We had a wonderful time at A Cappella Books celebrating #Bloomsday with burgundy, gorgonzola and fantastic readings from Ulysses by Arís. Thank you to all who donned Joycean finery and braved the open mic!

It was lovely to meet filmmaker Chris Moser this morning for an update on his work on a TV documentary ‘The Scots-Irish - A Musical Journey’. Take a look at their promo reel, supported by the Irish Foreign Ministry Emigrant Support Programme 👇🏻 youtube.com/watch?v=vQa7hv…

What we saw last night from Pennsylvania was frightening and wrong. It is a relief that former President Trump is safe and survived the assassination attempt. Our hearts are with the innocent spectators killed and critically injured. There can be no place for political violence.

I heard the news of President Biden’s decision with both sadness & admiration. He has been an abiding friend of Ireland, providing invaluable support for peace & prosperity on this island. 1/2
