from starring in one of the best irish movies ever - i went down - to an oscar-nom for his debut directorial short...say hello to peter mcdonald...


Pentecost, written and directed by Peter McDonald (I Went Down), is a coming of age story of a young boy who learns how to rebel against his father and the community. Against his will, Damian Lynch (11) is called in at the last moment to serve as an altar boy at an important mass in the local parish. He faces a choice: either conform to the status quo or serve an extended ban from his passion in life, football.

This is my 81-year-old-grand Aunt Maureen from Gibbstown in County Meath doing the Nevis bungee swing in New Zealand! She did it because they had a sign saying “free for anyone over 75″. They said at the Nevis swing they hadn’t had anybody older than her doing it! She said it was very relaxing and would highly recommend it!
