Dundalk punk poet Jinx Lennon does his thing.
Here, Water Meter Man, stop acting like a mole,
Come up and talk to us and stop hiding
Deep inside your hole.

[Portland, Oregon] First solo work from Cork-based John Blek well worth a listen. Also check out his contemporary country and Irish melancholy work with The Rats (my bro’s the drummer).

Saw Bodger’s post earlier with the Aer Corps aerial photos of the snow that fell on this day back in 2010Thought you might like to feature this video I shot and edited of the fresh snowfall around the Dublin Docklands that evening. The music is ‘Wired, Islands’ by the amazing Sacred Animals from Wexford .

Our An Post Christmas TV advert is about how we remember family and friends at Christmas. It highlights the fact that when we make the effort to write and post our Christmas cards, the emotional rewards for both sender and receiver are enormous.
The TV advert features the song ‘The Christmas Waltz’ and was shot in locations around Dublin and Wicklow.
The music track is called ‘The Christmas Waltz’, vocals by Lisa Hannigan and is available to purchase on Bandcamp. All profits raised from the sale of the track will go directly to Simon Community to help tackle homelessness in Ireland.
Now, giant Anglo-Saxon supermarket chains, that’s how you do a Christmas ad.
Update:
Link to Bandcamp is now working. Donate here.
Of his adorable Kickstarter project, Wayne Kearns writes:
Family Time Fables is a series of illustrated children’s books that I initially created for my niece and nephews that cover three of the classic Irish tales: Cú Chulainn, The Salmon of Knowledge and Fionn and the Dragon. I recently produced a print run for family and friends and this campaign is to fund development of the ebook versions, the website and a larger print run of all of the books – if the campaign reaches its target then all paperback book rewards will be shipped on Monday 15th December in time to be given as Christmas gifts.

Rather disappointed with the official Jurassic World trailer, old school Jurassic Park fans and editors Adam Fox and Jared Pelletier offer two alternative versions more in keeping with the spirit of the original.
