@LunchtimeLiveNT@andreagilligan Rubbish. Your own home is Yours, irrelevant of its size. A statistical 'norm' set by the EU boffins should not be used to Guilt-trip an older generation out of their family homes, often paid for over two generations. Irish housing problems lie decidedly elsewhere...
@MetEireann At last!! The return of the Synoptic Chart!! MIA from the Met Éireann site for the last few years.. It was always slightly bizzare to look at Pressure charts with no frontal systems!! Welcome back... Make sure they are on the TV forcast charts as well!
Another beautiful sunset for the start of another lockdown. If the weather stays like this, it will make it a bit more bearable, and lift the spirits. #Sligo
@BGurrinHistory Nice to see those existing original returns.. But how tantalising to see the certified copy of the original, made in May 1921..so much detail gone..
@Claire_Ronan@McHughSligo Yep, it scared us s***less! Big black scorch mark on the wall, and no telly or Internet! Never seen anything like it! Still have the lights, but everyone else in the area is out..
