Róisín Ní Mhórdha shares her experiences and love for Upstate New York, particularly The Catskills, a region known for its natural beauty and outdoor activities.
Róisín Ní Mhórdha has always had a soft spot for Upstate New York , so much so that she moved there last year and now shares her Little Black Book of this spectacular area of natural beauty … “Ever since first moving to New York in 1999, where I honed my skills in PR and strategic brand communications at the Magrino Agency, I have visited Upstate New York . In particular, a pocket of heaven in The Catskills , just over a two-hour drive northwest from the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple.
It is an area of outstanding beauty, named by its early Dutch settlers, which is steeped in history and has a particular significance to the hospitality and entertainment industry. It was a favourite spot for holiday makers from New York in the early 20th-century and is having a renaissance again. (You may not know that a Catskill’s resort – Mountain Lake Lodge – inspired the film). The region attracts an outdoorsy crowd, who come for the hiking, biking, skiing and fishing – The Catskills are considered the birthplace of modern fly fishing with more than 1,500 miles of trout stream

How is the new format going to play out?After three seasons of the deeply unpopular format of having two huge pools, there’s a new look for this campaign. Now, it’s four pools of six teams but with only four pool games each, your team still doesn’t get to play everyone else in their pool. And while we’re back to smaller pools, it doesn’t mean the return of the old home-and-away clashes with the other clubs in your pool. There’s also the fact that four teams go through from each pool of six because there’s still a round of 16 to follow. So the jury is well and truly out on whether this new pool format will be all that compelling. Teams who haven’t strung together good results can still edge through into the knock-out stages. It still feels like there are too many clubs in the competition at 24.
