I have seen this ad floating around on Facebook in the last few days and it is time to put a stop to it.

It is a phishing site. This is NOT a giveaway by Ryanair!!

The link in the preview should give it away “ryanair.com.first-ticket.win” – This ain’t a Ryanair domain! First-ticket.win is owned by a guy in Panama

The site goes to a VPS in America that belongs to “Impact VPS”…Ryanair wouldn’t cheap out on this……..

Please do not fall for this! IT CAN SCRAPE LOGIN DETAILS FOR FACEBOOK!

This year, I have been listening to a bit more music than what I have done previously and I have decided to create a playlist of songs that either have been released this year or songs that I have discovered only thsi year.

I have created this list on Spotify and will be updating it in the next week or so with songs that I remember from this year!

I will also be creating a playlist of cool songs that I am going to discover in 2018! Follow this one if you wish to be updated with what I am listening to.

I might as well take this time to wish everyone a belated Merry Christmas & a Happy New New Year as we go into 2018!

Last year was a bit of a downer due to the fall of Nologam and the very unsuccessful launch of Enigma but I am going to make 2018 my bitch and I will do what I want and no one is going to stray me from that!

See you in 2018!

Well, look at this fine specimen of a website.

This was the theme that I was using for my old WordPress.com site back in 2008 – https://padraigfahy.wordpress.com/

I missed the old simple theme. No gimmicks, no clutter…nothing. Just simple blogging.

I looked at other ‘blogging themes’ but nothing is taking my interest. If you have a blogging theme, let me know which one you are using and I will have a look at it! 🙂
