Visitors to Ireland are often confused by the every day references to craic.
It's common for people to ask 'was the craic any good' when inquiring about a night out or a party.
Craic can mean fun or, in the case of this doorway, news.
My news is that I'm now the last remaining new reporter on our paper, serving a town of more than 35,000 people and a wide hinterland.
