In a local pub in West Dublin last night and a pint of Guinness was €6.10. Barman told me they'll be €6.40 from Wednesday. WTF? How long more do we just roll over and accept this? A pint of San Miguel in Spain last week was €2.60

Ryan told the court how they met, their plans for each other, but described Ireland as "not safe anymore". "How can someone come to his country, get social housing, social welfare, not hold down a job of any description and never contribute to society for 10 years?

"10 years???", he added. "This is not the country that Ashling and I grew up in and once loved." In a half hour address to packed court, he described Puska as "the lowest of the low, a waste of space", calling her murder "horrific and senseless."

Mr Justice Hunt says in all his years he doesn't think he's ever heard victim impact evidence "so impactful". He said judges should have a say in minimum sentencing and would consider a whole life order, like they have in the UK, if it was open to him.

Just to clarify, couldn't care less who goes and who doesn't, who travels where to what gigs - it's travelling when you've already seen her 10 times on this tour. Just an observation but having an opinion is sacrilege on this forum. I will never understand the weirdness of people

They addressed this at the brginning of the show and said they were top of their list to be on but they'vre all gone back to their clubs with games this weekend. Promised they'd be on in a few weeks. So people should get all the facts before going off on one.

Gerrard's closeness to the Byrne family is beyond weird. Ignore the fact that they're a notorious gangland family, but what father to a teenage daughter is as welcoming to the much older chap she's having an intimate relationship, as well as his parents/grandparents/cousins?

First of all they tried to get me to commit to very expensive dental treatment that I clearly don't need. They took a deposit from and then they cancelled the appointment anyway at their end, telling me I've to wait 4 weeks for my money back.

She told me that I don't need root canal at all and it's unlikely I needed the tooth out. The likely cause of the pain was an infection, possibly accentuated by having the cavity jabbed by the Smiles dentist.
