Morning all!

Roundstone Bay becoming a cruise liner destination? Gasp!

After 30 years Riverdance still dances on while Time marches on! Thank you to all the musicians, dancers and company members who brought the original dream to millions of people over those 3 decades. ❤️ Bill

Listening to the news this morning on is reminded of WB Yeats

Turning and turning in the widening gyre   
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere

Review: Riverdance at Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne: 'A beautiful celebration of culture, an astounding display of musical and physical talent, and a fantastic night out' - scenestr.com.au/arts/review-ri…

Roundstone predicts a rainbow coalition.

Amazingly uplifting interview with Caoilfhionn Gallagher KC on Brendan O’Connor - inspirational for anyone considering entering the law.

12-year-old Dunia lost her leg in an Israeli airstrike that killed her whole family.

We filmed this video with Dunia during the seven-day truce, and yesterday an Israeli tank-fired shell killed her while she was recovering in Naser Hospital in Khan Younis.

So excited to be presenting this concert University Concert Hall #Sondheim 😍

A concert close to my heart ❤️
