    Read excerpt

    Last Sunday evening, 100 students of Ave Maria University in Florida finally arrived at Mount Melleray in west Waterford to begin their first semester at the newly repurposed study-abroad campus of the Catholic university. Formerly home to Cistercian monks, the site has been renovated and upgraded over the last three months after lying vacant for over a year. The students began their classes on Tuesday. With faculty included, roughly 120 people will be housed in the premises with male and female

    They’re bringing feudalism back, wahoo! Billionaire founder of Meta and all-round normal man, Mark Zuckerberg, has made like a Viking and stormed Waterford. The American plutocrat recently purchased Strancally Castle and as one of Ireland’s former top employers (Meta recently decided to replace 20% of its Irish workforce with AI), he will shortly begin populating the grounds with more suitably medieval workers. I myself have been offered a position as Yeoman of the Stool responsible for all

    I was speaking to The Big Man the other day. ‘We’ll be talking about this Summer for a long time’, he said. ‘We will’, I replied, ‘surely, we will’. ‘And there are plenty of the usual type whinging and whining’, he said, ‘but once the rain returns, they’ll be sorry then – and I’ll tell you that for nothing!’ Thank God, I thought, because it wasn’t the kind of insightful information for which I’d happily pay.
