One of the concerns I, along with alot of others, have with the whole European project, as its now dubbed, is the lack of any real democracy. And no doubt that this was a factor in the vote on Lisbon.
So you can imagine my glee when Mr. Sarkozy says that we’re going to have to [...]
You may have noticed that the blog has been quieter than usual in the past number of days. Ck and Simon, the two regular posters on the blog, have upped anchors and headed off on various adventures across the globe, leaving little ol’ me to mind the fort. As my posting is, at best, occassional, [...]

By now you’ve all probably seen that new Vodafone ad declaring that “when you text somebody it’s like you’re there with them for that second”.
Utter nonsense I’m afraid.
However its not just texting. It has really hit home this week that modern technology, for all its wonders, doesn’t come even remotely close to giving two people [...]
One of the best things about living in Dublin is the opportunity if offers you to get your culture freak on by going to the theatre. I’ve become something of an addict in the one year that I’ve lived here and I must have seen a good 3-4 plays in that time. Despite having seen [...]
As you all know, we’re massive fans of the Frames here at Dossing Times Towers.
By chance, we’ve managed to get our hands on the lyrics to the first track of their upcoming album, Oscar.
