Grace’s Choice: Walken In The Air

Grace says: Working on the Internet, like all jobs, has its highs and lows. People online can be harsh however this week I am thanking God for its existence as it has provided me with hours of endless enjoyment. Hours, because I have played a 54-second long clip continuously for the last few days. I have watched this clip many times and know that I will turn to it for amusement in my darkest hour.

Mary’s Choice: Ready To Rock

Mary says: My favourite story of the week had to be the unveiling of the line-up for Slane next May. As if it wasn’t enough that the Foo Fighters had been rumoured to be headlining the summer gig, but MCD confirmed that they will be joined on stage by two other amazing acts. Can. Not. Wait.

Cathy’s Choice: Man’s Best Friend

Cathy says: If you have a dog, the chances are this story will bring a tear to your eye. It completely broke me this week as I really miss our family dog Bailey when I can’t get home to Galway. Masha, the dog in this story, is unwaveringly loyal to her owner and continues to wait for him, even though he passed away a year ago. Just heartbreaking.

Michelle’s Choice: Here Comes The… Guest

Michelle says: Being at that stage of life where it seems there’s another wedding every month, I really enjoyed taking a (tongue firmly in cheek) look at the 18 stages of being a guest at an Irish wedding. From dread at the drop all the way through to the singsong and second day shenanigans, nobody does it better.

Rebecca’s Choice: A Mutt with Moves

Rebecca says: ​A German Shepherd and Flo Rida – what’s not to love? In all seriousness though, this video of a German Shepherd ‘dancing’ to Low made me smile this week which is why I’ve chosen it as my favourite story. Sure, it looks like a set up but that doesn’t stop it being brilliant. They do say that little amuses the innocent!

Marie’s Choice: Not So True Detective

Marie says: I’ve always had a lot of time for Woody Harrelson and this video has sealed the deal. Turns out the True Detective actor is the one person in the world who did not realise that Chris and Liam Hemsworth are brothers. Seriously. His reaction is fantastic.
