We’re already well into Christmas Eve so it’s definitely time to check out of here for a bit ahead of the big day tomorrow. Hope you all have a great Christmas and get to enjoy some time to relax before the madness begins all over again early in the New Year.
It’s gone midnight and so it’s already Christmas Eve, possibly my favourite day of the whole festive period. With less than 24 hours to go now to the big day itself, it’s definitely time to call a halt to proceedings here and put the feet up for a while. Twelve months ago I noted that the year that was then […]
Photo: Huffingtonpost.com So, once again it’s almost time to bid farewell to the year that was and later on tonight prepare to welcome in the shiny, new one that comes mewling into the world at the stroke of midnight. Out with another year of what might have been, in with one of what might just be. And on we go. […]
After another eventful year for Mayo GAA it’s time once again to shut up the shop, crack open the craft beers and enjoy the festive season. Before signing off, I’d like to thank everyone who stopped by the site this year, whether you were reading, commenting or penning a guest piece. It’s been a truly mental twelve months on the […]
Image: messagequotes.com It’s not yet New Year’s Eve but we’re up and off early in the morning to catch the New Year’s festivities way out west. This, then, is just a brief one to say farewell to the old hag of a year that has a day and a bit left to go as the world and its spouse starts to […]
So once again it’s that time of year when the world falls in love when every song you hear … yes, those little buggers have moved the dial over to Christmas FM again and sure why not, isn’t the Christmas almost here? It is, apparently and so once again it’s time to bring the metaphorical shutters down for another festive […]
Once again, Christmas is almost upon us following another tumultuous #mayogaa year, this one having delivered an All-Ireland title for us. We wanted the big one too, of course, but winning the Tom Markham Cup does mean that we can mark down 2013 as one where we saw some tangible success and, having licked our wounds since September, we’ll soon […]
It’s very close to Christmas Day itself and I meant to post this earlier on but ended up getting way-laid on other stuff. In any event it’s just a quick one to wish everyone all the best for Christmas and to say thanks to all who called around or contributed to the site in some or other fashion over the […]
Mick Donnellan has been in touch to let me know about his play Shortcut to Hallelujah, which the Truman Town Theatre will shortly be bringing to the stage at the Town Hall Theatre in Galway. The play was previously performed in Galway (at the Town Hall Studio) last August, in Ballinrobe (in the Valkenburg) last September and at the Linenhall in […]
It’s the eve of Christmas Eve and the excitement levels here are rising faster than the S&P 500 has done this week. With a bit over 24 hours left before the Ho, Ho, Ho-ing gets go, go, going I can see that it’ll be tough to keep the lid on things around here in the interim. All this domestic excitement […]
