Results of Ireland’s highly watched bond auction are out, and the news is double-edged.
Yes, Ireland did get €1bn of 2018 and €500m of 2014 bonds sold, but the country had to pay handsomely to get the debt away. The yield on the 2018 issue came in at an average 6.023 per cent, while the average on the 2014 issue was 4.767 per cent.

This does not bode well.

New film censor Ger Connolly has banned the DVD re-release of 1978’s video nasty, ‘I Spit On Your Grave’.

For its depiction of “acts of gross violence and cruelty towards humans”.

He used to be an accountant.

Dear Sir,

I am searching for a column by Conor Lenihan that appeared in your newspaper last week. It was a passionate defence of Mr Cowen and a rather ungentlemanly attack on Ursula Halligan.
It seems to have disappeared from your excellent online edition.

I need it to ascertain if it is the same Conor Lenihan currently skulking around Leinster House like Richard III.

Keep up the good work. More Wesanna and vicious criminals please!
