Ask Audrey's Guide to 2022: Parking spaces are going to be as scarce as a PhD in Kanturk

Our fabulous agony aunt looks forward to 2022 — and it’s all basically Sinn Féin, boosters, and snogging in the streets. Happy New Year!

Country music star Garth Brooks on the roof of Croke Park in Dublin to promote his two Irish concerts which will take place next September. Picture date: Monday November 22, 2021.

I TOOK a look back at my 2021 predictions there, and I’m not sure my future is in horoscopes. But I’m probably wrong about that as well.

I completely missed that Garth Brooks fever was alive and well and living in a large tract of bogland in North Tipperary. I thought that we’d all moved on and that Garth was about as popular as a scientist in Kilgarvan. Just goes to show what I know. He obviously still appeals to the kind of people who get the horn at the sight of a Massey Ferguson — the Tractor Shaggers went all in and bought enough tickets for five gigs.
