Burnage's premier bass playing scruffy lawyer, shambling Irish teacher and mother of bulldogs.

The curse? Lifted? Gasp.
Comhghairdeas le Maigh Eo 😮 🔴 🟢

@GingerWildheart @2000trees I've had my bass strap 20 years and am ridiculously attached to it. I had it at my wedding when I played a song with the band. It has a kettle lead holding it together. I need a Dunc.

@benarchibald I like Liverpool! It reminds me a lot of Belfast in architecture and seagull population.

[Sarah Mac Fhearadhaigh @uglybuffy]

@benarchibald I prefer to think of it as becoming bicoastal, although what I really want is 2 houses and a helicopter. Also would rather not think about poor Aaliyah who died in a plane crash when my flight's at 3.45!

@narindertweets As a fellow man-hander, giant manly paws are an advantage in a lot of musical instruments, and packing a superior slap.

@gabrielledisco About to move back myself after 27 years a Mancunian and nervous - how did Belfast displease you?

[Sarah Mac Fhearadhaigh @uglybuffy]

@GingerWildheart She's so happy!! "DADDYDADDYDADDYDADDY!!!!" My dog thinks guitars are evil and tries to attack them 😑

Are other people supposed to attend the proposal? I just had Semtex, a couple of crows and a dead rabbit in a forest at night. It was very black metal.

[Nicki 🫧🪷 @nickimoraa]

My daughter's fiancé asked me not to come to the proposal because he wanted it to be "just the two of them."
I told him I understood.
Then I spent two weeks pretending I was fine.
I wasn't.
Her mother died when she was six. Every school concert, every graduation, every birthday after that, I was the only parent in the audience. I learned how to braid hair from YouTube videos. I sat through dance recitals. I scared away one terrible boyfriend and survived three heartbreaks.
And now the biggest moment of her adult life was about to happen.
Without me.
The day of the proposal, I followed his wishes.
I stayed home.
Around sunset my phone exploded with messages.
Pictures.
Videos.
Voice notes.
Then my daughter called.
She was crying so hard I could barely understand her.
"I'M ENGAGED!"..

@Oscarrjavier95 I'd lose wireless ones.

@DanielCollins85 @ErvineLinda All this talk of weaponisation - it's not that hard to take it back. It was good enough for Gusty. Charles and Camilla ❤️ Gaeilge. It's just as easy to sing the Sash as Gaeilge as to write "tiocfaidh ár lá" on a wall. - probably Manchester's most prominent Methodist Irish teacher

@cassiee1919 "I'm sorry, Master, I will be more humble, I just tried to look nice to please you because I know how lucky I am, my PayPal is xxxxxxxx if you want to pay me back to feel more alpha" then hello block button.

[Sarah Mac Fhearadhaigh @uglybuffy]

@ErvineLinda Cé hé sin?

[Sarah Mac Fhearadhaigh @uglybuffy]

@ErvineLinda It's just a language and you can do what you want with it. Write a poem about Prince Philip. Sing An tSais, like this guy: https://t.co/4tRCpaG8gC. Argue with strident republicans who insist it doesn't belong to you and feel smug at your superior grasp of the modh coinníollach.

[Sarah Mac Fhearadhaigh @uglybuffy]

@Kelly0303 @JBrown1B Aontaím leat. It's just there, you can pick it up, or not. But it is undeniably there.

[Sarah Mac Fhearadhaigh @uglybuffy]

I'm so sad to hear this. I saw GosT about 4, maybe 5 times. Last time was at Damnation in Nov and it was a brilliant show. Also, he always messaged me back when I sent him screeching nonsense about set times. Raising a wing 😢

Honoured to have been asked to serve on President Connolly’s Council of State. As a woman born into a working class family in east Belfast, I am proud to have the opportunity to promote good neighbourliness and understanding across the island.

@MarkWilson1980 Where are the plastic paddies? Are they out of shot?

[Sarah Mac Fhearadhaigh @uglybuffy]

@SageDespatches We did that in 3rd year at my not Catholic but not officially integrated school, so everyone would have done it before people started dropping subjects for GCSE.
