At choir practice the other week we started a new song that began with a long solo part. One quiet woman sang it A MAZ ING LY. Big heartfelt round of applause from everybody.

Good stuff

What was the song?

they shoulda brough tubs in for that one. kielty gets the humour

 

[Cormcolash]

Kielty probably knows he can basically do anything on that show right now and there'll be nobody to have a go at him because of the bigger RTE shit show of the day. Anyway he's sound.

Do people get stick for wearing Ukrainian shit on RTE?

RTÉ says Kneecap agreed not to wear pro-Palestine badges on The Late Late, but did anyway

The group also appealed to Irish people to ‘show solidarity with Palestine’.

RTE Late Late Show viewers praise Ryan Tubridy after emotional Ukraine speech

Opening without the usual titles, we instead saw Ryan directly address the cameras and a piece highlighting the conflict

Played a few songs at the local open mic over the weekend,

A half an hour snooze in the car during lunch break and now a strong coffee to perk me up.

Apropos to nothing, I found out today that donkeys and horses have actual passport books. Plus the pages get stamped "out to stud"... which delights me for some reason. I think of the stamp maker and just grin.

 

[Kermit McDermott]

Donkey's also use listerine as well. I find that very hard to believe.
