An epic feeding frenzy of minke #whales, common #dolphins & gannets off #WestCork yesterday. There were at least 7 minkes (8-10m long) involved. The dolphins had rounded up the bait ball & then all hell broke loose. Watch the spectacular lung feeding!

Has anyone had any success getting through to @myCorkGP on the phone lately? I've been on hold for hours over numerous days and still can't get through. It's totally ridiculous that you can't get in contact with your gp.
@brianrushe81 This has to be a parody at this point,
Can't count for trees planted
Can't count carbon in our soils
Can't use AD or solar to offset
We've been thrown into the swimming pool with our arms tied behind our back.
And even at that some still aren't happy.
1/ Clarification this evening from @Dept_ECC officials that investment farmers make in anaerobic digestion & solar PV will not be accounted for in the 25% emissions reduction target for the agri sector, but rather for the energy sector & Ireland’s overall target @farmersjournal

This was the beginnings of a new bus shelter on Nov 12th 21 on the Tower Rd. It is now Jan 6th 22 and nothing has changed. Bollards still there, no bus shelter.
Our local corner shop keeper passed away leaving a huge void in Blarney. Local shops serve a purpose more than that of just shops. The story below shows the effect Tim had on all but to see this from young people gives hope for a bright future. Thanks @BlarneyKate
The owner of the corner shop in our village - Tim Crowley - passed away last week. A man loved by generations. A candle has been lighting outside the recently closed shop all weekend + messages from local children posted on the door like this one….
little girl in work today asked me if i watched the toy show last night and i said yes and she asked me if i saw the girl on it with hearing aids and i told her i did and she beamed as she showed me her own hearing aids and said “I have them too!” representation is so important
I wish people would clean up after their dogs! Three times this week I've arrived home with dog faeces on the wheels of my child's buggy and my shoes. Disgusting and inconsiderate behaviour from dog owners in Cork!! @corkcitycouncil
COP26 in Glasgow. 20 Tesla cars brought to ferry then 50 miles back and forth. Gleneagles has one charging station. Malcolm Plant Hire contracted to supply diesel and generators to recharge the Teslas overnight. Talk about take the piss. 😡
Heading into a week of #COP26 & Irish climate budgets. Be prepared to hear about carbon neutral factories & people offsetting their private ✈ by planting 🌳🌲, followed closely by farmers being told they can't yet offset 🐄🦬🐏 emissions against their own ☘ & 🌳🌲
