Time out!

A week off.....ahhhhhh....

Back on the wireless Monday from 2pm....

In the meantime DO NOT DISTURB......

Dave.

I'm a Sadie-ist.....

Wanna know why I haven't been blogging for a while?

Here's why! Meet Sadie, the newest addition to the Harrington household and a girl who craves attention!


Now that she's snoozing I can blog!

Dave.

Wasting Time....

Who's in the House?

2 Words,

Great TV!

Summertime!

Enjoy it while it lasts!

Dave H.

Nailing my colours to the Champions League mast!

Something for the Weekend?

I'll never forget the first time I heard this song - It hit me like a modified Delorean doing (nearly) 90 through a deserted car park.

80's cheese? Check. Dodgy video? Check. Guilty Pleasure? Check.

Wogan knows best!

Terry Wogan had his fill last year and I don't blame him.
I'm still disgusted that Sinead & Black Daisy didn't make it through to tomorrow's Eurovision Final. They gave the performance of their lives and deserved to go through. After last night's voting sham I think we should boycott the competition from now on.

Good night Moscow, I WON'T be "tuning in" tomorrow.....




Fingers crossed Barney Rubble here takes the night off too.....

Douze Points!

Black Daisy head for Moscow tomorrow to take back our Eurovision Crown....



I love the song!

Fingers crossed...

Dave

Una Cerveza por favor....

Hola!

So I'm finally finding time to actually knuckle down and get some study done for my spanish course! Part of our "deberes" (homework) this week was to find an ad (preferably in Spanish) that made us smile.

Well here's mine (with subtitles!):





Hasta la pasta!

Not-Holes!

You're driving along and suddenly you see this ahead:



What do you do? You slow bloody down obviously!

Now look again:


Clever isn't it!

We could literally roll these out across the country! Who knew "art" could help save lives?!

Drive Safely this Weekend...

Hoppy Easter!

Dublin's Q1...O2!

On Friday I got the grand tour of our new offices and studios - very impressive!

Here's the view from the window.....


Yep, we're THAT close to the O2!

Roll on the move to Q's new HQ.....

Goodbye to all Pat!

Last night I watched as Pat Kenny announced he is to leave the Late Late. The question now is - who gets the gig?!! My money's on Debbie Allen.





Oh & don't forget Earth Hour tonight - Lights out at half 8! More info here.


Finally good luck to the Lads @ Croker this evening!

If the cap fits....

And let's not forget the other great Irish win for Bernard Dunne!


LEGENDS!

That Friday Feeling...

Old it may be but there's no denying....THIS ROCKS!

Snakers....

This St. Patrick's Festival Weekend don't leave home without 'em!

The Future's Fierce!

Partial to a sexy female vocal over a haunting house beat?

Well you will LOVE this.

Hue just can't Cry!

Ah yes - it's the weekend!

Plus, HUE & CRY play Whelan's tonight - Wohoo!

For Flip's Sake!

I've been MAD busy - hence the sporadic blogging!

Just a quick reminder that tomorrow is Pancake (Shrove) Tuesday!



EAT UP!

Happy Valentine's Day!

That Ramsay Street Feeling!

Thanks so much to my neighbour who this morning saw me stuck in the snow, wheels spinning, as I struggled to get to the main road and into work this morning.

He had a little fella like this with him:



Having tucked Junior safely under his coat - he pushed me out to the road.


Nice one!

Let it snow...

Not my snowman - the neighbour's.

Have an Ice Weekend!

:)

No Sheep More Sleep!

A new study says counting sheep doesn't help you to nod off - apparently we should think of a waterfall instead!?

So, to get you ready for a restful night:



God, I need a pee now...

Lisboa-t!

Spent last week in Lisbon and just sorting through my photos now. Here's the view from one of the upper turrets of the Belém Tower:



Not bad for a camera phone!

Take a Seat.....

Back from hols & daily blogging resumes tomorrow!

Have a seat,





Dave will be with you shortly.....

Gi-Ant turnout revealed!

Before the novelty of the US Presidential Inauguration wears off - I thought I'd share this with you, a satellite photo of the event:

(Click on it to enlarge...)




Those Ant-like "dots" are actually people......Wow!

LegObama

History in the making today as Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th US Presdient.

The creative juices were obviously in full flow over at Legoland in California where they achieved this:



Simply incredible!

The Windy City......

Yesterday US Vice-President Elect Joe Biden borrowed a "Joyce-ism":

My turn to borrow from the US:

Chicago is no longer the "Windy City"....Dublin is.

What a weekend!

Who da Man?!

No it's not my dad. This is Capt. Chesley Sullenberger - the pilot who managed to ditch crippled US Airlines Flight 1549 safely into the Hudson river and in doing so, saved the lives of all on-board.




Over 40 years flying experience obviously counts for something.

Legend.

Fancy a Cuppa? Milk and 2 Visions?

When it comes to coffee I'm a two-a-day kinda guy - and perhaps that's just as well if new research is anything to go by! Apparently seven (or more) cups a day can increase the chances of hallucinating or hearing strange voices!



Here's the blurb...

Carlsberg don't do jobs.....

I enjoy my job, but if I didn't & had six months to spare, I'd DEFINITELY be applying for this.......

Murphy's Law!

Weekend here at last - let's celebrate with Roisín Murphy... (Joey Negro's Vibe Mix)



Hasta Lunes!

Total Hottie!

Meet my hot new best friend...



The answer to the current cold snap!

Flu've gotta be kidding!

Looking for an excuse not to start that New Year's Diet?

A new study reveals that dieting at this time of year could impair your body's ability to fight the flu.

Don't take my word for it - here's the Beeb's Blurb.

Klingon to your Seat...

Admission Number Two in as many days - I LOVE Star Trek.

The new movie, courtesy of director J.J. Abrams (the man behind Armageddon, Lost and Mission Impossible 3) is released this May.
If you're a "Trekkie" I guess you've already pre-booked your ticket - if you're not a fan...RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!

Tealicious

As a self-confessed tea-aholic, I couldn't help but smile at this ad on TV yesterday....brilliant.
