A stranger just approached me in the gym to tell me that, after three years of treatment, he got the all clear on his cancer this morning.
He said he just had to tell someone.
I’m so glad he told me.

The
#IBelieveHer
hashtag gives an insight into how deeply upsetting this court case was for so many people. If nothing else, it must surely lead to a change in how rape trials are conducted. Is there any other crime in which the alleged victim appears to be the one on trial?
Some good news to start the week 👉 Congrats to
@SarahAMcInerney
and
@franmcnulty
who are joining
@MiriamOCal
for a new

A woman on the flight next to me has pulled out a roll of sellotape twice now.
Once, to tape her phone to the window to….film the flight?
Then, to get something to spit her chewing gum into.
Can’t wait for what happens next.

Got a flat battery in my car.
Spent two hours waiting for help to arrive. Cold, miserable, thirsty.
The very nice man from the AA arrived, smirked, and pointed out there's a BUTTON IN MY CAR to jumpstart it.
In bed last night, a gigantic spider crawled up my arm, and I accidentally flicked him onto my husband’s face.
One of us screamed like a girl.
In better news, Cormac and I are starting our Drivetime show soon 💃🏻

Got so many beautiful pics from around Ireland sent in response to this photo of Howth this morn.
It occurred to me, if we had to be locked down, it’s not a bad place to be stuck.
