Aren’t you great.

I’ve launched a new range of greeting cards for Irish people to properly express themselves I thought you might like them… though, in fairness.

Reports of a person with a big sieve around Portobello Harbour are unconfirmed…But I can confirm the Grand Canal at Portobello Harbour (Dublin), is looking much better. Three full skip-type bags remain at the side of the canal and the big blue pipe is gone. Yay.

He [Tom Murphy] is the artist most of us Irish writers look to for inspiration and example. Thus, it will be fascinating to see three of his plays directed by {Garry] Hynes at the Lincoln Center Festival, July 5 to 14. The plays deal with loss and emigration, and dramatize illusion and self-delusion. Hynes’s method as a director is forensic: she strips away, using her sharp sense of the abiding power of the theatrical image, cajoling actors toward the emotional and intellectual core of a play. In the past, Hynes and Murphy together have produced the very best of Irish theater. Re-united, they are likely to cause sparks to fly.

An old pal of mine was out with one of his colleagues and their respective kids at the weekend when they ran into Jedward. As my pal says; “The other guy has a 7-year-old called Lana, he only asked for an autograph and got this (below) from the boys!”
