Okay, I'll watch the programme after my book launch, which, even though it's all sorted and there's nothing to do but show up, is taking up a lot of my time. In an exciting way! I am also finally getting my authorial website set up, although I'm not entirely sure how I'm going to keep …
Going in There
So I've got the DVD of the TV show. I'm going to watch it, honestly. On Sunday. And I'll 'liveblog' it, although that's a bastardisation of the term. God only knows what kind of hits I'm going to get off of that.
Well, You Should Have Just Watched It On Telly Like Everyone Else!
SEE BELOW Yeah, well, okay, so... shut up. I just couldn't. I couldn't bear to sit there and know that other people, people I know, were watching it at the same time. It's the equivalent of shutting your eyes, and thinking that just because you can't see someone else, that someone else can't see you. …

A Notion
I am still trying to watch the programme. My Mac won't download the required plug-in. I tried a PC the other night, and after patiently [not much] waiting for it to download to the desktop, it decided that it didn't want to play it after all. I had to use an internet place yesterday whilst …
Oh, Man [Part Two]
Wading through pony campers to get to my kit bag this morning, a young voice ventured to ask: "Was that you on the telly last night?"

Thanks, Mr Television!
Geez. Apparently the show will be on the RTÉ website tomorrow, but I'm not sure if my friends overseas wiil be able to see it or not.
Oh, Man
When the phone rang kind of earlish [9.38 is early in my world], I sort of knew that maybe something was up. When I walked into the paper to be greeted with 'You're a star!' I definitely knew that the cat was out of the bag. Which begs the question: Why allow yourself to be …
It’s a Wrap
So, the production team asked if I would be willing to have two lessons in a row on the day of the shoot. And if I'd take Rinaldo for the second one. That'll teach me to blog in good time... As I mentioned here, it wasn't my best hour. First up, though, the Rebel yell. …
Ready for My Close-up… Or Am I?
I got a call from a friend of mine who's a film and television producer. It was great to hear from her, as we haven't met in a while, and we chatted away, and then Breda got down to business. She's producing a series entitled Consuming Passions — and I could already see where this …
