I met Morty in Malmo and Nijmegen and he was staying in the same hotel as us in Nantes. He's a sound bloke (as were the rest of the Stockholm exiles) and from what I've heard from quite a few people it's an excellent book. I'll probably purchase a copy alright I'd say.

You can buy the book locally in the following locations:

Plugged Records, Washington Street
Cronin's Bar, Crosshaven
Liam Russells, Oliver Plunkett Street
Synthetic Records, Washington Street
The Shelf, George's Quay
If you go into the last one there you'll be about 37 seconds from my gaff. :)

Morty?

Was he the drummer that wore the Cork City shirt on Top of the Pops?
I think he edited a City Fanzine back in the late 1980's and early 1990's.

Bought a copy of the book last night, very well done.

Could make a nice little stocking filler for Xmas for any exiles

Bought it today in Easons. Excellent book and good value at 7.99 euro
Essential reading for all Corkonians at home and abroad.
Well done Morty.
