Doing the rounds on social media, it shows CCTV coverage of the Garda operation in shutting down of the sheeben in Swords. Some amount of Garda cars for a bunch of lads? I’m in no way agreeing with the action of the illegal pub, but, Christ On A Bike, did they really new that many Garda?

Anyone?/FIGHT!

Just to let you know, in case it is of any interest to yiz, I’m at it again – Every Tuesday during the dreaded lockdown I will be posting draw-along videos for the entertainment and amusement of kids of all ages.

This afternoon.

Via Variety:

Music legends Van Morrison and Eric Clapton have announced a new single, “Stand and Deliver,” in support of Morrison’s Save Live Music campaign. The blues track was written by Morrison and is performed by Clapton

Proceeds from “Stand and Deliver” will go to the Morrison’s Lockdown Financial Hardship Fund, which helps musicians facing difficulties as a result of the coronavirus and resulting lockdown measures

Clapton — the only three-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — called the dearth of live events due to lockdown restrictions “deeply upsetting.”
