Kieran Cuddihy: Proximity to Kilkenny superstars was a big deal for me

Kilkenny fans will travel with hope in their hearts this Sunday but the team of the early 90s will always be special

Finished up on @BreakfastNT today and what a show to go out on. #golfgate dominated and we exclusively broke the news of #DaraCalleary ’s resignation. I’ll miss the team but looking forward to a new adventure on @TheHardShoulder from Aug 31st @NewstalkFM

I guess that makes it official. Delighted that every Sunday from 11 on @NewstalkFM I’ll be presenting 2 full hours of my opinions on senior club hurling in Kilkenny. And maybe some other stuff.

This is a De Havilland Vampire. @IrishAirCorps used to have them. But if you suggest they should have anything with a jet engine today, people accuse you wanting to join NATO. @defenceforces should be properly equipped.

This makes sense. There were almost no Covid cases in Ireland back in early January when we were all wearing masks. #Covid_19 #covid19

We’ll cover #Covid NEWS this week on @TheHardShoulder but we’ll avoid Covid SPECULATION. Lots of it out there but it’s #Christmas week. Time to get into the spirit of things 🎄

@ArleneFosterUK I am. But that’s not the quote. It’s “so so sorry”. Not “very very sorry”. Again, it’s these little details that are tripping you up Arlene…

What pregnant women need to do is bring along a cabinet minister to the maternity hospital. Then Government will immediately rewrite the rules to allow unrestricted access. Simples #bettermaternitycare #Zappone @lindabtweeting

Over an hour into the new @BreakfastNT and not a single mention of Kilkenny club hurling, the Medieval Mile or plans to sink Carlow. @ciarakellydoc is a thundering disgrace @NewstalkFM

Apparently they're going to start greyhound racing at the track in Kilkenny at 8:12am so that people can gamble on it in Australia. I am alone in thinking this betting lark is getting a bit nuts?

The #aztrazeneca news is frustrating. And I suspect it'll be proven safe given no issues appear to have arisen in the UK. But are they not right to take a cautious approach? If they ploughed ahead and there was an issue, vaccine hesitantcy would skyrocket. #COVID19 #CovidVaccine
