Never meet your heroes they say. Well one of mine ran straight at me tonight and it was magnificent #CMAT #SpeirGorm

Tuning into launch of @seeherelected.bsky.social 'A Guide to Running in the 2029 Local Elections', an important resource for women thinking of running in #LE2029.

The only golf I ever watch on telly is the Ryder Cup. One weekend every other year. What's with all the abuse this year? I don't remember that as such a feature before. #RyderCup2025 🇮🇪🇪🇺

A drop everything and listen interview by @dearbhailmcdonald.bsky.social with Bláthnaid Raleigh on @rteradio1.bsky.social Bláthnaid, this Mullingar mam salutes you Listen back if you missed it #SpeirGorm

I just don't get this. The dubs broke hearts all over the country. No matter who they were playing the rest of the country defaulted to supporting their opposition. How can that switch into voting for their manager? #Áras2025 ##SpeirGorm

Seven years. Seven. Add a zero

Finbarr Roarty's 99 year old granny (and my auntie). It's only Thursday and we're at fever pitch already. #Donegal4Sam #Donegal #GAA #AllIreland #SpeirGorm 📷 Donegal Online

That feeling when you go into a shop to buy a birthday card and come out with a book that has you so angry you're ready to lead a revolution. Hell yes.

What an image. So much grey

I was resolute in my belief that I merely tolerated the family dog. Then I found myself scooping a mangled version of him from under a car and realised he is the love of my life. Reader, he survived. I have no idea how. Now I’m making him chicken broth instead of frowning at him.

Summer solstice in the sacred centre of Ireland @uisneach.bsky.social Powerful Thank you to the folklorist, druid and singer who combined to make it a very special evening (can't remember names😞) 🎶I will not lower my voice #Uisneach

May we all experience the pure joy of a townie dog finding himself on a 10 metre lead on a beach #Donegal

I urge you all to have a read of this. Women are the organisers. Women are the hand laid on the shoulder of the woman doing the organising. We've all had this conversation with ourselves. Together we get stuff done. Utterly brilliant @seeherelected.bsky.social #SpeirGorm

Tuesday night in Dublin Town. Throwing shapes with this legend

Mmmm

Myself and Sonia Norris are fundraising to bring a new show to Dublin in September (more details to be revealed shortly!). Our primary goal is ensuring that the artists working with us are paid for their work on the production. Thanks so much for your support! ✨🙏🏻 www.gofundme.com/f/support-ou...

Why am I listening to a man on @rte.ie talking about 'amicable solutions' and 'comfort when playing' iro #skorts in #camoige. How about we listen to the women athletes and do what they want

Home sweet home #Donegal

Happy apricating to the usually rain-sodden #SpeirGorm crew

I'm the one who can never find her car in a carpark. I would be permanently lost in a country where almost all the cars are white #Uzbekistan #Tashkent

They do train stations very well in #Tashkent. Very wonderful #Uzbekistan

This is a beautiful place #Samarkand #Uzbekistan

Mountain hikes #Nurata #Uzbekistan

Desert life. Sunsets and sunrises. And a beetle #Uzbekistan

Will this be the furthest that an As Darragh Did T-shirt travels??? The Kyzylkum Desert in Uzbekistan! @michellemaher.bsky.social

#Bukhara #Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 Very #SpeirGorm

I'm as far as Tashkent in my ramblings. Very impressive train stations and love the brutalist soviet architecture #Uzbekistan

Still rambling

I'm off rambling

And breathe

It's been a long time since I've been this nervous for a match. #Arsenal #ChampionsLeague

Went for a walk with 150 mates at the weekend 22k raised for charity People are very generous Some of them walk are very fast walkers #AsDarraghDid

Today's plan

This painting by renowned Leitrim artist Sinead Guckian is a powerful representation of the reality of so many of our council chambers. It inspires me to keep going to #SeeHerElected

Next month I'm one of a few hundred walking our hearts and souls (soles?!) out for the AsDarraghDid charity. Find out about what this great wee charity does, and support if you can 🙏 www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/M...

Night time snack. I'm so excited I can't breathe. Am I the only one who didn't know the St Patrick's Day loaf existed?? #Brennans #SpeirGorm

OMG I'd forgotten what great craic it is watching José Mourinho. He's just got a yellow card. I've missed him. #EuropaLeague

I LOVE a penalty shoot out when my team not involved #Liverpool #PSG

It is a new month, so you know what that means! Here is a list of the 62 people who have represented Limerick in the Dáil. The 2 women in red were from the City and 70 years apart. There have been 0 women from the County ever! There are no women representing Limerick at the moment. #speirgorm

One man and his dog

Gorgeous night in Dublin Town with family and friends in @smockalley.bsky.social at the @sceneandheard.bsky.social festival. We saw Wrestling is Fake / The Ballad of Levi Strauss. Both excellent. And very funny.

Getting stuck into this big year of parties when the gang all fall over the line into our 60s. ✅️ Party no.1 done. 🥳11 more to go

Ireland is at 68.51% now. Please if you are an EU citizen add your name to the petition. It only takes a few minutes to help stop this barbaric practice. #speirgorm
