Really good piece to herald return of home matches. The clips of Mechanics Institute (home of Trades Council) and the Dockers Monument worth noting. Apt as the home ground plays an important part in Limerick's labour history. Blue (collar) city. x.com/cheebah/status…

@conorsmurf @simonlewis Good choice, I have that collection from Simon, so will seek out that poem. An interesting contextual companion, perhaps, is Louis Lentin's film where he visits the Kovno Gubernia province, where majority of Cork and Limerick Jewish communities fled from. ifiarchiveplayer.ie/grandpa-speak-…

@simonlewis Thanks. We really appreciate you answering the questions! I've used the poem a few times over the years and students always respond well to it, especially the simplicity of a child sticking their tongue out as a way of finding common ground! I'll show the class this on Monday

@simonlewis My 3rd years are studying your poem "The Zoo". They would like to know why you called it The Zoo, and what your motivation was to write it in the first place. Thanks a million.

Considering Baptiste's year living in Limerick, this is great addition to the city's black history & insight into 18th century Ireland. Real evocative moment is hearing EileenAroon sung in style Rachel would have sung it, in Peters Cell over 250 years ago rte.ie/radio/lyricfm/…

My documentary ‘Black Syren’ is on @RTElyricfm 6pm this eve. This project has been more than work for me. It’s an important piece of untold Irish history that I can’t wait to share. @operapage @IrishBaroque

Limerick was beautiful today! We @ipsc48 were loud and proud for Palestine. We held our ground and our space in the face of the far right. We showed our unbreakable solidarity with our Palestinian sisters and brothers. This city will give no quarter to racism. #FreePalestine

@activedan @TreatyUnitedFC Indeed and always worth remembering that the Markets Field has a special place in both Limerick's radical and Labour History.

Kevin's championing of Limerick scene in particular hip hop has always been loud. Spotlighting Citrus in The Guardian this year was huge but support goes way back. Now on the same stage where some of the scene's best moments of last few years have played out. Apt. Pure Limerick.

While his international book tours tread the familiar path of bookshops & art spaces, 'tis notable that for last decade, I think all of Kevin Barry's hometown appearances have been in music related spaces/events. Good to see that continue. Will be special eventbrite.ie/e/kevin-barry-…

The Stinging Fly continues to play a vital role in discovering & championing new writers. So "Friends of the Fly" very worthy of support. Parochially, Limerick-based writer Paula Dias Garcia @PressSans has memorable short story set in Cratloe Woods, in latest issue. Seek out.

Comment: For more than a century now, we've been told there's no other way to run this country – that Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael were the only "realistic" choices. Another Ireland is possible. A left government is the first step toward achieving it. ontheditch.com/comment-anothe…

@bbboatclub Excellent Reminded of a time, pre internet when a 5-10 minute PA in a club could still generate serious hype for months afterwards. Like a hot July night in London 1990, deep in Camden. Busy Thursday club winding down when En Vogue came & conquered youtu.be/TVBbS8g4oR8?si…

@Ryan_O_R Agree completely. New stories to be told on the banks of the Allaughan. However, your mention of 20 years reminded me of this. 1997, when hundreds of gold hunters descended on Tour and the Evening Echo (then publishing a daily Limerick edition) send out a reporter to cover it.

@DrMartinJPower @TreatyUnitedFC @CorkCityFC Good atmosphere. Unfortunately, probably the last time for a few seasons. I will miss the sweet sounds of "Call yourselves rebels You welcomed the Queen" resounding out and around Garryowen. :-)
