@Hot_Pepper76 The wonderful Annie Lennox 💕

Born on 25 December 1954 in Torry, Aberdeen, Scotland, she was encouraged in her artistic interests from a young age. She began singing in school choirs and local bands, while also training in flute, piano, and eurhythmics, a musical movement method. She attended Aberdeen High School for Girls (now Harlaw Academy) and later studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London, though she did not complete her degree. Many people don’t know that she played flute in symphony orchestras and military bands as a teen. She has won four Grammy Awards, including Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for No More "I Love You’s". Do you know who this is?

@Cathal_Dennehy That’s just an amazing account of resilience and will. What a guy. Thanks for that.

A freak accident in 2024 left Ger Copeland with a permanent brain injury, and living with chronic pain. But the Dubliner has since run - and won - marathons as far away as Antarctica. Was he lucky or unlucky? Either way, his story is a remarkable one: m.independent.ie/sport/other-sp…

@CrazyVibes_1 They are so beautiful 🤩 well done young man! In Ireland 🇮🇪 we think you are super talented!!

My son hasn't spoken at school in four months. Complete selective mutism since the kids started calling him "the weird craft boy" who makes things instead of playing sports at recess. He's eleven and autistic, and art class used to be the only place he felt safe until his teacher told him his projects were "too babyish for middle school." He stopped making anything, stopped talking about his ideas, just came home every day and disappeared into his room with the door closed. Last week he was watching me work on snowman decorations for my online shop, these whimsical couples I make and sell for people's holiday mantels. Didn't say anything, just sat on the couch observing while I hot-glued fabric scarves and painted faces. Then two days ago I came home from work and found him in the garage surrounded by foam balls and fabric scraps he'd pulled from my supply bins, hands covered in paint, completely absorbed in creating these two figures. He'd been working for six hours straight without stopping, something he hasn't done since his teacher destroyed his confidence. He made himself and his little sister. The boy snowman has the same serious expression my son gets when he's concentrating, the same careful attention to detail in every button and hat decoration. The girl snowman is wearing pink because that's all his sister will wear lately, has flowers on her scarf because she picks dandelions for him every day after school. This is his first complete project since September, the first thing he's made that wasn't for a grade or an assignment, just pure creation because he wanted to express something he couldn't say with words. When he finished he asked if people would think they were stupid, if kids at school would make fun of them like they make fun of everything else he makes. I told him they were incredible and he needed to see that I wasn't just saying it because I'm his mom. He finally agreed to let me post this after two days of me begging, but he's been refreshing my phone every ten minutes checking for comments, needing to know if anyone besides me thinks he's talented. I buy a lot of my supplies from other crafters online, and I keep showing him their work trying to prove that handmade art matters, that people value things made with this much heart and skill. So what do you think? He's reading over my shoulder right now, hands still shaking slightly, waiting to see if anyone else sees what I see. Credit - Katie Thomson

@philipnolan1 Nothing. Thoughts and memories of my own experience on seeing your predicament, badly put together on my part, no doubt. Apologies, not as erudite as most on this medium.

@Drizzielee I don't know what that has to do with a ruptured hose to the boiler...

Do everything in your power never to have an oil spill in the back garden... 🙄

@mcculld @Gill_Books Congratulations on your book, I’ll look forward to reading it 😊 fair play to you for posting on this particular medium, full of nasties ..

@RTELateLateShow This really was not an enjoyable LLS. At All. Even Kielty could see it

Emma Doran on motherhood and “the looming ride” 👀🤣🤣 #LateLate

@OasisArchives @oasis Slane Castle 🏰 .. too late though. Ireland’s home of rock and roll 🎸 been sold out from under us. Where ever it is .. I’m there 👍

Where would you like to see Oasis play in 2026 ?

@conor_pope I’m delighted. Concert 2026 budget already under pressure thanks to proper rock and roll 🎸… don’t have to endure @TicketmasterIre rinsing even more of my hard earned next week !!

The Slane 2026 headliner has just been announced. It is, drum roll please, Luke Combs. I am sure there are many people who will be delighted by this news.

Do these people ever stop eating ? 🍔🎂🤣🤣 #TraitorsIRL#TraitorsIreland

@conorsclips @RareIrishStuff Brilliant 🤣 loved that place, back when the arteries were free spirited…

@RareIrishStuff There was a queue one night as they were short in the kitchen so I offered to cook as I used to be a chef and was relatively sober … ish. May took me up on that and I cooked through to daylight. Never had to queue again.

Manhattan… the greasy spoon cafe at Kelly’s Corner that only opened after midnight, feeding Dublin’s nightlife. It closed around 2009. Anyone have memories of this place?

@EPfestival Pity ye wouldn’t actually be blown away, taking your so called loyalty codes with ye. They were nothing but a liability this morning

@EPfestival Live 8km from Stradbally, been to every EP since 2005,tickets paid in full,no resident freebie. The one whose commute is doubled in the 2 weeks prior, who wifi is in shite for a month, can’t park at SuperValu or doctors or chemist etc. so called loyalty tickets are load of shite

WOW!✨ We’re blown away! 🤭 Just like that, Electric Picnic 2026 is COMPLETELY sold out! 🥳✨

If you managed to secure a golden ticket, we’ll see you in Stradbally next year! 🎪✨ We can’t wait to do it with you all again! 🥰🫶 #ep #ep26

@EPfestival want to pay their money and enjoy the damn thing as it’s on their doorstep. Fuckers

@EPfestival @EPFestival are a self serving shower with zero interest in showing loyalty. They are pandered to by a crowd of local bandwagon jumpers under the guise of looking after the residents, with no interest in the wider catchment who use the town as their nearest amenity, who just want

@MccallCarole @BrianHayes757 @nilslofgren @azsweetheart013 @springsteen Me too, he was immense that night

@BrianHayes757 @nilslofgren @azsweetheart013 @springsteen I was there! He blew the place apart! Magical 💯

Happy Birthday to the loviest and most fearsome 🎸 player, Nils Lofgren. Here he was in Anfield Liverpool 4th June, “where it all began”, absolutely burning the house down with Youngstown. Watch till the very end 👀 👏 🎂 @nilslofgren @azsweetheart013 @springsteen

@WiffenDaniel @stpatsarmagh Good on you ! That’s a great thing about thing to do .. 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻

Proud to donate my full £25,000 Olympic Legacy fund to @stpatsarmagh – the school that believed in me from the start. The new gym will support the next generation of Armagh athletes. Legacy isn’t just about medals – it’s about giving back. 🏫💪 #LegacyOfParis #Armagh #Paris2024

@conor_pope There is a crack on the screen of my Chinese made phone and I don’t see the “absolutely, no question” option ….

Would you consider swapping products made in the US for ones made elsewhere as a result of the tariff regime proposed by US President Donald Trump
