The Tartan Army are a credit to Scotland. Here they are in full voice singing ‘Loch Lomond’ in Boston Stadium last night for the World Cup match between Scotland and Haiti. Absolutely glorious.

You just know this is going to be another great read from the fabulous @EnglishRachael!
BONUS: When they make it into a movie with everyone wearing 1980s rock clothes, we'll all say, 'Ah sure I knew the minute I read the book back in 2024 it was going to win all those Oscars!'

My new book Whatever Happened to Birdy Troy? is out in the world. It tells the stories of a 1980s all-woman rock band and of the podcaster who wants to find out why they disappeared. Thanks to everyone who helped along the way. (And thanks to my cousin Sinead for the photo!)

Would mutual cultural accommodation make our society better, here and now? That's the question posed by @CaitrionaMullan, @mark_tottenham,
@IRLPatricia, Judge Richard Humphreys and me in our paper. Fair play to @irishborderpoll for joining the discussion.

Van being weird, but still a genius. Sinéad being superb and sane. The Chieftains being the first class professionals they always were. Letterman pulling it all improbably together, live.

What a lovely Irishman's Diary about Derek Mahon by my former colleague @ArthurBeesley in today's @IrishTimes.

Who should I run into in “Matt Molloy’s” in Westport, Co. Mayo than the great man himself? Seriously though, it was great to spend time again with Matt and hear such a great session. Thank you for our beautiful and generous welcome and, as ever, for all the music.

🧵So, having become accustomed to seeing my posters burned on bonfires, I honestly thought nothing could shock me anymore. However, late last night I received photos of effigies of me, @moneillsf and @MaryLouMcDonald hanged on the bonfire at Glenfield in Carrickfergus. >

Interesting perspective, and a thoughtful, well-written piece, by @JaneFerguson5 in @TheAtlantic today.
