  • Listowel Writer's Week; otherwise known as the Listowel International Writer's Festival, is on this week in Listowel, Co. Kerry and I thought I'd bring you along on a tour in the Kerry Writer's Museum in Listowel with Owen McMahon, the son of one of Listowel's famous writers, Brian McMahon.

    Hey guys!
    So I am currently too pregnant to be heading down to Kerry, but Listowel Writer's Week is on this week, otherwise known as the Listowel International Writer's Festival. It's a big event in the Irish calendar and I was lucky enough to get a tour of the Kerry Writer's Museum last year with the son of one of Listowel's most renowned writers. He was a great tour guide and a character and I thought I'd share!

      From a book I own called The Little Book of Irish Wisdom, in the section titled Irish Toasts: May there be a generation of children on the children of your children.

      Too pregnant is a fantastic thing to be.

      Could you not have made the trip in a wheelbarrow? I'm joking, of course. Look after yourself and the little one. That's the most important thing in the world.

    Hope you’re getting along well with your baby. I’ve a 5 year old and I don’t envy what you’re likely going through. Guess I just don’t like babies all that much. Thanks for the great videos. Cheers from LA. Thanks for helping me connect back with my fore father’s homeland.

Sentencing on 11 July (don't know why we have to wait until then, but it's not for me to say). Stay well! Take good care of your bundle and please say hi to Millie!
