Best wishes to my buddy veteran hack Paddy Clancy who is battling Covid in hospital.

Why does it take an Irish Government a year to realise the virus could be coming in via the airports. Hello is there anyone at home??

I have sadly come to the conclusion this Government hasn’t a clue how to handle Covid 19. Pathetic leadership from the top, no plan whatsoever.

Now that the Taoiseach Micheál Martin has banned everyone from going on holidays I hope he is not planning to fly to Washington on St Patrick’s Day! He can see Joe another time.

This country is going to explode if they lock us up until June . This is the worst Govt of all time full of headless chickens .

The Govt is not giving the people any hope. Vaccine roll out a disaster.

The EU Commission is a disgrace. Our Govt hasn’t the balls to have the row with them. We need to source our own vaccine ASAP.

Happy Thursday afternoon !

Good morning Termonfeckin , wind howling like a maniac all night. Don’t think the cops will need to patrol the beach today, only the lunatics will be out walking and swimming!

I am sick of negativity so only good news here from here on in. Our Katie is letting me have 10 mins for my father of the bride speech, the cheek of her!

The big job today is to get the juicy red apples and spuds in Owen Kirwan’s Forge Field Farm, bang in the middle of the village.

The Mrs thinks she is the new Barber in Termonfeckin and is going to scalp my head shortly . I feel like prisoner waiting for the electric chair, cramping myself!

Big safari in Termonfeckin this afternoon .....we have a mouse ! First in ten years. Must have crept in from the freezing wind.

I am six days now fighting COVID 19 .I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. It keeps coming at you in waves.Lie low until you get the vaccine. You don’t want this. Another 6 to 8 weeks will get the country over the line.

Well done to Tommy Bowe holding Minister Heather Humphries to account on Ireland AM this morning over the pandemic. Very impressive. He articulated what the people are thinking.

Just arrived in Marbella to do a few stories and guess what it’s raining !

To every kid out there who had a bad day at the Leaving Memory Certificate don’t worry about it. I just about passed after failing honours Latin and Chemistry but guess what I have had a wonderful life as a reporter. There is always another way.

One week to go before Mayo lose another All-Ireland! I hate that curse.

The political hacks are all excited about the Zappone story. Yeah what happened was cronyism and wrong, but Joe Punter no longer gives a damn about it.

What happened to tragic Amy Fitzpatrick ? The truth is slowly about to start coming out.
