Ok, I thought she was writing poems, my mistake.

It's a novel about a famous Irish poem called Caoineadh Airt Uí Laoghaire, the poem is quoted a lot in the book.

I watched a thing a few nights ago called Prometheus Now. Not my kind of thing at all, but herself wanted to see it. Far too abstract for my generally limited mental capacity.

Congrats to all on another successful Midsummer Festival!

The parade yesterday was great fun. Kids really loved it.

The Corcadorca play was more of a mixed bag. It moved location from the opera house to the triskel, which I didn't think worked at all. They would have been better to stage it in one place or the other imo.

The acting was generally excellent, though Gina Moxley spoke with a very staccato tone which grated a little.

Overall, well worth attending but maybe not one that will stay with me.
