Anyone else have an issue with @ryanair booking a uk flight where it is adding on the UK APD for the child. (Initally it discounts it but then adds it back before payment) Booking return from Ireland in Euros. Same bug on app and website.

@RonanLTynan @olivercallan Bosco keeping the head below lid level for the hour.

Fascinating interview with Eamon Dunphy by @olivercallan with the former describing Roddy Doyle as “a tame writer” and is “Official Ireland’s man”. On former President Mary Robinson was quite dismissive describing her “Mná na hÉireann” as “b***s**t”! She is the “definition of Official Ireland” he said and her role as an “elder” he dismissed as “posturing”. As controversial as ever….? Still consistent too working hard at being Official Ireland’s pain in the a**e? Tho ironically being attacked by him is beginning to look like a compliment? @Dunphy_Official @OliverCallanRTE
Finally complimented Oliver on his radio show but with a minor sting as “slightly” Official Ireland. I hope I got that right Oliver?

@hayke02 The joke was about the already named lorry. Wasn't even a good joke in fairness. But now I have Keith-splain in my vocabulary, so it's a net win. Thanks, Keith. Happy Sunday to you!

@AShinyOConnor How did I explain/mansplain your joke to you? Pointing out that Kate Winslet already has a recycling lorry named after her, is not explaining the joke. Or do I have to mansplain what mansplaining is?

What will become of the last Georgian house on O'Connell Street? 42 Upper O'Connell Street is the last house standing from the original 1750s development, a unique and culturally irreplaceable structure, writes Joe Rodgers @DCUHist_Geog @DCU rte.ie/brainstorm/202…

@g__j Please help with our Octopus smart meter over charging. Raised complaints to Ocotopus over years and nothing is being done, and this is causing us ongoing stress.

@shockproofbeats I spelled my name phonetically (Ash-ling) in my email signature at work to clear up a lot of earnest confusion. My personal favourite was people coming into the office asking to speak with 'a Mr OR Ms O'Connor'.

The arrival of new baby cousin, Sadhbh, has my English children struggling with Irish names. A teachable moment for them, and maybe you, in this week's column.
