Smartphones are the name of the game now. And only really since the iPhone’s inception in 2006 which is relatively recently.

As a great man once said, look after yourselves, and each other.

After that, there’s an awful amount of luck involved in life.

Just watching the huge session led by Paddy Maloney on the Late Late Show in 1988.

Seemed to be a simpler more carefree time.

When does your torture end lad?

It’s actually the weather, but don’t spoil it for him.

Knock was looking spectacular as the rain hopped off the side of the terminal building earlier. The shower had a lovely cooling effect on my mosquito bites as I ran across the car park.

On a more sombre note - you’re popping up with startling regularity on this thread this late while.
Sometimes you get a run of grief like that, nothing you can do but accept the losses and move on.

Take care of yourself, a glass of something nice and a bit of John Coltrane will ease the loss.
