Want to help Pieta House?
Chewy sez:
Myself and a few friends are organising a big Christmas party in aid of Pieta House this Sunday in Dublin’s Button Factory. It’s a DFA/LCD themed night called All My Friends and we are billing it as a Christmas party for mates. Time to take stock and be thankful for one another and at the same time remember friends who can’t be here. There will be live music from Benny Smiles and Sleep Thieves and a special DFA/LCD set from The Disco Brunch DJs and Colin Perkins. I know a few of your readers have an interest in both Pieta and good gigs so figured you may like this…
€5 donation at the door.
BREAKING: Mario Draghi says the Irish banking sector remains a source of some concern, it needs decisive action
— Tony Connelly (@tconnellyRTE) December 16, 2013
Speaking to a committee of the European Parliament, Mr Draghi warned that the recent balance sheet review, carried out by the Central Bank here, “falls short” of the more stringent test that would be carried out ahead of the ECB assuming the role of overall banking supervisor next year.
He said the exercise carried out by the Central Bank was “not forward looking”.Responding to a question by the Fine Gael MEP Gay Mitchell, a member of the parliament’s economic and monetary affairs committee, Mr Draghi also said the ECB had a “positive, but more cautious,” assessment of the budget for 2014.

Based in Texas in the 1800s, LaraeDó presents to us a young man from the East who has decided to head to the Wild West in search of adventure. That’s exactly what he gets!He finds himself in Fitzies saloon in the town of LaraeDó where he meets LaraeDó’s greedy rancher, preacher, wild Indians and saloon girls. Some of them are looking for a fight. Some are looking for romance. All are looking for drinkin’, singin’, and general mayhem …
They’d have found that down at the bottom of Quay street any night, in fairness..
As expected London Irish have confirmed the takeover of the club by a consortium of Irish businessmen with a commitment of substantial funds
