a dedicated coupon for a free box of sanitary pads or tampons monthly. The initiative started in April and they donate period products to the homeless @SimonCommunity It’s a timely idea with the current cost-of-living crisis.
