The magnificent Ger Eaton.
And his beautifully mad pad.

I met Ger a few weeks ago. He fronts a band called ‘The Carnival Brothers‘ [you may recall last Summer's The Sun Is Gonna Shine]. Ger is as cool as his home in Celbridge [Co Kildare]. His house is a joy to behold and the attention to detail is stunning. He’s also a top bloke.

Just saw this guy pull into disabled spot in brown Thomas carpark. He was lightening quick so couldn’t challenge him (though not sure I really wanted to). I’m totally outraged. BT staff don’t look after carpark.
