Beyond the run of the mill: May 2010
http://beyondtherunofthemill.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Beyond the run of the mill. A lot of what I do is run of the mill. This blog is for those moments when it's not. Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink. As you'll see from the article, the locals are forced to use their own wells, with less than satisfactory results. Rust damage from excess iron in the water. More damage, this time to the inside of the cistern on the toilet of a house near Carbury. Above the ground it's fairly quiet – a passing tractor or a far off ...

Beyond the run of the mill. A lot of what I do is run of the mill. This blog is for those moments when it's not. Thursday, April 26, 2012. This was published in the Leinster Leader, edition Tuesday, April 24, 2012. It doesn't matter how good you are, sportswomen get a raw deal.

Beyond the run of the mill: August 2012
http://beyondtherunofthemill.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Beyond the run of the mill. A lot of what I do is run of the mill. This blog is for those moments when it's not. Thursday, August 9, 2012. Bringing the Irish wine story to the stage. Susan Boyle chases the 'wine geese'. A Kildare woman is set to bring the history of wine in Ireland to life in a new play. But it's not the story you might assume. At points throughout the last millenium, the Irish were the biggest exporters of wine amongst non wine producing nations in Europe. The result is the aptly titled...

Beyond the run of the mill: July 2010

Beyond the run of the mill. A lot of what I do is run of the mill. This blog is for those moments when it's not. Thursday, July 22, 2010. Officially the most bizarre story I've ever done. Clane girl Sarah O'Brien went online to myfreeimplants.com to raise money for a boob job. Pic courtesy of the Irish Sun. A 21 year old Clane woman who wants to get breast implants has taken to the internet to appeal for the price of the expensive surgery. Sarah admits that some of the men she contacts are “weirdos...

Beyond the run of the mill: December 2012
http://beyondtherunofthemill.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Beyond the run of the mill. A lot of what I do is run of the mill. This blog is for those moments when it's not. Wednesday, December 19, 2012. When it comes to prostitution, we prefer a strange fantasy. The critical faculties of many members of society appear to depart them when they consider the issue of prostitution. The Leinster Leader views that train of thought with its most jaundiced and sceptical eye. But even if we are to take the broadest view of the matter, it is surely not relevant whether a w...

Beyond the run of the mill: The day science fiction became fact
http://beyondtherunofthemill.blogspot.com/2011/10/day-science-fiction-became-fact.html
Beyond the run of the mill. A lot of what I do is run of the mill. This blog is for those moments when it's not. Monday, October 17, 2011. The day science fiction became fact. Years ago, there was a programme on the telly called 'Beyond 2000' which, by reporting on strides and advances the scientific world was making, gave us a picture of what life would be like, as the title suggested, beyond the year 2000. Eh, yeah, whatever. A friend of mine, Kevin Sweeney, is a Ph.D researcher at NUI Maynooth....

Beyond the run of the mill: Darren Scully missed the bigger picture
http://beyondtherunofthemill.blogspot.com/2011/11/darren-scully-missed-bigger-picture.html
Beyond the run of the mill. A lot of what I do is run of the mill. This blog is for those moments when it's not. Tuesday, November 29, 2011. Darren Scully missed the bigger picture. I felt on the one hand that he lacked a true understanding or insight into the whole issue of racism, direct and casual. On the other hand I was surprised that he didn't see why pub talk should be kept separate from his comments in public. Hence the title of the story. It presumably shocked him to learn that by Wednesday morn...
