What a lovely article... you can see the strong bond between rider and horse. JP sounds adorable with all his quirks. I love the part about him beheading his toys

Meh, you and your technicalities Well I won’t prevent it, but still think the Festival of Music is relevant in terms of being the place to show each other the music we found from unrepresented nations.

I like though that we use the Festival of Music as a way of getting to represent other nations around the world and I think it's better to have users representing their own nations and national juries in the contest. Why don't we just have a poll like we did last year asking users to vote for their favourite songs from the Festival of Music?

Another National Record for Judy and Vancouver K.... and a podium at a World Cup! I hope RTÉ reports this wonderful news in their sports bulletin later!

Tefera has just run 3:31.04 mins and broken El Guerrouj's Indoor 1500m WR at the Birmingham Grand Prix meeting. Still only 19 years old!

So there will be a 20km and a 30km event at the Oregon 2021 World championships..... that's ludicrous.

Ireland will participate

3 golds and 4 silvers.... very unlikely but it looks pretty on paper at least
