A new report has recommended that Clare County Council take over the management of the Cliffs of Moher coastal walk. Sections of it were closed last year because of a number of accidents. Siobhan McNulty is Director of Tourism Development with Clare County Council, and she tells us why they commissioned the study...

We were thrilled and a little nervous to sit down with Ruth Franklin to talk about her work and share our origin story. The Book Cougars may not have been born without Ruth Franklin. Or, come to think of it, Shirley Jackson. We were excited to talk with Ruth about her brilliant new work, THE MANY LIVES OF ANNE FRANK, and her previous biography, SHIRLEY JACKSON: A RATHER HAUNTED LIFE. You won't want to miss our conversation with Ruth. She is a fantastic writer and a great conversationalist. The interview begins at 01:13:25. In our Just Read segment, we discuss “The Cold Embrace” by Mary Elizabeth Braddon, the current story from THE PENGUIN BOOK OF GHOST STORIES. Note: we spoil some plot points so read this ten-page short story prior to listening (unless you don't care, then feel free to listen with abandon). Head to the shownotes, where you'll find a link to the story available to read online. Rejoice, for Chris has finally finished SWANN'S WAY by Marcel Proust! However, this won't be the last you hear about Proust. She has committed to reading the next book in his longer work, IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME, with Robin Gustafson's group in Feb/Mar 2026. After Proust, Chris found a delicious palate cleanser in THE STOLEN QUEEN by Fiona Davis. Emily finished CARE AND FEEDING: A Memoir by Laurie Woolever and THE CLIFFS by J. Courtney Sullivan, which marks off another square on her Ghost Stories Bingo Card. She also attended the virtual ALL CT READS 2025 Adult Author Talk with Monica Wood who penned HOW TO READ A BOOK, which was one of her Top 10 Reads of last year. Thanks to our two sponsors this episode, authors Lise Mayne (TIME ENOUGH) and Aline Weiller (FUN: Essays on a Life Embraced). As always, we talk about more books and Biblio Adventures than we list here. We hope you enjoy listening and that your next book is a great read.

The compulsory purchase of land around the Cliffs of Moher has sparked controversy with local farmers, who claim they have been bullied and intimidated by Clare County Council…Andrea is joined by Pat Sweeney, Farmer, Tour Guide, Chair Doolin Branch IFA and Tom Lane, former Clare IFA County Chair to discuss.

Much of the popular walking trail remains closed for safety reasons, following a number of tragic deaths last year. Drivetime has seen a leaked, Draft report that recommends a Clare County Council takeover of the spectacular Cliffs of Moher Coastal Walk – describing it as "not fit for purpose". Reporter John Cooke tells us more.

It's claimed good-faith negotiations with landowners is the only viable way to secure the future of the Cliffs of Moher walking trail. A leaked report aiming to address the future management of the coastal walk by Tobin Consultants, has recommended the council should have full title of all the lands by outright purchase and compulsory purchase orders if necessary. It also estimates that the cliff walk, which is partially closed on health and safety grounds will not reopen fully until 2028. Clare Independent MEP Michael McNamara says landowners need proper remuneration for what they already provide.

The Tobin Report, which is designed to overcome an impasse and determine a future management structure for the Cliffs of Moher, has recommended that Clare County Council buy the necessary land from over 30 landowners to go on and bring the trail up to standard. The Southern coastal walking trail and 500m section of the Northern route remain closed as significant safety works are required on the trail. The Tobin report also estimates it would cost the local authority over €460K to manage the trail and has recommended Compulsory Purchase Orders of land as a last resort. None of this is binding however, there will undoubtedly be several meetings with the council, Fáilte Ireland, Clare Local Development Company and Clare IFA ahead. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Parteen-based Clare IFA representative, Tom Lane and Joe Cooney, Bodyke Fine Gael TD. Photo (c) Visit Clare

Two more stops have been confirmed as part of a Cliffs of Moher shuttle bus service due to commence on May 1st. The service will now take on passengers at Corofin and Carran in addition to halts at Kilfenora, Doolin, Liscannor, Lahinch Miltown Malbay and Lisdoonvarna, with the latter two both to serve as hubs with facilities and free parking. The service is expected to run until August 31st with a potential extension until September, while public consultation on the proposed timetables will run from now until the end of next month. Corofin Fianna Fáil Councillor Joe Killeen is hopeful it will become a permanent feature.

A plan to determine the future management of the Cliffs of Moher Coastal Walk will be released in the coming days. Last year, Clare County Council hired Tobin Consultants to prepare a report that would aim to address significant safety, transport, and capacity issues at the iconic landmark. The 6km southern walking trail from Liscannor to Hags Head is expected to remain closed for the year, while a 500m section of the Northern Trail also remains closed on health and safety grounds. Corofin Fianna Fáil Councillor Joe Killeen says they're expecting updates very soon.

The Cliffs of Moher, Ireland's most popular natural attraction at the edge of the Burren landscape, are experiencing partial trail closures due to necessary repairs on specific trail sections. However, the visitor centre and several trails remain open, with options for guided tours providing safe and comprehensive experiences. The trail closures stem from safety concerns... The post Cliffs of Moher in 2025: Safety and Tips appeared first on Ireland Family Vacations.

A tourism development plan for North Kerry and West Clare was launched in Tralee yesterday.   Fáilte Ireland developed the five-year cliff coast plan. Breda Forrest was at the launch.

The Director of the Cliffs of Moher Experience admits North Clare communities aren't seeing a substantial economic benefit despite being in close proximity to the world-famous tourist attraction. It comes as the Cliffs of Moher Experience Activity Report for 2024 has revealed that the attraction generated a visitor spend of €19 million last year. Of the visitors who stayed overnight in Clare during the months of July and August, 26% stayed for at least one night while 12% remained for at least three nights. Director of the Cliffs of Moher Experience Geraldine Enright has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons the data demonstrates the positive "power of tourism" - but says nearby businesses aren't feeling the desired effect.

President Trump has been on a staff cutting rampage since taking office, and this weekend, the hammer came down on an undisclosed number of FDA employees. The firings—which reportedly affected staffers within the FDA's centers for food, medical devices and tobacco products—came days after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was confirmed as HHS secretary.One space that could have an ally in RFK Jr. is psychedelic therapies, which the new HHS boss has accused the FDA of “suppressing,” along with stem cell therapies. On the flip side, Kennedy is a well-known vaccine critic, though his confirmation didn't affect the approvals of a pair of vaccines—one for GSK's meningococcal shot and another for Bavarian Nordic's chikungunya jab.One notable vaccine maker, however, is struggling. Moderna reported Q4 and 2024 earnings last week, revealing full-year revenue of just over $3 billion—less than half of the nearly $7 billion the company brought in the year before. Adding insult to financial injury, Moderna is also laying off around 50 employees on its digital team.Moderna isn't the only company facing challenges. Several biopharmas, including Merck, Regeneron and Bristol Myers Squibb are facing patent headwinds that, according to William Blair, are the strongest they've been in nearly 15 years. It's also a difficult climate in which to stay alive as a biotech, to which the 13 bankruptcies in 2024 can attest.Finally, BioSpace launched a new NextGen podcast series this week, in which senior editor Annalee Armstrong speaks with execs from four of our NextGen Class of 2025 companies—starting with COUR Pharmaceuticals.

A new shuttle bus service to the Cliffs Of Moher to be rolled out later this year will come with free entry to the landmark. The complementary service by Clare County Council will be ran as a pilot through the peak tourist months of June, July and August both this year and in 2026 and will be extended to May and September depending on demand. There will be multiple pre-determined routes with stops at Miltown Malbay, Lahinch, Liscannor, Kilfenora, Lisdoonvarna, Liscannor and Doolin. Local Fine Gael Councillor Joe Garrihy is hopeful it will be a success.

Overseas tourists are being urged not to alter their travel plans as the Cliffs of Moher remains widely open for business. Although the southern coastal walking trail and a section of the northern route remain closed for remedial works, the main interpretive centre, visitor centre and viewing stations remain fully operational. The landmark welcomed almost 1.5m visitors last year, however its been reported that concerns regarding the trail are causing uncertainy for visitors in the UK and US. Cathoirleach of the West Clare Municipal District Councillor Rita McInerney says its vital misconceptions are dispelled ahead of the peak season.

It's claimed Clare's economy will experience a major lift if the Cliffs of Moher's northern trail can be fully reopened by St. Patrick's Day. It's after the Clare Local Development Company, which manages the trail, confirmed the 6km southern route from Hags Head would likely remain closed for the rest of the year for urgent health and safety works. A 500m stretch connecting the visitor centre to the Doolin trail has also been closed since August, but the CLDC has expressed hope than an agreement can be reached with the relevant landowners to carry out works in time for the peak season. Ollie Gleeson of Ollie's Tours says it's crucial for the region.

The Cliffs of Moher's southern walking trail is expected to remain closed for the entirety of 2026. Roughly 8km of the North and Southern route combined were closed for remedial works last Summer in light of two fatal incidents and a Sport Ireland report which found visitors frequently veer of the trail engaging in risky behaviour. Large scale structural works are in the pipeline for the landmark , and discussions are ongoing with the 38 landowners who provide access to the trail to find a solution. Clare Local Development Company CEO Doirín Graham says its not a straightforward process.

New weather sensors will be installed on roads in North and West Clare in a bid to better prepare the council's response to extreme condition events. It follows discontent in the region over the omission of the main Lahinch to Doolin, Lisdoonvarna to Cliffs of Moher roads and the R486 and the R487 roads into Kilrush from the Winter Maintenance Plan. The council has since confirmed that it will have new sensors to monitor conditions on the regional road from Loop Head and on the access road to the Cliffs of Moher. Kilrush Independent Councillor Ian Lynch says it's a positive step.

Here's a glimpse of our conversation:  Now, it's my pleasure to introduce today's guest, Robert Eagles. 2:18  I really felt travel was my passion, so I began looking to get back into the travel industry. I found that CIE Tours had a position open, and the rest is history. 3:28 Founded in 1932, CIE Tours has built a reputation for excellence by delivering signature Irish hospitality. Now, 93 years later, we're proud to still be going strong, sharing the beauty and culture of Ireland with travelers worldwide. 6:21 I would say Paris.

Higher education is facing a perilous metaphor.  It is approaching a demographic cliff, a precipitous decline in student population that could have devastating consequences for the higher ed ecosystem. Recent studies chide higher education for not responding to a change that has been projected for some time, and that apparently comes as a shock to many institutions. In this episode I'll explain how simple math could have mitigated the effects of this phenomenon and ask what higher ed has done, or not done, to avoid what is coming.  EdUp Insights with Bill Pepicello is part of the EdUp Experience Podcast network.

his is episode 206 - all fire and brimbstone, a horror show. The squeamish should gird their loins, prepare the poultices, polish your monocles and tighten your bootstraps, grab your smelling salts Roll up your sleeves and fetch the brandy, brace for impact. It's an episode that will begin a series of episodes which are clouded by a fine bloody mist, and a fog of confusion. We're going to look at the amaXhosa Cattle Killings of 1856-57 and then the Zulu's most bloody civil war clash, the Battle of Ndondukasuka. One was a millenarian movement gone hopelessly wrong, the other was the old story of a young prince seizing power from the heir apparent. Both epics are an exploration of human consciousness and both changed South African history. Cetshway kaMpande of the amaZulu was amassing great power under the very nose of his dad, King Mpande. Hold on, Before we head off to Zululand in forthcoming episodes, we're going to peruse southern Transkei. Alongside a magical river called the Gxarha. The little river is about 20 kilometers long, a tiny snakes' tail, a meandering whispering essence, slithering through deep ravines and splashing in splended mini-waterfalls. This is a case of dynamite in small packages because the river harboured dark secrets. It was to bare witness to a catastrophe. The twists and turns of this saga are echoed in the twists and turns of the river, it's a squiggle of a sprint for those tiny twenty kilometers. Cliffs and thick forest, more a jungle, make it impossible to walk along its bank for very far, and giant shadows are cast at dusk and dawn from the strelitzia and the reeds. A sand bar blocks its final sprint to the sea which bursts open in summer, a blend of bush, cliffs, forest and water. It was a day in April 1856, the exact day is lost in time, when two youngsters, Nongqawuse who was an orphan of 15 and Nombanda, who was about 8 or maybe 10, left their homestead on the Gxarha river. Nongqawuse's uncle, Mhlakaza, asked them to chase birds away from cultivated fields. As they shooed the birds away in the early morning of that April day, Nongqawuse heard voices. She turned and standing inside a nearby bush were two men. They gave her a message which she was to relay to Mhlakaza when she and Nombanda returned. “Tell that the whole community will rise from the dead, and that all cattle now living must be slaughtered for they have been reared by contaminated hands because there are people about who deal in witchcraft…” The fusion of faiths and the belief in shades were intersecting in this youngsters' mind. She had heard the stories about previous prophecies as she grew up, about Mlanjeni the Riverman and Nxele the wardoctor. The violence and upheavals of the Frontier Wars were paralleled by a huge spiritual upheaval which resulted in a clash of Xhosa and Christian religious ideas. During the next thirteen months of this cattle killing between April 1856 and May 1857, about 85 per cent of all Xhosa adult men killed their cattle and destroyed their corn in obedience to Nongqawuse's prophecies. It is estimated that 400,OOO cattle were slaughtered and 40,000 Xhosa died of starvation. At least another 40,000 left their homes in search of food. But it was to have another effect. After a dogged 80 years of resistance to colonial expansion, the amaXhosa struggle collapsed by their own actions - and almost all their remaining lands were given away to white settlers or black clients of the Cape government.

This week, the real estate industry faces intense scrutiny and significant changes. Oren and Tal Alexander were arrested alongside their brother in Miami following sexual assault allegations, casting a shadow on their careers as prominent real estate stars. Meanwhile, Realty One Group makes headlines by allowing Phoenix-area agents to leave NAR, signaling a shift in industry affiliation. In legal news, Move's ‘fake leads' lawsuit has been transferred to federal court, while the embattled sale-leaseback platform EasyKnock has shut its doors, leaving investors and clients in the lurch. And in a surprising twist, Jason Oppenheim has been identified as the mystery broker at the center of a kickback plot. On the market front, mortgage refinance demand has surged 27% as rates dropped for the third consecutive week, and buyers are becoming more active, with house tours and mortgage applications picking up as we head into the year's final stretch. However, the Florida market is facing a looming ‘condo cliff' crisis, as fallout from the 2021 Surfside collapse prompts stricter regulations. Additionally, we'll explore what you need to know about the new Federal Flood Risk Management System, how 2024 local election results highlight voters' willingness to spend big on affordable housing, and the truth about traffic—what's driving clicks, leads, and sales in real estate marketing.

BBR Witness Gaz H - "Hi Deb, I wanted to get in touch with you after you shared the case where two ladies saw some horrible creatures along the cliffs close to Flamborough head and RAF Bempton. My partner and I had a very similar experience when we visited there in 2022/23. We were staying at a place called Wold farm in the campervan which sits between Dane Dyke and the Cliffs and we were at the top of the farm overlooking the corn fields. The fields are on a steep incline that then drops down as it nears the cliffs. It was at dusk when I saw two creatures I could not identify in the corn field, everything about them was 'off', the way they moved and the build was what caught my attention. These things had very muscular necks and my brain went through every known animal and they didn't fit with anything here naturally in the UK. https://linktr.ee/bbrinvestigationsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/deborah-hatswell-bbr-investigations-cryptids-paranormal-unexplained-events--2840337/support.

Dana Flahr wasn't born to be the big mountain slayer he worked so hard to become. Growing up in a single-mom household, things were a struggle, but one thing Dana's mom figured out was how to get him on the mountain and from there his passion took over. Moving to Whistler at 17, Dana didn't party; he skied daily, honing his big mountain skills in the winter and building his trick vocabulary in the summer. That combination got him a tryout with TGR, where he sent it harder than almost anyone in their movies then. Over the years, he's won Powder Awards, earned the respect of the best in the business, and banged out video jaw-dropping TGR segments and more each season. Eventually, burnout got the best of Dana, and he disappeared. We talk about it all and more on the podcast.
