Irish people are feckin’ mad for a bit of nostalgia so today we thought we’d take you right back to the heyday of modern Irish entertainment. We are of course referring to the era when RTÉ’s ‘The Den’ absolutely ruled television and brightened up our little lives whenever we got home from school. From the […]

You’ve seen The Snapper, you’ve quoted it a million times and you might even have read the book. That doesn’t mean you won’t sit down on the sofa for its traditional Christmas screening this year. The Irish classic is on our screens more than any big-budget Hollywood effort and for good reason, anyone who has […]

Yes. I am normally one of those fools who leaves most, if not all, of his Christmas shopping until the very last minute. This year was the first year in a long time that I carried out my shopping early. But as I stood in a wedged Dundrum – that should have had Guns ‘N’ […]
