Due to the heavy downpour of rain this night, the famous, historic and iconic cotton tree that was once standing tall at the center of Freetown, the capital of Sierra Leone, has fallen after 200+ years of existence. ๐ฅฒ

@suirvale@isdb_group@MichaelDHiggins@Tacugama@DublinZoo Thanks for your hot take, but it's categorically untrue. Ireland is a significant global powerhouse, not only in Africa but particularly so (from my experience living & working on the continent). I am literally in an African country now, so I can witness the Irish presence here!
Wonderful to meet with Rev Dr Sahr Yambasu, Rev Clodagh Yambasu & family today.
Sahr who is from #Kailahaun was previously President of the Methodist Church in Ireland from 2021-2022. We had a broad ranging discussion from locally grown food, to education to girls empowerment
@filmiholic @cbgenealogy Yes, perhaps. Or he should just give it the prime time it deserves! I don't agree that it should just be accepted that book time is minimal and allowances be made. RTร needs to prioritise better. Books are needed now more than ever!
This is Pan Collins. Pan came up with the idea of the #LateLateToyShow when she pitched the item to Gay Byrne as a researcher in 1975. Now an annual event on @rte that Irish people around the world tune into. Let's raise a glass to Pan tonight ๐ฅ
Remembering our esteemed and most generous colleague Richard Grogan who gave selflessly of his time, talent and genius to the homeless. Rest in peace Richard.@GroganRichard
@ClannadMusic Very sad to hear this news. I saw you perform in Lincoln a number of years back and had a wonderful conversation with Noel after the performance. A true gent.
.@waterfordit It's got to be embarrassing to be a renowned institution of learning and knowledge, with fresh new 'university' status, and still manage to confuse 'formerly' with 'formally'...
That said, congrats on the new name and status! ๐
@AerLingus Carrickfinn is one of my favourite places in the world! Many happy summers spent camping in a beautiful field with a sea view, right beside the runway!! Would love to take my wife there and show her what she missed... Nowhere better than Donegal! ๐๐ผ

To celebrate, weโre giving away two return flights and a โฌ250 Holidays with Aer Lingus voucher for a hotel stay in beautiful Donegal๐
