Anyone know why Mark McKenna (Eamon – arrowed and playing ‘The Riddle of The Model’ here) is missing from the [Dublin-based, 1980s set musical comedy drama] Sing Street (2016) poster? Thought he deserved it as he has a prominent role in the film. I left a message on their Facebook page to no avail….

Anyone?

Yesterday at 1pm my elderly aunt’s two dogs were stolen by two males, one with a bike from outside Lidl and the Taphouse, Ranelagh [Dublin 6].  It seems like dog theft is on the rise.

Thankfully one of the dogs was found late last night in Kilmhanham but the older one Mosey (top) who is an 11-year-old, microchipped female Irish Wheaten Terrier, is still missing.

My Aunt would be eternally grateful if your followers could help and highlight the dangers of leaving pets unattended.

Anyone?
