One of my favourite towns in Ireland

It's still only May and there are only 7 All Ireland Senior Hurling Championship games left for the 2026 season in Liam McCarthy. Something not right about that.

I just got back from a gorgeous Bank Holiday weekend in Liverpool. My nine-year-old was determined to watch Mo Salah’s final game there. The city was beautiful in the shimmering heat: slate roofs like mirrors, red brick pulsing brightly, people infectiously happy in shorts with white legs poking out. The air smelt of salt, suncream and lager. It was impossible not to be cheerful. Here is an observation which I can’t back up, but which I know in my bones to be true. Liverpool, Glasgow and Belfast resemble each other more than they do any other English, Scottish or Irish towns. You can shoot me down easily enough. I have never lived in any of them, though I have family roots in all three. Still, I feel it every time I visit. It’s not ghost of old industries or old ports, nor the similarities of architecture, nor the past sectarian divisions. It’s more a sense of identity, a terse humour, a wry look that is place-specific. I wish I could describe it more convincingly. But if you have spent time in all three cities, you will surely understand.

Yes, Athens has the ancient monuments and amazing museums, but although it isn't a beautiful city, it has an incredible urban energy and vibe that comes from population density, public transport and walkable streets. I had such a great time here and would love to return! 🤩

I’m saying it for years closing the rail line to Youghal was crazy. Once summer comes people want to use public transport to go the beach 🏖️

Final Monday morning in France 🇫🇷 and our last move before getting the Ferry home ⛴️ on Thursday. Heading up to lower Normandy and 3 days by the coast. Just to unwind after what's been an epic and eventful 2 months 🙏 Thanks for your company on the road 🌞😎📸🇮🇪🇫🇷🥰

If ever you visit the beautiful town of Warrenpoint in Ireland & fancy a good breakfast I can’t recommend @churchlanecafe enough. Great & I mean great food ( vege breakfast burrito amazing ) really friendly staff & cool music. I heard @thecure @fontainesdublin & Royel Otis 👍😉

@Cpood50 @dublin_damo Fabulous town. One of the best towns in the country

@dublin_damo We're at the Warrenpoint Blues Festival, the weather was amazing as were the bands and locals, great town.

Why can't it be like this more often?

Augsburg is one of Germany’s most underrated old cities. Roman roots, Renaissance courtyards, medieval streets, and the world’s oldest social housing complex make it feel like a place hiding in plain sight.

It's miraculous nobody was killed in this south Belfast crash earlier today.

Memories from your school days when you got a four colour biro

Long Sands, Tynemouth, on Bank Holiday Monday (May). Looks like it did during the 60's!
