New British prime Minister Boris Johnson at Number 10 Downing Street yesterday

As Johnson appoints his new crew
The Irish all fear if it’s true
We’ll be sent by Patel
To Connaught or Hell
Or else starve, so what else can we do?

The Delines

The Delines make their third visit to these shores this year on October 23 when they play Whelan’s of Wexford Street in Dublin.

Moving on from his beloved country-rock ensemble Richmond Fontaine, Oregon-based songwriter Willy Vlautin (top second right) has assembled another wonderful set of musicians for his current band, who touch all bases between country, jazz and soul.

We are truly honoured to have singer Amy Boone (second left) back among us. And it will be great to welcome back Willy too; he couldn’t make their shows in Kilkenny in Spring as he was shortlisted for the prestigious PEN/Faulkner award in America for his novel Don’t Skip Out On Me. Not a bad sideline to have!

The show in Whelan’s will feature material from The Delines’ two excellent albums Colfax and The Imperial. Above Video is just a taster.

To be in with a chance to win 2 tickets, simply tell us below what your favourite show in Whelan’s was down all the days.

Lines remain open until 8am

Nick says: good luck.

RTÉ can reveal that one of the owners of the Hyde & Seek Childcare crèche chain in Dublin, Anne Davy, is to step down and take no future role in front line childcare provision as a result of findings to be revealed in an RTÉ Investigates documentary.

The programme to be broadcast tonight, went undercover to look at standards of care in the company…RTÉ had two undercover researchers successfully apply for childcare positions with the Hyde & Seek company….

Gulp.

RTÉ Investigates: Crèches, Behind Closed Doors at 9.35pm on RTÉ One.

We were bold.

But we were happy.
