I was however on screen for approx 5 seconds. Probably end up with my own chat show by the end of the week.

Was thinking of the episode of Father Ted - you'll probably be the next Terry Wogan father. Ah it'll take me a couple of weeks to get to his level!!

First guest Awec. So Awec which referees do you actually like!!

Maybe the first question should be : Awec, yourself, Lacey and Clancy are stuck on a deserted island. Tell us how the conversation would go and what weapons you'd use.

Jack McGrath and Mike Ross both lost their brothers to suicide. It's amazing how many young Irish men (in particular) die that way. It must be hard to talk about it, I am glad to see him fighting the stigma.

Anybody watch the documentary on BBC 1 tonight about Crossmaglen's GAA club? It focused on the current team being managed by two former players who were involved in building a hugely successful team during The Troubles when the town was almost completely under siege by the British Army. The army took some of the club land over at one point to extend the barracks and used to land helicopters on the field in the middle of games and harass the players. All sorts of stuff.

Worth a watch if you've got access to the iPlayer.

Just finished the night manager. Also worth watching if you have iplayer access. (last episode was leaked, so you won't have access to that till easter Sunday). Excellent show.

Bombing at Brussels airport this morning, it was probably inevitable after the Paris terrorists capture 4 days ago, going to be a long few days

In the middle of it now, it's really good so far looking forward to seeing the last 3 episode (I only started watching it last week)

It's 6 hours long and honestly I'd recommend almost trying to watch it in one sitting.

That's something that I love/hate about BBC shows, they keep the seasons short show the quality is usually really good but you can quickly run out of episodes.

Luther is also great for anyone who hasn't seen it

I used to like television for brainless watching. Sitcoms or serial dramas like CSI, House and The West Wing that had loads of episodes. But I am loving this miniseries trend. 5-10 hours of television that feels like a movie quality script with more time for character development and plot moves. Now I am all about Sherlock, True Detective, and the Netflix shows.

The Night Manager makes me wish Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy had been a miniseries.

If we're talking TV shows Happy Valley is a must.

Done the couch to 5k and then the 10k one. First week or so is easy enough with a bunch of walking iirc but it gets a bit harder after that. If you go onto the 10k one after you finish 5k you'll fly through it.

I find the main thing with these plans is to not worry if you don't follow it exactly as you'll inevitably have **** days. Can be kind of disheartening otherwise.

I started the couch to fridge last night myself.

Thinking about buying a mini fridge so I can bring the fridge closer to the couch...

Precisely. Once they get to around 4 they become tidy little servants.

Today I considered getting the oft-mocked Ross O'Carroll-Kelly tactics book to make jottings in on the couch.

Oh and I'm look for decent ikea furniture suggestions for the big move to China!

Take it from me they're useless.

"Dad I've burnt my hand on the cooker"

"Dad my hair went on fire"

"Dad I fell off the chair getting the plates out"

Absolutely useless.
