Adulthood is just going to the shop for food and then hearing your kids say there's nothing in the house, every day until you die

@DanieleTRST @stats_feed True...but if the kebab shop is the most common, then I suppose Turkish cuisine is the most popular. Although I still assert that Japanese is the most popular among Italians... interesting...

@HugoMcCafferty @stats_feed Exactly, but how did they do this stats? I suspect they just counted the restaurant. Turkish kebab takeaway shops are likely the most abundant.

@yaelbt So this is a story about how Hamas hostage takers allowed their victim to keep a pet with them. Pity IDF would never allow the same for their victims : (

This is the amazing story of Bella, the pup that was “smuggled” into Gaza. When Hamas terrorists kidnapped 17-year-old Mia with her mother, aunt, and uncle; she wrapped Bella in a blanket and held her close to her chest. Hours later, the terrorists realized it was a dog and not a doll, and an argument started, but Mia would not back down and they let her stay. For 53 day, they captives split their small food rations with Bella. On her way back to Israel, Hamas once again tried to take Bella, and once again Mia was not having it, as you can see in this photo. Mia, her mother, her aunt, and Bella survived. Her uncle is still held by Hamas.

Work everywhere, all the time!

Looking for Dublin restaurant recommendations that are open on a Monday night? Are there any left? #Dublin #restaurants

Wow... Halloween with the Gards on strike? Think I might book a flight, Dublin will go Full Mad Max.

it was an honour and a privilege to sit on the jury for the #Couscousfest Cous Cous World Championships in beautiful San Vito lo Capo, Sicily. Thanks also to @Feedback_adv  for the invite and for making it all happen.

While I hate to see a great rugby nation like @wallabies suffer like this. I can't say I have any sympathy for Eddie Jones. Aus need to ditch him and invest in a young, ambitious Australian manager to save the game, not only down under, but in general...

@JoeNaConnacht Très-Fucking-Bien

Definitely worth a watch, Ronan O’Gara giving the most Irish team talk while actually speaking French. #rugby
