Jesus, I miss Irish radio 🙄, Nothing like an Irish mammy to single handedly have to fix the mistakes of her two (almost) adult daughters. Leave them at it says I!! #liveline

What a wonderful example..
Rhys McClenaghan says "it didn't go my way" after his seventh-place finish in the #olympics pommel horse final but vows that "this is not the end of the journey". #tokyo2020 #RTESport #gymnastics 📱 Report – rte.ie/sport/olympics/2021/0…

Its #DeafblindAwarenessWeek The pandemic has disrupted our lives in so many different ways but for deafblind people the challenges are much greater. People feel disconnected & isolated at a time when they need to be aware of what's happening around them bbc.co.uk/news/uk-57652173

Very sad to hear of the death of Gay Byrne. Hard to explain how huge a presence he was in Ireland for 40+ years; a legendary, instinctual broadcaster; that rarest thing, a gifted listener; and an interviewer of huge emotional intelligence. An enormous life.

This was arguably the most significant social/economic announcement in the history of the new State. The dynamic and patriotic Donogh O’Malley, privately encouraged by Sean Lemass. Nobody in politics, before or after, to equal those two.
This day 53 years ago - 10 September 1966 - Minister for Education Donogh O'Malley announced that “free post-primary education will be available to all families.” In 1999, former Taoiseach John Bruton attributed Ireland's economic success ('Celtic Tiger') to O'Malley's decision.
