@gunsnrosesgirl3 How did they even lose his wife?

After losing his wife, the man's children adopted a shelter dog to provide him with companionship.

Congratulations to Dr Michael Potterton (Teaching Award) and Dr Ciarán Reilly (Public Engagement with the MU Library) who received awards at the MU Presidents Awards ceremony in MU on Friday last.

IRISH TWITTER. With the bike shelter fiasco currently ongoing, I'm trying to compile some other great overspends in recent Irish history; the Children's Hospital, the millennium clock, the Dail printer and those air-purifying robo-trees in Cork. Tell me what I'm missing!

@DanielHussey2 ‘Arra sure I was just nipping down to the shops in the boat and I decided to race these fellas’! But seriously, if Covid hadn’t happened there’d probably be even more medals here!

@rtenews Harmless … unless you’re plankton!

Take a minute to enjoy this stunning drone footage of basking sharks swimming metres away from the shore in County Mayo. The footage of these harmless giants was captured by Shane Clarke near the village of Kilcummin last weekend.

We got pretty excited in the Lego shop Dublin today to see a Medieval Town Square as part of the Icons range! For those wanting to find out more about (the lack of) towns in medieval Ireland listen to our podcast episode w/@micksmessages of @MaynoothUni! open.spotify.com/episode/4UFn6V…
