Its time for me to reaffirm my dislike and distrust of hairdressers.

Imagine if your house was burgled and you had to pay €100,000 to bring the perpetrator to justice. Nobody would think this is right. This is exactly what the state wants to do when it breaks the law relating to the environment. If you think this is unfair or wrong then read on ⬇

The Irish/Gaeilge word for 'solstice' is 'grianstad' which can be translated literally as 'sun stop'. Which is very nice. Directly reflecting the Latin 'Solstitium' - 'sun stopped'. (17thC sun image - BM)

We also look to a brighter future and to the knowledge that those with a HIV+ diagnosis can live full, healthy and happy lives. Reminder: get yourself tested! #lilgbt #lgbt #WorldAidsDay #HIV #irishinbritain #irishinlondon #londonirish

We remember all those who lost their lives to AIDS. Today we also remember those who cared for our Irish siblings when they came to London for treatment. Their love, support and courage will never be forgotten.

Fcuking disgrace.. Time for Stevie G. #lfc

I took all of your advice. The new boards are now live in the SLATED Landmark Collection. Feel free to point out any errors. It was a bit of a rush job. Reposts would be amazing. Slated.ie #SLATED #speirgorm

What a wonderful President we have. #translivesmatter #transrightsarehumanrights

There was a 50yr window in which it made economic sense to teach coding in schools and the British education system missed all of it.

Remembering my pal, Irish poet, Sean Hutton on what would have been his 85th birthday. Miss our conversations.

Lookit...I'm just sayin...just doesn't feel like a coincidence is all. #COYBIG #Ireland #Leftie #Speirgorm #VoteLeft
