Bré, Co Wicklow, home to a number of Broadsheet contributors and one of the 37 locations where an estimated 80,000 people walked/ran/whatnot for Pieta House’s annual Darkness Into Light hoo ha at the weekend.

Dave Byrne of Bray Tube writes:

“A brief little tribute to all those who either stayed awake or roused themselves early to walk/run 5km around Bray in aid of Pieta House, in the early hours of Saturday morning.”

*Hits snooze button*

Want to be a link in a Guinness world record breaking five mile long chain AND help fund Irish cancer research?

Yes?

The Caroline Foundation in partnership with Bray Cancer Support Centre and Greystones Cancer Support need your help for an exciting world record challenge.

Helen from The Caroline Foundation writes:

A system is being set up involving 100 individual ‘cells’ or groups – hopefully Greystones and Bray residents but also CCRT patients and families. Each cell leader will have responsibility for bringing 40 people to line the route. Each ribbon holder will be asked to donate €10 – that means that each cell will contribute a minimum of € 400.

When?

Sunday, 11 May 2014 starting on Bray seafront.

If you would be interested in setting up a ‘cell’ or joining a ‘cell’ please contact Helen O’Sullivan-Dwyer (helen@thecarolinefoundation.com)

On the seafront proper.

Existential storm guy is existential.

Penny whatnow?

Starring Eva Green, Billie Piper and Josh Hartnett Penny Dreadful will weave together the origins of literary horror characters, such asVictor Frankenstein, Frankenstein’s monster, Dorian Gray, and Count Dracula, as they grapple with their monstrous alienation in Victorian London.

 

Psychosexual horror and monstrous alienation?

Bray is ideal, in fairness.
