Anyone know where you can get a curtain rail for a bay window? It’d be easier to find someone to cooper a barrel.

Out of curiosity - it it me, or is it unusual for a hotel that claims four stars to close its kitchen at 7.45 on a Friday night and have absolutely no other food of any kind whatsoever for guests?

In response to the reaction to my views on Ulysses what I expressed earlier - to be clear;

Friel - Genius
O’Casey - unparalleled
Yeats - oddball, but phenomenal poet
Becket - has his moments (prime amongst them dropping Andre The Giant to school.)
Joyce - pretentious dipstick.

On the eve of Bloomsday, I think we should take a moment to acknowledge that Ulysses is (like Finnegan’s Wake, but unlike Dubliners) a terrible book.

And if you think it’s shite, it’s not that you are uneducated, don’t understand it and lack intellectual subtlety.

It’s just shite.

Watching the Bono doc.

It’s brilliant.

Time we dumped the cynicism and put him on the same shelf as Beckett and Joyce.

Thanks David, great to have you on the show. The book is excellent, enjoyed it immensely (while also being terrified).

One of the few specifics in Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson’s hatchet job on Biden. And this one relates to videos in the public domain - not at all as described in the book. Raises questions about the accuracy of what they assert happened behind closed doors as told by un-named sources.

Woeful stuff.

Standing on College Green listening to a tour guide tell people how the House of Lords was owned by Anglo Irish Bank ‘until it went bankrupt in 2008’ then the building was bought by Bank of Ireland.

A+ for creativity.

Who knew the entire population of Northern Ireland moves to Carlingford for Easter Weekend. Queues at the pubs at 11.30 am, like waiting for concert tickets.

Joe Rogan’s commitment to facts continues - ‘57-year-old jacked dudes like me didn’t exist 30 years ago.’

1974, the VERY jacked Jack Lenane celebrates his 60th birthday by towing an open boat from Alcatraz to San Francisco. While handcuffed.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

Feeling tremendously mature. Going to grow a large white beard and buy a flip-front helmet to eat Werther’s Original on the move.

Two episodes into Adolescence because so many people told me it was WONDERFUL.

I assume WONDERFUL happens in episode 3, cos no sign of it so far.

Surprisingly common problem- the recently dead failing to notify the authorities of their status.
