I’ve had a lot of contact with @eir @eircare the in the past few days. It’s over a year since I last dealt with their helpline. I can’t believe the change - promptly answered, all issues dealt with properly, next day arrival of equipment sent to me. 10/10. #GreatService.

Bosphorus this evening. Tankers (red dots) and cargo ships (green dots) at anchor, not travelling through the strait. The only vessel moving are small local vessels. Is it closed to prevent Russian vessels entering Black Sea?

Strong SE winds, rain, lots of water in Slaney and Spring tides this weekend. I'm monitoring very closely the tidal surge in #Wexford for risk of #Flood. Highest risk Sat 0800 & 2020 and Sun 0845. Thankfully atmospheric pressure is not low.

John McCain’s concession speech from the 2008 election. Listen when the crowd “boos” Obama, he says stop and settles them. America, you are unrecognisable. #ElectionResults2020
