Before getting really stuck in with regards to candidates, campaigns, issues and the like I do want to wish the best to anyone who decides to run in the forthcoming elections and those who support them.  I may not support your causes (a list of those who’ve caught my eye is being made) but I’m glad I live in Ireland, where the voting machines are being recycled, the posters are going up poles or not throughout the country and the canvasses are well underway.

I wish the candidates good weather and safety – a point brought to my notice from FG’s Senator Paschal Donohue’s tweet about being knocked down by a car today – he looked grand on Tonight with Vincent Browne this evening I’m pleased to report.

30 days to go…
