Hi @SportsDirectUK! My review was that you sent me a faulty jersey that didn't have a crest or sponsors on it. So it's interesting that instead of contacting me about the flaws, you've simply decided not to publish the bad review.

‘I feel I’m more comfortable here than in Ukraine, I feel my heart is right here and it should stay here..’ My personal favourite interview from all of 2024 - little Liza Petrenko in Croke Park with her friends from Corofin in Clare. @LadiesFootball U-10 Go Games Activity Day

🧵 Before Norma Foley's speech in 2022 the Leaving Cert was being carefully redeveloped. At the time subjects that had previously had no extra component (like aural, oral, History essay, practicals etc) were going 80/20. 80% exam, 20% project. People were happy enough with this.

Decided to watch The Wonder Years and had no idea @RobertPicardo was in it. Some top quality drawing of the female reproductive system going on.

Have Harris and Martin disagreed yet? They're the same party. Their whole tactic is to attack McDonald and agree with each other.

Finalising my planning for 5th and 6th Year English and History. Have the Dept said if the exam adjustments are staying for 2025 and or 2026? Can't find a circular on it.

I just realised that pressing '/' brings you straight to the search bar on Google and I feel like Homer did when he figured out he only needed to press 'Y'.

I'm making History questions and I mistyped 'Russia' as 'Wussia' and it made me laugh.

Call me old-fashioned, but the camera continually lingering on Declan Rice's face after that game was amazing.

It annoys me to see people online shout 'bottler' at their screens after watching the golf. He's literally the best player Ireland had ever had. The lack of support we as a nation give our best is crazy.
