Thank you to the most incredible

My last show on KCLR Live was this morning. I’ve had nine brilliant years back at the station for my second stint. They tell me it’s a revolving door. Go raibh míle 🎤

Rachael is just a teenager but has represented young people from around county Carlow on a national stage, campaigning for a better Ireland for young people to live in. Now she needs her country’s help to get out safely.

I’m sorry, I’m a total stranger but myself and my fella have followed this thread like a Netflix series we’re bingeing. He just told me about the update now. We are both so happy for you. On a serious note, that was horrific for you but thanks for your wit - you write so funny.
Update:
The search for Sheila Rice, 87 Years, missing from Carlow has been stood down.
Our thoughts and prayers are with her family. RIP.
Gardai have thanked the public for their assistance in this matter.
Exactly a fortnight ago, I finished my morning radio talk show. Since then, people are asking me "Eimear what are you doing now?"
I’ve started my own business
I write, record podcasts, offer a limited PR services for causes and people I believe in.
Well done

@saloreilly
has developed a Cork accent. We are only here since Saturday and he’s gone up a few pitches. Won’t be surprised if he starts using “boy!” over the more Carla friendly “lad!” at the end of a sentence.
The Late Late is on. He’s putting a few sticks into the stove and I’ve just announced “there’s a sale in Shaws”. Dead silence. Penny drops. We are ancient.
Why has Carlow got no refuge? We are lucky to have the amazing services of
@AmberRefuge
in Kilkenny but we need more resources to deal with families who need a safe space in Carlow.

We decided not to waste our Friday and headed straight for the beach after work. Annestown, Co Waterford is a stunning spot as you can see… interesting little edges and rocks and a gorgeous cliff walk.

Spare a thought for our emergency services tonight - fire and gardai. They have been flat out responding to calls. Fireworks, bangers, a couple of cars set on fire, a house fire in Carlow. I’m so grateful for rain, could’ve been even worse. When will people cop on.

Thrilled to see
@ciaraphelan_
winning Young Journalist of the Year. Hardworking and honest - we are proud to say she’s a Carlow woman too, one of our own!
“We are still praying for her - anything can still happen and I just want her back home safe.” Rachael Diyalou’s mum, Yemmy, talked to me in Carlow today about her how much she wants her daughter home as she makes her way across Ukraine.
Another reason to visit Carlow. Swan’s sunflower farm! It’s a fabulous family enterprise with younger ones involved and all. Farmer doesn’t use any pesticides and allows you to pick and bring flowers home for a small fee. Amazing walk and views.

Carlow town in the early hours of this morning. This is Tullow Street where gardai were called to an incident after a car rammed into a tanning shop. The inferno caused huge damage.
Did my first adult camping holiday in Ireland this summer. We had a spectacular week. River Valley Wicklow & IOAC Rosslare were our destinations for six nights in a tent. I’m so surprised - top class facilities and attractions. I’d recommend to all families.
What do we think of lolling around the house in a fluffy dressing gown with a Dingle gin before 7pm of a Friday? Asking for a friend.

Breaking - Huge fire has engulfed a factory on O’Brien Road in Carlow. Residents are asked to keep windows closed and motorists to avoid the area. Fire and emergency services are the premises now.
Small protest just now outside St Canice’s Cathedral where Bertie Ahern was speaking at a Kilkenny Arts Festival event. I invited Bertie on

Love how everybody in Carlow calls it “the COVID!” Great to be able to reapply lipstick for a bathroom selfie. It’s been a while…. Hard times hopefully mostly behind us.
