It’s the silly season right?

August 4th, 2007 · 2 Comments · Blogging, Irish Politics, Seanad Eireann

So I’m taking a bit of a break, on my annual pilgrimage to the Dublin Lesbian and Gay Film Festival,  pleasantly forgetting Michael McDowell (who???). 

It’s the silly season, why? Well it can’t be true that we now have Senator Ivor Callelly and Senator Eoghan Harris. I’m only dreaming or too tired from being to 3 movies today on top of a full day’s work.

20 million people in Asia are affected by flooding.

And now England has a case of Foot and Mouth. 

Excuse me while I immerse myself in some rather fine movie making, a bit of cooking and forget about everything else. Red Mum is such wise woman spending a long time in Turkey, taking fab photos (oh to have some spices!) and becoming an internet tech support woman (multi talented is RM). 

Happy Bank Holiday Weekend – only one more of them before Xmas – such tides of great joy I bring ye all!

    Asia? Is that some where in Co Meath? Otherwise it is covered by the (right or wrong) news culture which says something like…

    A two-car crash in Kerry is as important a train crash in the UK, in turn as important as a two-train crash in, say, France. It depends, but the US can be some where in the UK and ‘European’ stories. It’s a downward trend after that. (I’m never good at repeating that story)

    Anyway, with what is possibly at stake, it may sound bad, but frankly I wish foot and mouth waited until after August. No matter how big or small it is, the story is likely to be blown out of proportion. And run on and on, and on.

    Just dropping by to share my cooking blog,
    which might be of use for recipes.

    The Irish food blogosphere has
    really taken off.
