@UnrealBluegrass @MollyJongFast @1goodtern 'It'll be the greatest bowel movement ever seen...'

@MollyJongFast @1goodtern He's thinking of his bowels.

How would that even work

Very tough for the Delany family. May she rest in peace with her husband🙏

Second fave: When he was born, Chuck Norris drove his mother home from the hospital.

@Cathal_Dennehy Very smooth.

Smooth as it gets, Mark English marches on to the world indoor semi-final after winning his heat in 1:46.42. He has yet to make a global final, but it's very much within reach.

@irishathletics Class run. Well done Mark!

Three-time Olympian Mark English is set for action in the Men’s 800m heats🔥 With multiple national titles and records under his belt, Mark is set to chase more glory this morning.

@ZoeConwayfiddle That's wonderful Zoë

Got a bit of a shock this week when my daughter told me she was studying me as part of her music exam for the junior cycle 🤣 My music has been on the curriculum for 15 years+ as part of the Irish music course, but somehow I never expected my children to be learning about me!! 🤯

@JamJarJail @Feargal_Sharkey Wow!

@Feargal_Sharkey Ireland is recognized as the only country in the world whose population remains lower than it was in 1800.

It's incredible to think about it. The Famine was 174 years ago and the population of Ireland still hasn't recovered from it.

@gregallenRTE Very encouraging. Well done Bori.

Solid 3rd place for Bori Akinola in his 60m heat at World Indoors in 6.59. Was ranked 3rd going in so very solid run with the carrot of a sub-6.60 in a morning heat. Says he’s satisfied and it buries a not great experience at European Indoors a year ago. Semi final this evening.

A Cork Safety Alerts follower has reported spotting Hemlock Water Dropwort washed up on Front Strand beach in Youghal yesterday, Wednesday 18 March. A previous sighting was also reported at Mall beach in the town. This is one of Europe’s most toxic plants. Do not touch it and keep children and pets well away. If you or your pet have had any contact with it, seek medical or veterinary attention immediately.

@CarlowWeather Just not good enough. It's like they get a boot up the arse in winter and hibernate in summer.

Another 10 years for a flood warning system! This is a system that was announced 10 years ago. They spent just €5.9m out of an allocation of €19.3m on the system between 2020 and 2024. No new rainfall stations on mountains and no extra river level sensors. What is the delay??

@nr147 Still doing magical things. What a legend.

The best ever and the best there ever will be. Snooker fans I hope you’ve cherished him over the years in the joy he’s brought to millions over 4 decades

@TrackAthletesie Brilliant

6.59 for Akinola; he's through to this evening's semi-final!

@martylyricfm Well done Demi.

Our colleague Demi is an ambassador for Daffodil day. Good for her.

@AlisonMoyet Wow. I think Judy would love ya too.

So. Yeah. Anyway. Ancestry says Judy Garland is my 8th half cousin. Rain on that parade, ghoul demons.

@AdamJSchwarz Just another day in Trumpton

Japanese PM Sanae Takaichi's reaction as Trump says "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Habour?" Undoubtedly the worst American diplomatic gaffe in post-war US-Japan history.

Reporter: Why didn't you notify Japan that you were going to attack Iran? Trump next to the Japanese PM: "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Habour? You believe in surprise I think much more so than us."

@johncreedon @KhakiKid @RTERadio1 @RTE_Culture @rte @IrishMusicOtt Very talented guy

Two from Khakikid in the music mix tonight rte.ie/johncreedon.

@THERussellGrant All the very best

Big brain tumour day today. Tests and scans … 🙏🏼
