CCD Language students enjoying a visit to the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Kilmainhaim on Saturday.

With the arrival of Spring we'll be able to venture out on some of the beautiful walks around Dublin in the coming weeks.

Ireland's first public holiday of the year falls on February 1st in celebration of the ancient Celtic festival of Imbolg and the pre-Celtic pagan goddess Brigid.🔥🌱🌿💦

In the Celtic calendar, Spring begins at the start of February. We can see the brighter evenings, the flowers and plants awakening after the winter, and the songbirds are busy marking territories in the tree tops. There is no doubt that this weekend marks the start of the season for preparation, when farmers and gardeners begin clearing, planting, and sowing for a good harvest. Our ancestors needed energy and inspiration at the end of Winter to begin this hard work, and this is what Brigid represents. She is the goddess of healing- symbolised by water, the goddess of the alchemical power of fire, and the goddess of poetry. A pretty busy woman so!

Pagan traditions were adopted by the early Christian church and the goddess Brigid's attributes became associated with Saint Brigid, who lived at the time of Saint Patrick.☘️

What do you do on a rainy Satuday in Dublin? 🌧 Lots!

Temple Bar divides opinions amongst Dubliners but nobody can deny that it has lots of cultural highlights if you step off the beaten track 🎵 At the end of January every year there is a big celebration of Irish Traditional Music centred around the streets, pubs, and venues of Temple Bar. Many of these events are free so, check out Tradfest 2026 (which has now spread out to many venues in the greater Dublin area)

City College Dublin Language students took a break from music to explore the Gallery of Photography in Meeting House Square 📷 And where better to finish off a wet afternoon during Tradfest but in one of Dublin's best traditional music venues, The Cobblestone in Smithfield 🎻 🪗 🪈 🎻 Sounds like a perfect Saturday!

🍻 The Friday Craic – Today’s Irish Expression
🗣️ “Give That Man a Can of Coke”
 
Meaning (Irish English):
This phrase is used to praise someone for doing something impressive, clever, or heroic—basically a playful way of saying «  »fair play to him! » » or «  »he deserves a reward! » » It’s not literally about giving someone a drink, it’s about acknowledging their achievement.
 
🔸 Examples:
• “He fixed the whole thing himself—give that man a can of Coke!”
• “Did you see that goal? Give that man a can of Coke!”
 
📌 Important:
This phrase is light-hearted, humorous, and very Irish. It’s often used in sports, banter with friends, or anytime someone deserves recognition in a fun way.
 
💬 Try using it next time someone does something class—you’ll sound straight out of Dublin! ☘️

It was great to get out to enjoy one of the beautiful walking trails around Marley Park yesterday 🚶‍♂️our intrepid walkers proving that there is no such thing as bad weather when you are appropriately dressed 🥾 🧥 Luckily the rain held off, by and large!

Idiom: 'by and large' indicates that a statement is mostly but not completely true. Synonyms: 'generally', 'on the whole', 'mostly'

'The rain held off" = the expected rain didn't happen; it didn't rain or the rain was delayed until later.

🗣️ “Yer man / Yer one”

Meaning (Irish English): In Ireland, “yer man” (for a man) and “yer one” (for a woman) are casual ways of referring to someone whose name you don’t know, or when it’s obvious who you mean. Think of it as saying “that guy” or “that girl” in a friendly, informal way.

🔸 Examples:

“Yer man over there is trying to fix the car.”
“Did you see yer one at the pub last night?”
“I was chatting to yer man about the match.”
“Yer one was telling some great stories earlier.”

📌 Important:
These expressions are extremely common in Ireland and very casual. Use them with friends or in everyday conversation—they’re friendly, relatable, and unmistakably Irish!

💬 Try dropping “yer man” or “yer one” into your chats with mates, and everyone will immediately know who you mean! ☘️
