A Drop Of Irish

Looking forward to chatting #poitín with Dave Mulligan of @BanPoitin this morning. Going to be a cracker. @micildistillery @KillowenWhiskey wsetglobal.com/news-events/ev…

On the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, remembering the vital role of the much-missed Mo Mowlam. The contribution she and other women made to the peace process is too often overlooked. We won’t forget. ♥️

@Jbeardmore @chrisbrodie12 @David_SportX Compare the attitude in this clip and across the season of world player of the year vs last years man.

@Jbeardmore @chrisbrodie12 @David_SportX Enjoy most of your content JB, but I think your take on this one doesn’t do any favours. This Sarries shithouse attitude is part of what has steadily undermined the English game at club and country level for years now. Remember when the ABs brougth in the No Dickheads rule…

Raise your glass of #blended #scotch at 4pm today! I'm very lucky to be joined by Craig Wallace, Master Blender at @Diageo, the wonderfully knowledgeable @KristianeSherry and Duncan McRae from @houseofwoven #whisky #wset wsetglobal.com/news-events/ev…

@CoachAads @SquidgeRugby Qatar’s dictatorship is free to impose their oppressive laws. That’s their business. @URCOfficial is free to choose which sponsors to legitimise. That’s their business. We are free to express disgust at @MartinAnayi for this disgusting deal. That’s our business. #sportswashing

Just to say: If the URC do create this pre-season 7s tournament in Qatar, Leinster wouldn't be able to pick Nick McCarthy else he faces 7 years in prison.

@Damian_Barr And make room for Suella Deville 😱

Nadine Dorris has resigned as Culture Secretary in order to return to her writing career.

@IrishDistillers Amazing vision. Always ahead of the curve. Any details on the expanded capacity / number of stills?

We’re proud to announce a €250 million investment plan for a new distillery in Midleton. This will deliver a state-of-the-art distillery which is expected to be operational in 2025. Read more here irishdistillers.ie/irish-distille…

@dunney_john @TadhgHickey It’s a pretty succinct encapsulation of that particular relationship dynamic.

@TadhgHickey This is brilliant. The prods trying to jump on the bandwagon and the nigel farages throwing them right back off it. Jamie, Charlie in tears😁😁😁😁

Twitter's peaked.

@whiskycast @TaylorCope1982 Ps I absolute your podcasts Mark. No hate, just a different perspective.

@TaylorCope1982 Plastic tubs and bubble wrap for each bottle.

OK Whiskey Twitter, I will be moving house and need transport between 50-100 bottles of whiskey. Any suggestions for the best method of packing them?

@whiskycast @TaylorCope1982 That’s a hell of a lot of single use plastic, Mark. Having transported 1000s of assorted bottles over 100s of events in well packed bottle boxes I’ve had 0 breakages. But if you have particularly valuable bottle you want a belt and braces approach for, flexihex is the way to go.

@Microlambert I wouldn’t. But if I had to, whatever route Waze directs me on that day.

QUIZ: You want to drive to the West End from eastern Outer London. Do you drive through a) the borough that forces you to stick to main roads, or b) the borough that lets you drive down any road you want?

@danroan Just imagine the medals @skibbrowing could generate with that level of support 🤯😜

GB Rowing currently gets £24.6m funding from UK Sport, more than any other. Disappointing medal return in Tokyo sure to spark debate, given some sports receive much less. Eg neither men’s mountain biking nor women’s BMX were funded at the start of the Tokyo cycle

@siobhni Wish I could be home in Skibb right now! Enjoy 😁

Yerrah.

@SquidgeRugby @dunta90 Has nobody else notice the lil paunch Taulupe is carrying recently? Front row appropriate gear.

@dunta90 Oh, he's a great player and playing really well. But their other option is Taulupe bloody Faletau.

If you can put Taulupe Faletau in your team, put Taulupe Faletau in your team.

@siobhni Great stuff!

So. I have some exciting news …. channel4.com/press/news/sio…

Looking forward to getting involved in their #whiskywebinar in advance of #worldwhiskyday #whisky #whiskey instagram.com/p/COfmzLTrLKZ/…

Worth a listen from 4pm today

Six great whisky songs? Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks! #whisky #song

A visual argument for vaccines, in five tweets: 1/ A ward of polio victims, incarcerated inside "iron lungs" in 1950s America. Many are children, their lungs paralysed, unable to breathe unaided. Thanks to vaccination, no-one has caught polio in the UK since the 1980s.
