Young Miley’s been getting some letters,
From Sinéad, who is one of her betters,
O’Connor asserts,
That instead of short skirts,
She should put on some trousers and sweaters.

My father is currently on medication [prescription medication for high cholesterol, high blood pressure and acid reflux] that in an Irish pharmacy cost him €72.10 for 1 month supply.
He recently went to Newry and bought said medication (same brands) for €52.20 for 6 MONTHS SUPPLY………That’s a saving of €760.80 a year.
€760.80.
What you may need to know:
1. Guests Of Another Nation is a 16mm independent film about the young Irish in London in the 1980s, originally broadcast by RTE back in 1989.
2. Synopsis: ‘Over 27 minutes, it locates various subjects as anything but the successful role models the Irish media at the time was selling as part of a need to be positive about emigration. Arguably far more accurately, it paints the Irish migrant in London more as a lost and lonely outsider driven by something other than economics. The tone is wistful, melancholic, unsettled. A time capsule in whose favour Ireland has once more unfortunately turned.’
3. Made by John Fleming and Mark Stewart. Shot over six short, dark and bloody cold days in December 1987.
4. And only crying out for a sequel.
