David Herlihy has appeared in plenty of movies and tv as well as theatre, I saw him play The Covey in The Plough and The Stars in the Gaiety over 25 years ago. Spot.
Mick Clifford is a spot by virtue of his prominence on tv and radio of late. Spot.
You slipped in the ballet thing pretty smoothly there. Would you say youâre the first Mount Sion man ever to attend a ballet? I canât imagine Skin Ryan or the McGraths being too taken with it.
I had a drink with a lad called Gerry Hutch this morning. Heâs known as the monk he was saying. It was in an Irish bar in Fuengerloa. I had a bottle of Heineken. He was looking a bit anxious. He was telling me a few great yarns. Some fella called Paddy Doyle got whacked back in 2008. If it wasnât his nephew that was driving the car. The same fella got whacked himself there recently. I drank up and made my excuses to leave
I saw the Actress Aisling O sullivan(best known for the Clinic) walking in the grounds of Mary I yesterday at around this time. I saluted her assuming I knew her from somewhere and it only struck me a bit later. She was with a nice looking younger girl and was dressed in a non descript manner. I didnât realise that she was in the production of the beauty queen of Leenane thatâs running there at the moment. I may go along before the run ends.
Spotted Wexfordâs favourite son, Mick Wallace, and his companion Clare Daly going to the lighthouse cinema yesterday evening. Mick was in usual apparel of jeans and a polo shirt whereas Clare was wearing a figure hugging dress and a pair of FMBs. The couple seemed in jovial mood, probably in the knowledge they have the commissioners on the ropes
