I am back in harness after taking a three-month break. I feel energised and ready for "One more spin on the merry-go-round". (The title of a book written by Sean Duignan after Albert Reynolds became Taoiseach in 1992. Albert said to Sean, "Are you ready for one more spin on the merry-go-round?") What did I spend my summer doing? I read books for the pleasure of reading and the "white space" reading provides. Discovered new songs and singers, new poems, and as a result of the time spent relaxing, visiting bookshops, but also in pubs in Sligo and elsewhere, listening to music and engaging in conversation. Oh yes, I also played some golf! I visited "Liber", an independent bookshop on Sligo's Main Street, staffed by very knowledgeable and helpful book lovers, and came away with an armful of books. I have made a determined effort to read as many as possible. My favourite holiday read was "The Last Ditch", as I very much enjoy Eamonn Sweeney's writing style. You will also find him on the back of the sports supplement in the Sunday Independent. His publisher's brief for the book was to review the 2024 GAA hurling and football season. However, the colour in the book comes from his memories of his family and, most enjoyably, the stories about the pre- and post-match engagements with people on the stands. Also, the craic on trains and buses, travelling to and from the games. MY most enjoyable evening of the summer was in "Shoot the Crows" music pub in Sligo town, when we joined in with the group singing "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd, a song that passed me by when first released, and is now a favourite on my playlist. A great chorus to sing along to loudly. I will share some more of the inspiration I received because of taking time out, and hopefully my musings in the coming months will also benefit you. I am now ready for another spin on the merry-go-round and look forward to connecting with you again through my articles. By Executive Coach Andrew Keogh of Aristo.ie

He spent almost two seasons with Sligo and won the League of Ireland Cup after playing in the final against Shelbourne in February 1998.

In the rain-soaked woods below Knocknarea in Sligo, Ireland, a man raised human but born fae bargains with the Fair Folk to save his unborn child. Armed with “cold iron” bullets, a stolen sprite, and a prophecy learned from a carnival crone's mirror, he confronts an emerald pillar of flame and an ancient court that claims his bloodline. Irish folklore collides with modern terror as love, identity, and iron lore decide the fate of a family. Expect changelings, eerie glens, moss-slick boulders, and a showdown where one wrong move means a crib left empty forever.

Clare's Player of The Match from Saturday's All Ireland Final is hopeful that success can be the springboard to securing club championship glory, which gets underway this evening. It comes just four days on from Saturday's clash with Sligo, which saw Clare take home All Ireland Minor B honours for the third time. Rhea Meaney and her sister Nessa formed part of a seven strong contingent from Fergus Rovers on the panel, while their mother Patricia was involved in the backroom team. The Joint-Vice Captain says it's a huge achievement for both the club and her family.

Clare Minor Ladies Captain Aisling Crowe has labelled their All Ireland Final Success a dream come true for all involved. Following successes in 2013 and 2017, The Banner added a third Minor B Ladies Football title to the roll of honour with a four point win over Sligo. Clare had to withstand a late barrage from the 2024 champions, who were in search of a goal to force the game to extra time before Clodagh Mescal knocked over the insurance score with Clare's final attack. Crowe says the sense of unity within the squad dragged them over the line in the second half.

The captain of the Clare minor ladies footballers claims All Ireland victory could provide the springboard for success for the county's intermediate squad. Clare face off against Sligo in the All Ireland Minor B final in the Connaught GAA Centre of Excellence on Saturday, the same opposition who defeated them in the semi final in 2024.

Skipper Aisling Crowe is hopeful the current squad can take the next step to bolster the intermediate ranks.

June 12th, 2009. A man named Peter Bergmann checks into a hotel in Sligo, Ireland. Intent on erasing his existence, he moves with quiet precision and always alone, always careful, discarding unknown items across the city. Days later, his body was found on a nearby beach. No ID. No past. The name he gave was a lie. Who is this man…and what he was trying to disappear from?

In the quiet coastal town of Sligo, Ireland, a chilling darkness unfolded over just 48 hours in April 2022. Two kind, well-liked men — Aidan Moffitt and Michael Snee — were brutally murdered in their own homes. What connected them? They were both openly gay, both targeted through dating apps, and both victims of a twisted and calculated predator. In this episode of Seeing Red, we explore the horrifying details of these hate-fuelled killings, the community left shattered in their wake, and the manhunt that revealed a disturbing pattern of violence and deception. This case sparked outrage across Ireland and reignited conversations about homophobia, online safety, and how society protects — or fails — its most vulnerable.

This week, we're going back into the archive to revisit Ada Limón's time as host. Today's episode was originally released on February 3 2022. In this episode, former host Ada Limón writes… “In today's gorgeous poem of honoring, we see how the speaker transforms the story of her mother's illness into something that feels like an offering. Sometimes the job of the poet is simply to listen, and sometimes it is to become the unburied voice.”Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
