My goodness, extraordinary moment of peace brought by @countrywide on RtÉ radio 1 - wonderful recording of animals enjoying Spring & some poetry í am going to try to track down. Will post it here if I can figure out how to do it. Good work by Philip Boucher Hayes & team!!

I don’t care what your gender is or whether it’s the same one you were assigned with at birth. I care about whether you are a good person, kind to people, the environment & animals. 🌈

Have you emailed your TD yet? 📨 Fossil fuels are driving a major health crisis—killing more people globally than smoking. It’s time Ireland became the first country to ban fossil fuel ads and sponsorship.

Eirí na gréine BÀC 7 - here’s a north inner city jewel in this morning’s mystical sunrise

I steer clear of politics but the message in this article strikes a chord for this blow-in to the northside. No-one polishes the gems in this part of the city, it is a terrible shame

🌱 Proud to feature in this piece on behalf of @irishdocsenv.bsky.social on the #WorldHealthDay.

Well, Spring is truly here. Especially in the tunnel. The first asparagus pushing through...

If you live near stamullen County Meath and you want some sunflower seeds I have a few (hundred) to spare. Now is the time to plant them indoors to plant out after the last frost. 🌱 #spéirgorm

Big day for police reform in Ireland tomorrow (2nd April 2025) with the coming into existence of the Garda Síochána Board, Policing & Community Safety Authority, National Office for Community Safety, Fiosrú (new Police Ombudsman), and Independent Examiner of Security Legislation - finally..

Also, there can be some misconceptions around gaelscolaíocht agus páistí de chúlra inimircigh. I think people often forget, esp if you've grown up here, that you're coming to the language in a similar context to most other pupils in the school as they may not have Irish at home.
