Well, the @RTEsport commentary team should hang their heads in shame! That was a spectacular performance by an astounding athlete, and a well deserved medal! Finke & Paltrinieri were both out of this world, but that doesn't and shouldn't detract from Wiffen's amazing achievement!
@Gemma30406177 @CatrionaGolden They gave us an 8-yr old booklet shortly after ; you can borrow mine if you wanna brush up! It'll only be a dust-collector in my office...
@ismiseleenie @IrishRail Heuston has the sliding glass doors, so not entirely open. Despite my dislike of starlings (we had them in the eaves for years before we managed to get rid between nesting seasons) you make a fair point, and I hope it gets out safely...
We note the concern about the bird currently living in Terminal 1 at Dublin Airport.🐦⬛
Helping a small (and very speedy!) bird to get out of such a vast and busy building is no easy task. But the airport team is on the case and - in consultation with wildlife and bird experts - a process is underway which will get the bird safely on its way very soon.
In the meantime, the public can be fully assured that the bird is getting plenty to eat and drink and is healthy. The safe return of the bird to the wild is a top priority and we thank the public for leaving its rescue to the professionals.
Stay tuned for further updates!
