The great Leitrim native Seamus O’Rourke, writer, director, actor, poet and independent producer (Big Guerilla Productions) has a chance meeting with “The Beardy Buck in the Long White Gown”. Look out for that “Buck in the Long White Gown”.☻☻ My Uncle’s In The Dáil.
“The Day Leitrim played in Croke Park”, by the award-winning writer, director and actor from County Leitrim, Seamus O’Rourke. In all, Leitrim have played in Croke Park six times during their overall history. At first, we thought it was caused by storm Éowyn, but then we heard that it was possible that proposed notion (or was it motion, whatever), put forward last December, by Fine Gael Tipperary Cllr. Ms Peggy Ryan; latter seeking more short term parking in the centre of Thurles, that had suddenly materialised. ![]() Picture: G. Willoughby. Thankfully, no Latte Coffee drinking pedestrians, normally seated in this general area, were killed or injured and the rate-paying businesses will happily have no problem in paying for the damaged railings. Engineers who came up with the farcical and ill-conceived planning of this area will not be found financially liable. Sadly however our one remaining local Thurles TD (we learned today) will no longer have speaking rights in Dáil Éireann, to ask for an update on funding for the 50 year old awaited ‘Ring Road’, latter the answer to this ongoing demolition problem. However, look on the bright side; one additional benefit has come out of this latest piece of demolition work. Both sides of this junction, entering and exiting unto Liberty Square, are now almost a perfect match, thus greatly enhancing the Thurles town centre. A Visit to Santa.Courtesy Irish comedian and singer, the late great Brendan Grace, (1951–2019); known for his comedy schoolboy character “Bottler”. Born in the heart of Dublin City in 1951, Brendan was raised on Echlin Street, in the Liberties area of the city. His father Seamus worked as a bartender, an ambulance man and other odd jobs, to keep the family going. Like many young Dubliners of that period, Brendan left school young to find work. His first job was as a messenger boy, an occupation he often referred to in his live performances. His wit and observations of daily life in Ireland will long remain. |
