Hanna

Went to see Hanna the other day. What a terrific movie! The young Irish actress, Saoirse Ronan, has incredible screen presence.

Refugee Effigy Punch-Drunk in Bludgeon Pub

                                      (Taken from The Evening Lies 07/07/2017 by reporter Todd Flesk) Proud pub landlord Ronan Colreavy spoke yesterday of his delight at an effigy of a refugee he has displayed in his bar The Wife Beater in Bludgeon city centre. “The reaction has been fantastic, my regulars love it and it’s great for business,” gushed Ronan, licking his lips and showing euro signs in his eyes. The idea was hit upon by a few of ‘The Lads’, as the pub regulars are known. They had been drinking all day, after an important Premiership morning clash, when Dano Scutts (a drinker at The Wife Beater for over 20 years) got onto the subject of refugees.
