Because outdoor drinks are back baby… With the clocks about to change and the weather *hopefully* set to pick up, rightfully, there’s only one thing on our minds… Picture it now: You finish a long week in the office, the sun is shining and you get THE text – ‘Pints?’. Dublin is well known for […]
If you thought traffic was very slow this morning, it was because of this. A Luas power outage caused significant disruption for Dublin city commuters on Wednesday morning (10 December).

Enya Martin, of Giz A Laugh fame, has given the 90s hit Clueless the Dublin once over and it's as hilarious as you'd imagine. Like the original but with added Dublin flair.
If you haven't seen Clueless yet then I'd really love to know what you got up to during lockdown because I personally watched it at least three times (one of which may or may not have been in the past few days). One of the most iconic 90s movies of its time, people love it for a myriad of reasons - namely its style and the fact that it stars a young Paul Rudd.
Loosely based on Jane Austen's novel Emma, the movie is set over in Beverly Hills... a place many would agree is worlds apart from any Irish city. Which begs the question what would the movie be like if it were set in modern-day Dublin? I can't say it's something I've ever given much thought to but there would definitely be a few more 'howiyas' and 'huns' thrown in there.
Turning 25 years old this year, the movie is available to stream on NOW TV thanks to their Sky Cinema pass and they've teamed up with comedian Enya Martin (also known as Giz A Laugh) to give the cult classic an Irish twist. And yes, it's as hilarious as it sounds. Give it a watch below and try to keep a straight face.
