The HSE is advising schools to ensure that children etc. wash hands with hot water as frequently as possible. If hot water isn’t available the advice is to use alcohol instead! I must put that bottle of whiskey into my lunch box.

A little setback

I had a problem with hosting and between the jigs and the reels I lost my database. Luckily I found one I had saved earlier … it’s not up to date though and it lost some of my posts so a lot of error 404 pages to be found (or not as the case may be). Still [...]

Amalgamation of smaller primary schools

Paddy Bloggit — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 19:14:19 +0000

As an educator I think it right and opportune for me to make some comment about An Bord Snip Nua’s proposals for the Irish Education System. Where better to start than their fairly radical proposals for the small Irish primary schools. Small to me would have meant any school with less than 50 pupils on roll … [...]

Sport rarely gets a look in here ….. but it does today. Bobby Robson died today at the age of 76.

I don’t think this worked too well [...]

It will help me to develop my interest in Irish history and in writing about the uniqueness of everything Irish. Call it a chronicle of [...]
