George Hook is not retiring

"I've a very serious statement to make," he said. "The position is I've cancelled my retirement...I'm not going to retire."

He said he was talking to his wife Ingrid last night and she asked him whether he still planned to retire. He said yes, to which she replied she wasn't prepared to have him "knocking around all day in the house".

I see Zebo has passed his x-factor to Earls . . .

Poor Shane Jennings and the other contributors on Vincent Browne last night. It was car crash stuff with Browne not knowing players and then his Munster centric questions.

What was the panel and why was Jennings there?

A rugby discussion with Jenno, Murray Kinsella and one of the ladies team who's name I missed. All three contributors had something to say but as usual with Browne, they were not let.

He's good for one-on-one grilling with politicians who normally weasel their way out of answering questions, but he should never be the moderator of a group discussion.

or indeed, 'that bit of x factor'.

I can't wait for the Irish times to go behind a paywall so I never have to hear anything from it again.

Can someone then persuade the Indo to follow suit? It's been just wonderful since the Sunday Times disappeared.

It was the coach of Railway Union's Womens' Team. I can't recall her name. I think she's an ex-international too from her contributions.

I see the IT has introduced it's subscription service. 10 free articles a week, after that you have to sign in.

Bye-bye!

[suisse]

Their website is shite anyway. Would you even read 10 articles a week? I'd probably read 5 sports articles a week and then maybe the same number of opinion/international news.

They don't post much in the line of great investigative journalism on their website.

Anyway, this is the end for Gavin Cummiskey. Would you waste a free 10 on his work?

I stopped buying newspapers when I bought a tablet. Can't see myself going back to paying directly for it now.

You avoid Generation Emigration so?

Listening to OTB at the Mansion House. Newstalk loves a bogger who thinks he's funny. Listen to Newstalk a bit and still don't know this guy's name. He's not as bad a slobbery Ciaran Murphy.
