I met him in his office once upon a time about 10 years ago. He had a lovely glass walled office upstairs in his premises. We went up to the office and he opened a drawer and took out an ashtray and proceeded to smoke 4 or 5 carolls in the 45 odd mins I was there. Room was literally shrouded in this smoke.
An Offaly man wouldn’t be seen dead smoking anything else. Shur they used to smoke them on the bench during All Irelands if the rumours are to be believed.
Was looking at Michel “Brexitmeister” Barnier addressing the joint sitting of the Oireachtas earlier.
He was standing near the Shinners and Mary Lou, being conscious that the camera was on her, and of the fact that she’s gone as fat as a fool, spent most of his address sucking in her cheeks in a sorry effort to appear otherwise. Pitiful, really,
