Listen to Stories in Sound — the Kilcullen Diary Podcasts with Brian Byrne.

WEATHER

Cloudy and wet to start as the overnight rain clears northeastwards. A mix of sunny spells and scattered showers will extend eastwards through the morning and afternoon. Some will be heavy with the chance of an isolated thunderstorm. Highest temperatures of 12 to 14 degrees with moderate to fresh westerly breezes.

EVENTS COVER

For privacy of those attending, the Diary requires to be invited by the organisers to cover events in a private, commercial or club location. This does not apply to public meetings, or events in public spaces.

DID YOU KNOW?

Most domesticated cats have 18 toes, five on each front paw and four on each back foot. But some, carrying what as known as the polydactyl gene, can have as many as eight 'toe beans' on each paw. These have traditionally been considered lucky among sailors, who believe they help boat cats better plant their paws in turbulent waters.
