Shamrock shenanigans - 40 Shades of Green around the world
Shamrock shenanigans - 40 Shades of Green around the world
DaithaiC
: "After St. Patrick’s Day yesterday the greening of the world seems complete as the 17th March seems to have morphed into a “Greenfest” not just for people of Irish extraction but those who want to join in and be Irish for a day. Indeed in a sign of the mark made by Irish Culture many people from places as extreme as Ulan Bator to Wolverhampton feel they have a little bit of the Irish in them. The attitude is best summed up by an Irish Bar in Toronto which had the slogan “Same Ireland, different country!”"

Stockwell Bus Garage
Stockwell Bus Garage
DaithaiC
: "I have always had a soft spot for Will Self ever since he was caught powdering his nose with Colombian snuff on the then Prime Minister’s John Major’s campaign plane in 1997. Now the writer and loyal Stockwellian has proposed Stockwell Bus Garage (designed by Adie, Button and Partners, with the engineer A. E. Beer) as his choice for London's Most Important Building. He was speaking as part of a series of Royal Academy lectures on 14th March 2011 at the Geological Society, Piccadilly. Self's appreciation of the garage as grown from passing it every day. It is, he says, "a working building, integrally connected to London’s public transport". "

Ireland – Where did the money go?
Ireland – Where did the money go?
DaithaiC
: "Well that is the €85bn question, the value of the “bailout” to the Irish economy from the IMF / ECB not to mention asset stripping Ireland’s “fund” for Public Sector pensions which is to be filleted as part of the IMF / ECB conditions. No doubt many in Ireland will find this question relevant as they stare into the abyss of default, repossession and plummeting living standards. "

My Blog Awards
My Blog Awards
DaithaiC
: "Blogging is often seen as a lonely furrow but I don’t know how. Through the excellent London Blogger’s Meetup I have met many of my contemporaries at the edge of Citizen Journalism and not met a lonely soul amongst them. People often ask how do you find the time. Why? Nobody asks people how they find time to go to the hairdresser, play golf, go to happy clappy churches, pubs, concerts, Rugby clubs, or work late at the office destroying human lives. Why pick on Bloggers? I"

There are two reasons for this plug and the musical which commemorates the important event which happened 95 years ago at Easter 1916 in my home town of Dublin, the Easter Rising or in Gaelic, Éirí Amach na Cásca."

One is invited!

DaithaiC
: "One is acutely embarrassed for one had promised One’s Blogistas no more on *The Royal Wedding*. Then one’s principles go out the open window in the West Wing of one’s Castle for one receives unexpectedly one’s invitation to the Great Event which will cheer up Britannia and make it feel at ease with itself. When one has been subjected to the *Royal Magic* what is one to do?"

A letter to Symantec upon the renewal of Norton 360
DaithaiC
: "However I really have a problem with your marketing which comes across as being somewhat "smart ass" on pricing and exploiting customer inertia - it in fact is so bad to be disrespectful to your customers and to destroy customer loyalty. I had previously mentioned these points personally at the London Bloggers Meet up to Marie from Norton Customer Service."
