    I’m back on the radio tonight, Friday between 2000-2200 BST on Heartbeat FM. Heartbeat is a Dublin based love song station which is operating on a temporary licence from BAI, so you can be all slushy and get your requests in.

    In the Dublin area you can listen on 88.1 FM or on HeartbeatFM.net. I’ll be on every Friday and Saturday nights… Tune in!

  • How To Make The Perfect Meal

    This was fun to do. I made this months ago but only got round to uploading it now. It was made for a Batchelors Beans Competition that never happened.

    It stars Russell James Alford and Music is by Kevin McLeod.

    Yesterday I took part in the operational trials for the new Terminal 2 in Dublin airport. Terminal 2 opens in eight weeks and will be operated by the Dublin Airport Authority.

    So we all had to be there for 11.30 and we were bussed to a briefing area where we were told what was expected of us and where we had to go. We were all given scripts that we have to follow which had different scenarios. I was there in my own but there were also couples, families, seniors and people with disabilities including wheelchair users. All in all there were 800 volunteers involved yesterday.

    Terminal 2 is going to be the base for most trans-atlantic flights by the sounds of things and airlines using it will include Aer Lingus, Delta and Continental.  Staff from all the airlines were there making sure everything worked. My script told me that my name was Niamh Phelan,I had to check in to fly with 2 bags to CCC, Cayo Coco, Cuba (if only). The guy beside me was Sinatra, F.
