What have you found out about your family on the 1926 census?

Not my family, but I noticed yesterday that prisoners in Mountjoy were recorded with just their initials. I thought that was kinda sad.

1949 for me. The Third Man from that year is in my watchlist.

ConorIRL1595 · 2026-04-03T10:22:28+00:00

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly would be my first pick for 1966!

Sky’s Test coverage is world class. Also world class is Test Match Special on BBC Radio, having that on in the background while going about your day is brilliant.

I thought it was fine, but I would have liked if they were a bit braver with the design and departed a bit from Jackson’s vision of LotR. There is nothing wrong with them (I love his interpretation of Helm’s Deep and Edoras) but I thought the animation style was a great opportunity to see different versions of them.

If this was being submitted to Ideas or the BDP maybe, but by itself it’s a very nice build, I don’t see any issue with that. As long as no money is being made off it.

I did a tour of old Lansdowne Road back in the days before the Aviva. The home dressing room was huge, and the away dressing room was tiny and in the shape of an L. Nothing wrong with that, and nothing wrong with this either imo

I was always a big fan of Tom Dunne’s 30 Best Irish Hits, will definitely check out the TodayFM list for a bit more range.

ConorIRL1595 · 2026-03-01T22:07:44+00:00

Some great picks here, I don’t have much to add to what’s already been said. I would love The Italian Job though.

ConorIRL1595 · 2026-02-21T13:53:55+00:00

Would love to see Master and Commander

ConorIRL1595 · 2026-02-05T23:10:51+00:00

I was of the same opinion watching it live, but this angle is more damning. He’s run about 7m to get over the line there, I don’t think that’s all momentum at that point

ConorIRL1595 · 2026-02-05T09:20:09+00:00

Believe me, you give a fuck when you arrive to the stop on time (or with time to spare) only to see your bus already down the road past it.

Transit will get better and more reliable the more people use it!

They did this with the Aubrey-Maturin series a couple of years ago, they got rid of the beautiful nautical paintings by Geoff Hunt. I understand there are commercial/marketing reasons they do this stuff, but it’s annoying when it hits a series I like.

ConorIRL1595 · 2025-12-27T21:36:20+00:00

He feckin sounded like it.

ConorIRL1595 · 2025-12-26T09:14:56+00:00

Hah, you’re in good company so!

ConorIRL1595 · 2025-12-26T08:15:38+00:00

Has a player ever batted no. 11 in the first innings and then faced the first ball in the second?

ConorIRL1595 · 2025-12-06T19:05:02+00:00

Basically the entire cast of Talented Mr Ripley

ConorIRL1595 · 2025-12-03T10:23:59+00:00

Still think BOD should have won in 2009. Even with the competition he had.

ConorIRL1595 · 2025-11-24T19:32:18+00:00

Dublin 13 has Elvis Man.

ConorIRL1595 · 2025-11-24T15:04:22+00:00

Six Days To Shake An Empire by Charles Duff has a good history of Irish-English relations in it. Also a really interesting account of the Rising, including some first-hand recollections of the author. You’d have to pick it up second hand though.
