Hello from Sunny Tramore. It’s only delightful to see the sun shining through the window when I extract myself from the bed. The small slivers of bright sunshine make that difficult task a bit easier. After a bowl of Flahavan’s finest, it’s on to the laptop for my Friday morning routine of writing this blog.
There’s a spring in the step of the Tramore seagulls this morning. They have heard about the abolition of the inter county travel ban. More people equals more food. Happy days. Hair will get back to normal in two weeks and we will be more beautiful again. Bouncers that worked in pubs could get a
Greetings from Tramore. Another very promising day here. The washing is on the line, the Super League is dead in the water. Jose Mourinho is gone from Spurs. Another big payoff! I only found out about that on Tuesday night given the furore over the Super League. Greed and avarice took hold of the 12
It’s a balmy 9 degrees in Tramore but plenty of Sunshine and a 1% chance of rain. If it rains today, I will be getting onto the developers of that free app on my phone! Not quite break out the cider and soak up the rays in the back garden yet, but the fact that

We have to give CJ Stander a mention. He announced his retirement in a dignified and understated manner. He could continue to play for another few years and earn great money. But for him, it isn’t about the money but a desire to return to his family in South Africa. Us ordinary Joes view the
I am meandering my way through Sean Gallagher’s book ‘Secrets to Success’. The book is excellent. The focus is on the success stories of many Irish businesses that we know something about, but not a lot. I recently read about Done Deal. It was set up in 2005 by Fred Karlsson and his wife Geraldine
It’s a nice calm day in Tramore. Although there is a lonely wave or two creeping over the prom wall. Waiting to engulf an unsuspecting passerby. The Metalman is visible and surveying the bay for early morning swimmers. All that is missing is a whistle and a warning light to assume the role of an
It’s great to see a stretch in the evenings and brighter days following the near monsoon earlier in the week. A lot of very stressed-out parents are ecstatic that their little pride and joys and going back to school. Food bills will fall and relaxing tea breaks will rise. The hair is gone beyond ridiculous.
