I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
I just want a book to read

I just want one for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true oh
All I want’s a book bought by you.

A chilly Wednesday morning with windchill making it feeling even cooler but some nice sunny spells ahead. Also scattered showers in North and Northwest with some falling as snow.

B’ambasadóir é Manchán dár nglúin féin agus duine a bhí lárnach san athbheochán a tharla ar na mallaibh sa chultúr agus sa Ghaeilge. Sheas sé i lár an aonaigh agus thiocfadh a rá nár chuir sé é féin ansin ach gur chuir an pobal ann é.

Ina bhealach séimh féin, chuir sé i gcuimhne dúinn fán ról atá ag an teanga maidir le tuiscint níos doimhne a fháil ar an cheantar thart orainn agus orainn féin.

Mairfidh a oidhreacht i meon fiosrach spreagúil na nGael agus iontu siúd a théann sa tóir ar shaol níos doimhne agus fíoraithe.

Suaimhneas síoraí ar a anam Gaelach. 💚

Perhaps unwillingly, he was the foremost cultural ambassador for our generation and instrumental in the resurgence of Irish language and culture.

He gently reminded us of the role the language has in understanding our surroundings, and knowing ourselves.

His legacy will live on in the curious minds of the Irish and beyond, in those who seek a deeper and more fulfilling life.

Suaimhneas síorai ar a anam Gaelach 💚

Today we celebrate World Rivers Day by looking back at the River Liffey — the heart of Dublin for centuries. Flowing from the Wicklow Mountains through the city and out to Dublin Bay, the Liffey has carried stories of trade, travel, and daily life along its banks
