Ruffling feathers
In all things, I’m a fastidious creature. I like everything in its place and the po on the dresser. In a world where near enough is considered good enough, I maintain that precision is not pedantry, and

Things that make you go ugh!
Considering my exceedingly high standards, lifelong pursuit of perfection, and the fact that my childhood nickname at home was “Prim and Proper,” it should come as no surprise that there are a myriad of

Does the Pope wear white socks?
If there were a disaster and I could save one family member or twenty strangers, of course, I’d save the family member. But here’s the dilemma: I have two. How could I choose? Easy! I’d save the skinny

The drugs don't work.
As those of you riveted by the minutiae of my life will recall, I’ve always been self-employed, which means the working week was seven days long, including New Year’s Day, Christmas Day, and every day

Outstanding.
I’ve always believed that the majority is usually wrong, so whatever everyone else is doing, I instinctively do the opposite. This has served me very well in business. When I started a legal services company

Walk Don't Walk
Though we rarely venture beyond the compound, today we planned a little outing, a walk around one of the two dairy farms that supply us with raw milk. The weather however had other ideas. Storm Amy is

After nine long years of weeping and gnashing of teeth since construction began in 2016, Dublin’s spanking new children’s hospital is finally set to open its doors in June 2026. With a price tag of €2.24

Behave!
It’s often said that the world is overpopulated. I don’t believe it. The real problem is that most people take up too much space. Let’s face it, half of you eat enough for two and occupy double the space

Gormless.
As none of you will remember, I posted a riveting exposé last year on the Irish Government’s €336,000 parliamentary bike shed. Well, forget that... (I know, I know, you already have) because there’s worse!

The path less trodden.
By nature, I’m a contrarian. Rules and regulations? Little use for them. They’re for other people. Of course, if a door says push, I don’t go around pulling. That'd just be silly. But recently, out walking

Growing pains.
It’s been a tough growing season, I’ll not deny it. Between relentless raids by marauding chickens, a stretch of unusually hot, dry weather and a non-stop battle with mildew, I’m almost at the point of

What the Dickens?
I’d call myself a hoptimist…I hop between optimism and pessimism. By nature, I lean toward the sunny side and have never taken out an insurance policy on anything. But a long and eventful life has shown
