Sooo I’ve a new podcast ✨It’s called ‘What Did You Eat This Week?’ and will be a weekly dive into food, travel bits & bobs and chats with friends and people I love about what they love (and hate) in the world of food 🍽 Gonna share trailer links below ⬇️
Pelé & Vivienne Westwood have died. Prince Andrew The Musical just screened on Channel 4. Andrew Tate has been arrested for human trafficking after he gave his address out via a clap-back video to Greta Thunberg. Sometimes a year’s events can happen in one evening.
How staying in on a Saturday goes for me: extremely smug, very smug, smug, watching stories and feeling fomo, feeling VIOLENT FOMO, feeling like I’m missing out on the best night of mankind. Sunday morning: absolutely delighted I didn’t go out.
I’d love if they covered the UKs big 1st night out in June like a Royal wedding. I want around-the-clock coverage, interviews with drunk people, panel discussions, a fashion expert commenting on what people are wearing, helicopter shots of streets filled with people.
Do you know what I find super easy? Respecting trans people, not questioning their existence and just living my life & letting them live theirs. It’s surprisingly so simple ‼️
Top pic: Miggeldy watching the Mexican wave approach him. Gearing up for it. Bottom pic: Miggeldy taking part in the Mexican wave. Having the time of his presidential life. VOTE FOR MIGGELDY 🇮🇪
Hearing people who aren’t teachers or nurses or public transport drivers (or whoever is striking) complain about them striking and saying things like “they earn enough!” like are you for real?! Who the hell are you to say that what they earn is sufficient. Stay in your lane bitch
You’re at Electric Picnic, It’s 2am, you’re freezin and you’ve lost everyone/your drink. You’ve given up. GO TOBANN: you spot your entire group, frantically waving at you with a bag of cans. You RUN over and dance the night away at the Forest Rave. I’M GONNA MISS THAT 🥺
Lying in bed watching friends’ stories in Australia at massive outdoor gigs, squashed together, drinking and being messy like it’s 2019 hurts me deeply
Was so tough hearing rural pub owners crying on the radio tonight, at total breaking point. I would understand if the data backed up the reasoning behind keeping tiny pubs closed, but the tracing/technology clearly shows that these places (pubs/restaurants) aren’t a problem.
When she’s on the plane over to the UK to collect her ‘award’, she’ll probably be sitting amongst some of the 12 women (per day) who are forced to go there for a termination. They are in that position because of the Katies of the world 💁🏻♂️
If I was at this
#AnAudienceWithAdele
, I’d ask her two questions:
1) Does the unctuous sycophancy from your celebrity fans make you want to vomit?
2) How come you’re singing more perfectly ‘live’ than on your records?
* This probably explains why I wasn’t invited.
You know the way they do Aftersun after Love Island or Little Big Brother after Big Brother, well I’d love one for the Toy Show straight after. Maybe called Put The Toys Away. A panel of gas people dissecting what happened. With wine.
I’m self-employed, but find myself watching hours of Richard Grogan’s employment law content, preparing for a battle with my imaginary boss about holiday days & sick pay I’m due. Screaming “that’s a law, and that’s a fact” in their face.
All the people drinking takeaway pints on bathroom-less, freezin streets - HOW do you do it. It’s the most unappealing thing to me. I need glamour and tunes and a comfy perch and warmth and cocktails in nice glasses.
Today I REALLY miss the old world. I’d love to go on a gorgeous foreign holiday with me boyf. Eat in a stunning restaurant without mad hygiene formalities. I’d love to go to a big giant club rammed with people and have to queue for 25 mins to get a drink.
If I was a Garda I’d refuse to patrol on anything other than horseback. The absolute majesty of it. I’d also insist on a 20ft Garda cloak which would billow behind me as I gallop down Grafton St chasing criminals ✨
I love Irish nicknames/their origin stories. A girl just told me there’s a guy from her hometown who goes on lots of solo holidays and his nickname is Kathryn Thomas 💀
Going away for the night with a friend so doing an antigen test before we meet. Went to 2 pharmacies - both out of stock 🙃 Got one in a garage for EIGHT euro. Free in the UK 🙃 Like…. Should there not be a price limit on them so people are more encouraged to use them?
1,000 white crosses were placed outside the Irish President's house today
They were put there to mark the passage of legislation allowing for women to abort their children, alongside legislation which made sure they wouldn't receive pain relief before or burial after

Peered in a lot of windows on my evening walk, and so many had lamps AND the big light (🤢) on in their sitting rooms as they relaxed watching TV. Are they ok? Why would they inflict such a hate crime on themselves.
The FROM THE TOP bit in WAP is gonna be murder on the dancefloor when clubs back open. High kicks, broken noses, drinks flying and black eyes galore. Can’t wait
“Should religion be removed from sex education in Ireland?” - I cannot believe in 2021 we’re even asking that 😂 But here we are. They are literally chalk & cheese. No way in hell should they be even in the same sentence.
Am hungover and fragile. Decided to use up my finite energy to go get McD. Came home with the goods. Opened up my suspiciously light bacon cheeseburger to find only lettuce and mayo inside. No patty. No bacon. Just bread, mayo & lettuce. Think of me during this difficult time.
Seeing people in my own circles start to give in to conspiracy theories, which ultimately emboldens extreme right-wing forces, is just the pits. It’s no longer just crusty weirdos. I don’t know what the answer is, but something needs to be done 😬
Fair play to successful younger people etc. but ‘30 under 30’ type lists have never interested me. I ADORE seeing people in later life explode & get their flowers. I’d say Jennifer’s agent is up the walls with offers and it makes me so happy 🥹
OMG. I bought this (stunning tbh) frame in Vintage Shop in Phibsboro and I opened up the back to find it jammed with gorgeous letters and illustrations. Mostly addressed to Mrs Brophy is 44 Merrion Road, Ballsbridge. I’ve always wanted to find treasure 😍
