She’s launching a new modelling agency.

To teach a new generation of lovely girls how to hold a snake/oversized-mobile phone/flat jockey, etc. with poise and grace.

Derek ‘Claridge’s’ Quinlan, Nama property developer (he owes €600 mil – half to Anglo), resident of Switzerland and former, cough, splutter, tax inspector, is selling his Shrewsbury Road home. Don’t worry he owns two others.

The Irish Times is, of course, positively drooling:

Quinlan’s house, Derrymore, is in mint condition and extends to about 465sq m(5,005sq ft). Three spacious interconnecting reception rooms lead off the hall, which itself is large enough to accommdate the owner’s Steinway baby grand piano. A double drawingroom has steps leading down to a grand dining room with wall panelling (above) by Queen Elizabeth’s nephew Viscount Linley.

OK. Enough. Where’s that frickin’ cement truck?
