So here we go, my 23rd offering, publishing in Ireland and online on Feb 5, all going well. The story of yoga teacher Lydia during the most tumultuous year of her life - I hope it finds favour with my cherished readers. 🙂🙂

Book cover of Roisin Meaney's Second Chances, showing a garden bench with two perching Robins, and a pot plant.

"CATU LOUTH STATEMENT ON LAST NIGHT'S ATTACK IN DROGHEDA

Solidarity with the 28 people burned out of their accommodation in Drogheda last night. You have more in common with an IPAS resident than you do with your landlord. Everyone deserves a safe, secure home. Get organised and stand up to

Listened to Lily Allen’s new album today. Wow she got it all out there, David Harbour you’ve been seen!

Heather Humphries didn’t do the candidates interview on The Last Word and I’d say Matt was well pissed off with him over it.

Martina Morrow @martinamorrow.bsky.social · 1d

Definitely attempted murder! I’ve read somewhere it’s thought fireworks were thrown through a ground floor window beforehand to frighten them and make them run upstairs. If this is the case it’s even worse.

Two things here it was easy to assume because he was a member of Fianna Gael but my biggest question is who in their right mind would get Ivan Yates to coach anyone 🤷‍♀️ no matter what party

Martina Morrow @martinamorrow.bsky.social · 1d

I got mine separately two weeks apart, I bet it’s the flu job that’s knocking you my arm was pretty painful after it.

Martina Morrow @martinamorrow.bsky.social · 2d

Fireworks, it was arson. That’s attempted murder.

Martina Morrow @martinamorrow.bsky.social · 2d

Your in power strengthen the laws on incitement to hatred, anti social behaviour and maybe get our Gardai the resources they need to be able to deal with all this stuff. Riot gear in one place in the country is no good every town needs it.

Right wing dickheads want you afraid of foreign criminals coming in, putting "our women and children" at risk, meanwhile this is what they're doing to women and children

Firefighters rescued five people, including three children under ten, from the top floor of an Ipas centre in Drogheda last night after a major fire.

Gardaí have preserved the scene while the cause of the blaze is investigated.

Confirmed now arson - fireworks thrown into the building - one of the kids in that residence was just two weeks old.

About 30 kids in masks and balaclavas came after council workers and stoned them yesterday morning sent in to take dangerous items from bonfires. Gardai came told the workers to go home. No consequences for small things they get braver!

One of those kids was only 2 weeks old

Martina Morrow @martinamorrow.bsky.social · 2d

The amount of anti social behaviour in Drogheda over the past two months by kids has been disgusting, criminal damage, theft on a daily basis costing thousands. Gardai called each time and basically say there is nothing they can do. If the Gardai do nothing about small stuff these kids get braver.

One of the people evacuated was a 2 week old baby - not proven to be arson yet but strongly suspected. Horrifying, they could have killed them all. All small families in this centre not 1000s of unvetted men like they try to make you believe.

What’s almost as mind boggling is that a crowd of teenagers were out of bed at that time in the rain

Martina Morrow @martinamorrow.bsky.social · 3d

Gardai have absolutely no control over teenagers in Drogheda - it’s totally out of control. Kids in balaclavas stoning workmen at 8am on a Friday morning in the middle of a housing estate. Gardai called tried to negotiate with the kids - sent the workmen off 🤷🏼‍♀️

When Harry decided he no longer wanted to deal with being a royal, they took his security detail from him and his family and stopped paying living expenses and he’s still a Prince… so will we see Andrew on the housing list and ringing the ordinary common state police when he’s being harassed?

I know I’m lucky really and I did get my break last week which is more than a lot of people but I’m struggling a lot at the minute, very overwhelmed with it all.

So many apts the last while back and the biggest stress is getting her into the hospital, week after next we have two different clinic apts different days can’t Co-ordinate them and a gp apt. They don’t make anything easy that’s for sure.
