While the Eurovision has lost all credibility the bullying of singer Eden Golan is disturbing. Journalists asking her if her presence poses risk & danger to others because of threats she is receiving is bizarre & absurd ! Her answers were brave but really this is not acceptable.

Happy Ascension of the Lord, beloved friends! This Sunday, we pray for each one of you to have a truly blessed day. Our incredible children prayed earnestly for you during Mass today. Thank you so much for supporting our new parish in many ways!

Quite the gardening find! Inscribed in Ogham “Maldumcail/ S/ Lass” - the first part being the name 'Mael Dumcail. The second part is less certain... probably a location. So something like ‘had me made’.”

This truly was a lovely moment for a fantastic woman. 🇪🇺

We were putty in Breda’s hands…….Brilliant, engaging, opinionated, authoritative ( and a bit arch in places, but what else would we expect!)
