Nearly 100 years I’d guess
40 years ago today, 8 December 1980, John Lennon was shot dead outside the Dakota Building in New York City.
Lived for 40, now dead for 40. Time…
I’ll never forget it

Surprising, but not surprised, that the Burning of Cork didn’t get a mention yday. A proper historical event. 100 years ago this weekend.
If it was the burning of Wyoming or Cleveland I’d imagine there would have been a scurry of clever clogs to post it…
And they wonder why we are clannish and parochial… They don’t give a fuck about us above in Dublin we are being ridden rock solid

She was a genius. Although I loath “Fairytale of New York”.
