#journorequest looking to talk to people in Ireland who are huge fans of Christmas. Maybe you start planning at Easter, have presents bought and tree up by November and/or go crazy with decorating. Get in touch if any thoughts. Shares appreciated.

I do this every now and then. This is Domino. He's one of the dogs that has been the longest at the DSPCA. Liz and I brought him out for a walk up to the Hellfire Club recently and he is a sweetheart... What about adopting him? www.dspca.ie/dimo-17590 A share would help too...

Not a fan of delayed gratification. Especially not when it is imposed rather than by choice.
