Today, we bought a smoothie maker, and much hilarity ensued. Here is how to make one, Collison style: Frozen fruit, only 2€ per packet from Dunnes Stores. Why struggle with fresh fruit when you’re going to be eating it cold anyway? Next, natural yoghurt. That squiggle on my hand was testing whether a pen works. [...]
Yes, we’re just like An Post, and Royal Mail. I’ve come to notice that Sundays are usually bad days when it comes to the internet – there are less people online and more people outside doing real-life stuff. Good on them. In light of this, I’ve decided to slightly alter posting – since I’m a [...]
Ryan Tubridy’s Late Late Toy Show I thoroughly enjoyed this. Tubs is full of win – may more energetic than Kenny ever was; and connects with the kids perfectly. JEdward didn’t sing so I still don’t know what they sound like. Probably for the best, right?
I’d like to share with you a couple of invaluable tools that I use in the course of my writings. 1. Jazz Biscuit’s CC Search link Jazz Biscuit is a site that searches Flickr’s (one the biggest image hosting websites out there) CC photos. CC stands for Creative Commons, and refers to photos that the [...]
So, as well as the strikes on Tuesday, the other great topic of conversation is the torrential rain that we’ve been having. It has led to floods, which are awesome – as long as it’s not your house. I mean, it’s lovely to watch all the bad things happening because of it when you’re wrapped [...]

The reason for my going to Boston was of course because I wanted the visit my brothers. The reason I went when I did, however, as opposed to any other week, was because in nearby (a mere 58 miles away) Providence, Rhode Island, RENT, the Broadway Tour was performing. I’d fallen in with RENT over [...]
Yup, I’m back in Limerick – sitting at the kitchen table and looking out at the Irish weather. It met me off the plane last night too. There was a palpable sense of ‘ooh, plane landed! start raining!’ in the air this morning. My body clock is pretty screwed because I arrived home and went [...]
Anthony Rapp (Mark Cohen in RENT, the show I was at last night) and I at the stage door of the theatre last night.
There will be a RENT post going up, but I don’t have the photos (Patrick took them, and I’m not meeting him until later). Needless to say it was completely awesome. For now, I’d like to share with you the reason I was so annoyed at being in America this weekend; missing the floods:
