Post by CM If we only use 10% of our brains what’s the other 90% doing – moping around being all grey and lumpy? Experts have repeatedly said that that’s cray talk; we use 100% of our brains but perhaps not to its full capacity. So, by sorta using the whole 10% myth in conjunction with […]
MorePost by TM Are you as ready for autumn as I am? I heard people moaning about the end of summer on the radio today, talking about the days shortening, the onset of SADS and the kiddies going all the way back to get some knowledge and, well, I just could not relate. We had […]
MorePost by CM Twitter has been all aflutter today with not only a surprise Friends reunion and the marriage of a former certain cast member’s ex-husband to the mother of his 6 kids (did he say “Rachel” at the altar by mistake, haha?) but the unveiling of Emma Stone’s new hair-do at the Venice Film […]
MorePost by CM I am at my wit’s end with office attire. At. My Wit’s. End. I know many officey environments like the Credit Union and the bank have uniforms – polyester mix too-large jacket and too-short boot cut trousers mostly – but what about solicitors and accountants and others of that ilk?

MorePost by TM Like most children (I think) when I was a little girl I didn’t really notice how old people looked.

MorePost by CM I’m turning 30 on Sunday and I’m so excited, that I just can’t hide it! I’m so excited! I’m so excited, I’m so… scared. Yes indeed, TM and I are turning the big Three-Oh and actually I’m mostly really quite fine with this transition – really, really fine with it. Really. It’s the […]
MorePost by TM When finding out that I’m a twin people always ask what it’s like to be one; and I always tell them I don’t know, it’s just the way it’s always been. The truth runs deeper however, but it’s hard to explain. When you live with someone from conception and grow up together […]
MorePost by CM *This post was first published in 2014, and the dates have been updated for 2018 accordingly! The Galway Races 2018 kicks off once again this Monday 31st July. If you’re a die-hard racer, not to mention an avid Ladies Day competitor you already know that, have been preparing for months and are […]
MorePost by TM Despite countless, unavoidable ads warning people of the dangers of smoking, people continue to smoke. Although we are all aware that by eating huge portions of junk food and not exercising we are probably going to get horrendously fat, people still adapt that lifestyle. And while it’s common knowledge that the sun […]
MorePost by CM I had an evening a few weeks ago when I sat down on in front of the box at 6pm and didn’t move from there for 5 hours. I wasn’t even watching anything good, just aimlessly flicking through the channels, resting on stupid sitcom after insipid drama. Then, when I was finally […]
