If your childhood summers – like ours – involved day trips to Clara Lara and Trabolgan or weeks spent at Mosney holiday park, you might want to brace yourself before watching the video currently doing the rounds on social media.

While it's been a good 15 years since Mosney holiday camp closed, our memories of the park remain vivid, so getting a peek at the camp in its current state didn't make for very pleasant viewing.

Having fallen into complete disrepair, the abandoned park resembles something from the opening scene of a scary movie, and we wouldn't want to watch it twice.

From the dilapidated holiday homes to the rotting interiors, this is one of the moments where you feel a bit of your childhood memory keel over and die.

Filmed by FlipFlop Windsurfing, the 11-minute video shows the section of the park which hasn't been put to good use as direct provision centre for refugees, and it's grim.

Don't say we didn't warn you…

In 2008, a group of high school students were named the Bling Ring, after they were convicted of stealing millions worth on money and goods from celebrities' homes… and now it seems that it's started back up again.

The original group cleaned out the likes of Lindsay Lohan, Orlando Bloom and Rachel Bilson. Before they were caught, the gang of teens wracked up a massive $4m in stolen goods.

However, in recent months, stars such as Blac Chyna, Scott Disick, Kevin Hart and Chris Brown have all been targeted, and police think there's another Bling Ring doing the rounds.

None of the stars were in their homes when the thieves hit, and mysteriously the robbers knew exactly where the safe was once they entered the house.

Kevin Hart was hit the hardest, with them taking more than $500,000 in jewellery and household items.

"They took so much stupid stuff," he told Radar Online. "They took a pair of my jeans."

Blac Chyna had $200,000 taken from her in cash and jewellery, and Chris Brown had about $50,000 swiped from his safe.

And just like the early 2000s, the burglars left absolutely no sign of forced entry.

While switching from gym bunny to mid-week glamazon is no mean feat for most of us, Vogue Williams pulls it off like a total pro.

Taking to Instagram earlier today, the 30-year-old broadcaster and model gave her followers a peek at the look she rocked while attending the launch of THE. SPACE –  a new high concept Dublin salon owned by award-winning stylists Nadine Quinn and Carla Rose McQuillan.

With a shout-out to her ladies and their new venture, Vogue shared a snap of herself on the night, writing: "So proud of my friends Carla and Nadine opening their amazing salon @thespace. Thanks for the hair girlos."

Attended by guests from the world of fashion and beauty, Vogue rocked the co-ord look in a midi skirt and crop top which she set off with killer lips, killer heels and a hailo braid which has everyone at SHEmazing! HQ falling all over themselves today.

Commenting on last night's launch – which took place in the Drumcondra-based salon – Nadine Quinn said: "“I believe that in each individual lies their own inherent lightness and natural creativity which, when nourished, leads to a more harmonious fulfilled lifestyle."

"At The Space we have chosen an enlightened approach to business," she continued.  "As a team we choose to work with presence and mindfulness, with a desire to make others not only look beautiful, but also inspire the idea that lasting beauty is developed from within.”

If Vogue's stunning look is anything to go by, it looks like we'll all be Drumcondra-bound in the not-too-distant future.

Prince Harry is well recognised for his charitable efforts, but today the 31-year-old Royal broke new ground when he was streamed taking a HIV test live from Guys and St Thomas’ Hospital in central London.

The Prince's test was broadcast live via Facebook in order to show the public just how easy being checked for HIV actually is and to help reduce the stigma which often surrounds the process.

Before the test began, Harry noted that despite his background just doing the test did make him feel nervous.

He said: “Even being the person I am and knowing the type of people I’m around, I’m still nervous.”

All the test involved was a simple finger prick and the results were almost immediate, but Harry was keen to stress that the hardest part of the HIV screening process is still getting people to take the first step.

He said to the medic: “Once you’ve got people through the door, that’s the hardest bit out of the way.”

After just a minute’s wait, the Prince was shown the result – it was negative.

Despite his good news, Harry eagerly explained to the camera what would happen if someone did receive a positive result.

He said: “If it was [positive] then we would be having a conversation…it is a life-changing moment but it is a series of events that ends up with me having potentially to take one pill a day for the rest of my life.  [And I] can continue to have a partner.”

Harry showed his fun-loving attitude by joking: "So whether you're a man, woman, gay, straight, black, white, whatever – even ginger – why wouldn't you come and have a test?"

He added that in order to normalise HIV testing everyone should get checked, whether they believe they are at risk of having HIV or not.

Well done to Harry for using his status to highlight such an important issue.

Rob Kardashian has taken to Instagram to share what looks like a teaser to his and Blac Chyna's new reality TV show.

The star shared a picture of the couple sitting up against a green screen, as Rob looks down lovingly at his future wife.

The image, which is a snapshot from a TV camera, is likely to be the beginning of behind-the-scenes pics from Rob & Chyna, the name which was given to the show last month.

The series will consist of six one-hour episodes, which will show the happy couple preparing for a baby and married life.

According to a press release, the docu-series will be followed by a separate special episode, “celebrating the birth of the newest Kardashian.”

Kardashian overload? I think so.

It's a good week for Conor McGregor, not only did he win Best Fighter of the Year at the ESPY Awards last night, but he's also celebrating his birthday a day early.

The UFC fighter took to Instagram to show off a present given to him by his trainer – and even though old, the gifts are certainly special.

"On the eve of my 28th birthday @coach_kavanagh surprised me with the return of my first two World title belts!" he wrote.

"My 145lb and 155lb Cage Warrior titles! We've been collecting these World titles a long time now!

"Thank you coach for showing me the Martial Art life!" he added.

Happy birthday, Conor!

On the night of April 24th 2016, the population of the State was recorded at 4,757,976 – a 3.7 percent increase since the 2011 census.

With the first results of the census released today, results show an increase of 169,724 people over the past five years, with 978 males per 1,000 females.

It has been established that the nation’s fastest growing areas were the four administrative areas of Dublin, along with the commuter belt counties of Meath, Kildare and Laois and the cities of Cork and Galway.

In addition to this, the 27th census also indicates a 3% increase in the number of occupied households since 2011 while the number of vacant dwellings has fallen by almost 14%.

Records also show that net migration varied widely across Ireland, with a low of -6,731 in Donegal to a high of 7,257 in the capital.

“These preliminary results, published just 12 weeks after census day, are based on a clerical summary of each enumeration area compiled by the 4,663 enumerators,” explained Brendan Murphy, Statistician at the CSO.

“These counts were returned to the CSO in advance of the census forms themselves and the results published today are based on this information," he confirmed. "Scanning and processing of the two million actual census forms is well underway and the first definitive results are due to be published next March, within a year of census day."

The first census was carried out in 1821 and was conducted every ten years until 1946 before beginning a five-year pattern in 1951.

Chantelle Connelly of Geordie Shore fame has just been dumped on Facebook.

The former stripper left the reality show because she wanted to concentrate on her new relationship with Tommy Sayers, but it has just ended – badly.

Just days ago she had 'Tommy' tattooed on her neck, and after wearing a diamond ring on her wedding finger, rumours went flying that she was engaged, however that's far from the truth.

In a massive rant on Facebook, Tommy blasts the reality star as being a "low life selfish coward" and says she cares about nothing but fame.

"I normally take this on the chin but not this time.

"The whole fact that we went for a meal last night and bumped into the lasses from housewives of chesser (sic), so she never leaves there side but leaves me standing like a mug (sic) so [I] left.

“Then [she] rings that off [her] head, blames it all on me, am not a one for these mug statuses but am getting me point across that this time it wasn't my fault, and I deserve a lot better!!

“Enjoy ya come down Chantelle you low life selfish coward, never felt so devastated and mugged off in all my life."

OUCH. He certainly didn't hold back.

At a time when a celebrity’s social media game is almost as important as the talent which brought them to public attention in the first place, it’s refreshing to know that not every Hollywood heavy-hitter buys into the whole process.

Having recently become Instagram’s most followed person, you’d be forgiven for thinking Selena Gomez has a team of social media consultants who edit, tweak and ultimately OK her contribution to social media, but it’s not the case.

With a staggering 89 million followers, 23-year-old Selena, who says Instagram is her favourite social platform, has kept the public captivated with a selection of candid shots and selfies – all devoid of outside influence.

Explaining her approach to photography and Instagram as a whole, she confides: “It comes in a moment when I capture something happening, and I go, 'Oh, that would be great for Instagram. I should post it.”

“I know it's boring, but that's genuinely what I do,” she says when commenting on her rise to the top of the Instagram charts.

“I'm not sure there's a method to my madness,” she admits before revealing she had no intention of becoming the network’s most followed person.

“I try to find a good balance of just being 100 percent myself and knowing when to post a really good selfie with good lighting.”

With that kind of approach, we’ll be following in Selena’s footsteps in no time.

Her last single – Pretty Girls with Iggy Azalea – might have failed to set the charts alight, but that doesn't mean Britney Spears' legions of fans have lost faith in the star's ability to churn out pop stompers.

Taking to Twitter last night to share a sneak peek of the promo for her new fragrance Take A Bow, the Scream and Shout singer also teased fans with her upcoming track, and they are PUMPED.

Clocking up almost half a million likes in just a few hours, the 60-second video sent Brit's fans into meltdown as they demanded to know the release date for the upcoming song.

"I am beyond blown away by this!" gushed one Twitter user. "Your moves, your body, your charisma! You are on fire. Forever an inspiration. I adore you!"

Brit, who is currently in Las Vegas for her Piece of Me residency, looked incredible in the promo which she captioned: "My new fragrance Private Show just got a spot on the small screen. #TakeABow"

Private Show sounds like a return to classic Brit-style, and we are already obsessed.

But one thing she doesn't have on her mind is men. "That couldn't be further from my mind, it will take me a long time to move on," she said.

With so many plans, we're not sure how she's going to fit it all in!
