In the first quarter of 2026 the Central Statistics Office reported that Ireland’s labour force grew by 18,000 people (0.6%) to 2,936,300 – the smallest annual rise in five years – while unemployment jumped 17,600 (about 14%) to 141,800, putting the unemployment rate at 4.9%. The sharpest job losses occurred in the information‑and‑communication sector, which shed 20,300 workers (‑10.7%) largely due to a 16,200‑person drop in computer programming and consultancy roles, and long‑term unemployment rose to 41,300, up 15,500 from a year earlier. Overall employment edged up by just 400 to 2,794,500 but fell quarter‑on‑quarter from 2,833,100, and total weekly hours worked slipped 0.2% to an estimated 86.3 million, with the biggest hour reductions in professional, scientific & technical activities (‑800,000 hrs) and information & communication (‑700,000 hrs). Additionally, the number of people working from home fell by 44,800 (‑4.3%) to 990,100, while those never working from home rose by 46,600 (‑2.7%) to 1,796,200, surpassing pre‑pandemic levels for the first time.

Today has been a challenge. The part of my brain that pictures things and helps me to understand stuff went AWOL this afternoon. Think test card, television fuzz, blank screen with a beep... you get the picture (no pun intended).

Thinking it could be the augur of something nastier - this doesn't happen very often - I stepped away, made a cup of tea and thought nice thoughts in my safe zone.

It's one of the benefits of working from home, having a safe zone, an area I can remove myself to and try to refocus.

The nice thoughts were Duncan Fearnley Magnum bat, Gray Nicolls GN500 bat and the wonderful food we had in Japan, btw.

Another cup of tea followed by dinner, some favourite television shows and an early night are called for.
