Very sad. One would wonder how this could happen that an actor was handed a lethal weapon. Feel very sorry for Alec Baldwin, a tragic accident that he will relive for the rest of his day's. Don't know how anyone could even think he's responsible for this.

So, that's it....my job is advertised. No turning back now. As much as I don't want to leave, bossperson doesn't want me to leave either. So, we've agreed I can do a bit from home (hours to suit myself + payrise), and the new full time person will be in the office.....doing less than I did. I had t...

Read about that this morning, when I saw the bit about the wooden cross being pulled up and used as a weapon, I thought we have definitely reached a new low. V upsetting for the family of whoever is buried there - disgraceful carry on.

Well Del! Aren't you the lucky one. I am so jellus of your good fortune. What do you plan to spend the money on or do you intend to do a good deed and distribute it to other worthy causes like Frances and paddy did?

I am indeed considering offering a course or courses such is the demand for being right-on and #woke right now. If you were to send me a private message with a 100,000 word explanation as to why you should be considered suitable, along with a cheque for say €30,000 as a non-refundable deposit (smal...

How sad am I that I recognise that actor from fair city.
Good ad.

I was thinking of asking Leo to cancel GAA because of the lack of diversity at inter-county level. I can't remember when I last saw a person of colour on The Sunday Game either playing or on the panel......it's just not right in this day and age. I have written to my spiritual advisor Dr. Ebun Jose...

For me it's that newish Vodafone ad with the kid that seems to feel neglected by his parents as they favour the younger brother. So it shows the mother reading to the younger kid and the older guy visibly upset etc etc. To deal with this issue of sad child who feels left out, the parents buy him a p...

Have never seen that ad, not sure why. It's great, very well done

Great actor. Rip.

This afternoon we got heavy drizzle and a light wind, was really lovely. Maybe I'm a bit odd but I love this time of year when the evenings get dark and we get rain. I really love it if we get wind and rain together, nothing better than heading out for a walk in that weather. Don't like the summer a...

You know when there are a number of ways of doing something.. I dunno about ye but I get wrapped up in whats the best option.. waste time figuring stuff out.. personally I don't know if a lot of options/choice is a good thing.. think I am better suited to a more simple life - with less too boggle m...

Does this strike anyone else as most odd, and unacceptable? Surely a brutal murder such as this should and must be investigated and the offender prosecuted as appropriate? This is very strange alright, surely if the person who committed this crime is detected, then there will be some sort of conseq...

Life's a bitch..... What's the Irish for that

Well if this is coming to Galway I hope something is done about the traffic situation there although the link below does state Oranmore as the possible location. Had to collect my son from nuig last Friday and it took over an hour from the clinic roundabout to nuig. Granted it was just around rush h...

Anyone know where you can get a decent Scallions (spring onions?). Its only occasionally and not in any particular season that any of the main supermarkets have good stock. Most of the stock seems to have been stored for months before going on sale. We grew a limited supply ourselves this year but ...

Indeed! Although I think he has a kind of a guilty look on him in that pic above, like he's been caught doing something he shouldn't

He was lucky you found him ;) He was and so was I. Usually check them twice a day and all was fine yesterday evening around 8pm so it was sometime during the night/ early morning he got stuck. It was very mild but I'm sure if the weather was cold an animal wouldnt fare out so well up to their back ...

Look what greeted me when I went to check on cattle. Totally stuck in drain. No budging him, needed tractor and front loader and a bit of help. Lifted out, was fine but as I started to repair fence he turned and headed straight back to the hole he was just lifted from!

Have never experienced it in real life but have seen a few good ones on YouTube. The one in your post Del_Monte is pretty impressive alright.

When he thought he’d got away with it just before Darragh called was peak Will. Legend, the smirk will live on in our hearts :D I actually thought he wasn't the worst actor, just the story lines are brutal. Everything happens at the speed of light. If a character takes a drink on a Monday, they're ...

Will was some character. Wasn't he just!! Have a 16 year old here and he watched FC just for Will and the overall 'comedy factor' of Fair City. I was warned tho not to let on to his friends he watched it or his reputation would be ruined. Not sure if its worth it now Will is gone, we might have to ...

Absolutely ridiculous story anyway. Getting your two nephews to do it

I know!! Two total goons. Like every story line in FC, its ridiculous. Its like a comedy. I'll miss Will though

Oh God, just seeing this now. I was on boards for years, rarely posted but ODB was one of my favourite posters. Not only was she so engaging and articulate, she used to talk about her declining health quite openly but it didn't define her or cloud her posts at all. So awfully sad, at such a young ag...
