Arklow is to get two new data centres I spoke to Graeme McWilliams of Echelon last Friday about what it entails, and how they plan to deal with local concerns. Made my Breakfast Business debut on Newstalk, which you can listen back to here: www.newstalk.com/podcasts/bre...

Powerful photo on the front of The Irish Times this morning showing Garda Kevin Flatley’s colleagues mourning him at a memorial in Dublin Castle last night. Really sad to hear all the stories about him over the last 36 hours. Thoughts with everyone in the service.

And just like that, three years of university in one final waveform...

The snow in County Wicklow this morning. Plenty of people stuck on this hill already… @carlowweather.bsky.social @newstalkfm.bsky.social

Sleet and snow on high ground above Carlow Town but it’s at 300m and most reports of snow at present are on high ground.

Sincere apologies to the amount of times I misspelled Kilanerin. And Fionntán O Súillebháin of Sinn Féin. Hope he doesn’t mind me saying but it’s not the easiest name to spell in a rush at a count centre! Hopefully I’ll be a Gaeilgeoir for the next election 🗳️ 🇮🇪

Kilanerin Community Centre without a doubt had one of the best operations in the country. Huge well done to all involved. That’s us for now ✌️

If you’re struggling with space on your iPhone, go to Spotify, settings and storage and clear your cache. Normally a lot of useless stuff in there that won’t affect your offline listens or anything else and it frees a TONNE of space! Thank me later.

Tríona’s made it really easy to get your following list started! This and her two other media starter packs are brilliant (although having me in one of them might let it down slightly 🤣)
