True, anywhere in that general area is always good before the big matches in Croker. Thats where you'll meet a proper girlfriend and not some dolly bird wearin fake tan. Real salt of the earth people.

Cant forget Quinns on the day itself either.

I don't know about anything else, but that list and particularly number 41 brought to mind one person................Mr Pat O'Banton!! Yeeeeeoooooo! :D


Ad number 56 to him as well.

[Pat O' Banton]

Or Alan Maguire debating the big issues with some of the greatest minds of the 21st century on weekday mornings. Or the big night out in Coppers and Rody's before the big hurling matches. I'm never leaving home.

There's memories, Tony Kehoe's "Pop-a-larra-tee Top Ten" of a week night, after John Jude Doyle's "Equestrian Report". Endless Richie Kavanagh songs- South East Radio never extended it's sympathy to those who's evenings were bereaved. :D
