It may just be that they’re not going, but a number of councillors have voiced their concerns at the current trip/junket to Alicante for the launch of the Volvo Ocean Race.

I suppose one way of getting ourselves through the current problems is to support other Irish industries and keep some money in circulation here. On the other hand a little break away can lift the spirits, so I combined both for a few days last week and went and visited a friend living in Carcassonne.

Does a rescue helicopter pilot have nine lives? David Courtney just might. He is the author of Nine Lives, his account of his time in a search and rescue helicopter.

I have been intrigued over the years by the large volumes of people travelling weekly across the water to support, in the main, Glasgow Celtic and English soccer teams. No expense is spared it seems as these die hard supporters make their weekly pilgrimages to London, Manchester, or Liverpool. My 10-year-old son, Johnny, is a supporter of Liverpool so I decided to source a couple of tickets for a home match in Anfield as a Christmas present. I booked the flights last December. Departure was from Knock on Saturday morning with the return flights booked for Sunday lunchtime. I discovered, however, sometime in mid January that Sky Sports, which dictates when matches are played, had moved this fixture to Sunday which meant I had to re-book our flights. When I realised what Ryanair wanted to charge me to change my scheduled flights, I decided to stick with my outbound journey and book separate flights home on the Monday. With an arrival time of 10.45am in Liverpool and loads of time to kill I managed to secure two tickets for the Manchester v Blackburn game on the Saturday evening in Old Trafford. Johnny had got lucky!
