Today we will deal with matters closer to home and of more significant importance. I live on a little estate of ten houses and I have written about it with much tenderness in a previous blog Small Town Ireland on 7 January 2010. It was the subject of Planning Approval […]
Ireland
Old Monkey Face.
In an idle moment yesterday, I thought I would dig a little deeper into the ways of Pierse & Fitzgibbon, Solicitors, Main Street, Listowel, Co. Kerry, because if there is any dirt flying around, I am sure the Road Transport Authority would like to know who they are employing. (See […]

Furtive Happenings
Things seem to be happening in this Holy, Catholic and Apostolic church of ours after the Roman visits of last week. 1. The Council of Priests of the Dublin Diocese are meeting tomorrow. It is understood that Diarmuid Martin fresh from that visit will be present, as well as Bishops […]

I am still reeling from the mental onslaught I have been through these past few days and my piece yesterday confirms to me the power a blog has. A power that has to be carefully and considerately handled to enable the readers not to have to spring up from their […]
