My thanks to @MiriamOCal for so generously giving me so much time this morning to talk about Dynasty, my book about the incredible story of Dunnes Stores and the people behind it. Available in book shops from Thursday.

Really looking forward to Caragh Maxwell’s event with June O’Sullivan at 2.30 @NenaghHeritageC

A few days ahead of schedule, but delighted to see 'The Dublin Pub' is now widely available in bookshops. If you're picking it up, please support an independent bookshop. You can get it with free post and packaging from https://t.co/DnAWFw74hl at: https://t.co/NfaqX4N5MJ

A small fire at the front of the bookshop was started last night after rubbish bags that were awaiting collection were set on fire. The guards don’t have reason at this time to believe it was a targeted attack. Thankfully the damage was limited and everyone is safe.
