Pre-drinks are part and parcel of a night out, and from the drunken renditions of No Scrubs to the girly catch ups, we wouldn't have it any other way.

Ireland's love of a good pre-drinks session is reflected in a brand new study, which has put Ireland top of the list of countries that have "prinks" before hitting the town.

Ireland had the highest rate of pre-drinking out of 25 countries studied, which includes the US, Australia and Europe.

85% of people have a pre-drinks party before heading out to pubs or clubs.

According to the study, the main reasons for pre-drinking are pretty simple.

Primarily, the most often-cited reason for pre-drinking is to save money, as drinks purchased in shops of off licences are "substantially cheaper than drinks purchased in bars and nightclubs."

There is also the social aspect, as people love to chat and engage with friends in a more intimate setting before hitting Coppers.

According to the study, the "prevalence of heavy drinkers’ factor" is also a contributing element, meaning that people hope to arrive to the club already drunk so that they can stay drunk for a longer period of time. 

The study also found that the higher the prevalence of drinkers in a country, the higher the percentage of pre-drinks.

Pre-drinks are definitely an ingrained tradition for a night out, and we can't see that changing any time soon.

Planning on heading home this weekend to see your mum? Well curling up on the couch for some great telly could be on the cards so. 

The much loved Tinder on the Telly returns to The Ray D'Arcy Show this Saturday, but in honour of all our mammies, the show has a serious Mother's Day twist.

Ray is teaming up with one Mum, who will chose whether to swipe right or left on potential gal pals for her single son. 

Keeping with the Mother's Day theme, there will also be special Mother's Day messages from Irish people looking to say a big thank you to their mams in a public declaration of devotion.

Ian Dempsey and Mario Rosenstock will also join Ray on the couch this week, for their first ever television interview together.

The creative minds behind Gift Grub will discuss their 18-year comedy collaboration, and they will pay homage to their favourite comedic endeavours. 

They will also share their memories of their good friend, the late Tony Fenton, as well as their plans for the future.

Rounding out the Mother's Day line-up is disability activist Joanne O' Riordan, who will drop by to chat to Ray about why Ireland is lagging behind when it comes to the human rights of people with disabilities.

On a very millennial note, she will also be chatting about her decision to give up social media for Lent, something we could never manage!

First Dates has become an Irish institution, and between the Twitter banter and the actual show, we're officially hooked. 

Usually, the show leaves us cringing, but last nights episode had a little something extra that made the cringe worth sitting through. 

Carol, from Glasnevin opened up about how the Marriage Equality Referendum completely changed her life, and inspired her to be herself. 

“I’d been spending too much time in the Porterhouse and not enough time in The George,” she chuckled, calling 2015's marriage referendum “life-changing.”

Carol was paired with the very retro and glamorous EJ, short for Elizabeth-Jane, and while the pair instantly hit it off over a whiskey sour, they unfortunately didn't feel the sparks and declined to go on a second date. 

However, the potential couple reminded us of how amazing and positive the effects of the marriage referendum had on the LGBTQ community.

Adele has paid an on-stage tribute to the victims of the Westminster terror attack during her New Zealand gig.

The talented songstress dedicated her song Make You Feel My Love to those who died in the tragedy. 

“Today there was a terror attack in my home town of London," the London-born star told her audience. 

“Literally I’m on the other side of the world, and I want them to see our lights, and to hear us, you know, we’re thinking of them."

“It’s very strange not being home. All I want to do today is be at home and be with my friends and family."

"Everyone’s fine but there are four people that aren’t fine" she said.

“So let’s dedicate this to them tonight, and to my home town, which is my soulmate. This is Make You Feel My Love,” she finished, culminating the touching tribute with a song. 

Four people lost their lives in the attack.

 Eight people have been arrested in raids in London, Birmingham and elsewhere in connection with the attack in the British capital.

Bus Éireann has announced an all-out strike, which is in place since midnight last night. 

Talks between five trade unions lasted more than three hours yesterday, and SIPTU’s transport sector organiser, Willie Noone, said the “time for talking is over.”

"Iarnród Éireann has advised customers that there will be significant disruption to Intercity rail services today, Friday 24th March, arising from picketing associated with the Bus Éireann dispute," reads a statement from Irish Rail.

You know the deal. You have a sh*tty Internet connection in your house, and when you try to post the cutest photo ever of your dog, Instagram fails you.

You try again, but nope, 'FAIL' just keeps popping up. 

No one will ever see your cute dog… SMH.

However, the social media app is testing out a feature which will eliminate the need for a strong Internet connection.

Many networks like Netflix and Amazon Prime have already rolled out this new feature, which has gained a great amount of popularity since it won't eat up all your data.

According to a report from the Facebook Developers Conference, Instagram will try to use the same method, especially in countries with dodgy Internet connections.

According to Mashable, the developers said: "Instagram’s mission is to help people connect through shared experiences. 

"For people in low-bandwidth regions, we’ve begun testing offline experiences that keep the Instagram experience consistent and let people consume and engage with content, even if they don’t have service.

"In this talk we’ll introduce some of our initial explorations into offline features, and share learnings you can apply to your own apps."

All they need to do is take a trip down to the midlands and they'll see what a dodgy connection is all about!

The black heart emoji was probably our favourite addition to the last emoji update, and now it's time again to welcome a few more on board.

Nearly 70 new emojis are coming our way later this year, including a mermaid, a dinosaur, a genie in a bottle and a woman in a hijab.

However, some of the new additions are probably not needed. When are we ever going to use a can of tomatoes?!

Refinery29 reports that Unicode, the company responsible for approving all emojis, will release the new set in June 2017.

We just can't wait to use the mermaid! *Just keep swimming*

The bus service lost more than €10m last year, and 50 proposed cost-saving measures are not being taken on by employees.

Its 2,600 staff members are refusing to take pay-cuts, which include overtime earnings.

As of now, it looks like no end date is in sight, so you may have to rearrange any travel plans for the foreseeable future.
