Everything. As It Happens.
Farewell, dear lady of the airwaves!
I well remember our conversation on the shores of a distant sea. You made a young man feel more secure in what he was doing, and I will always thank you for that.
Be at peace now.
(nothing salacious: I just met her in a distant land and we had a good chat. Given her work in South Africa, she helped me understand what I was doing was worthwhile)
She did the State some service. (Way more than that old rogue, CJH). RIP Marian.
I re-listened to that interview with Joe Jacob lately, comedy gold! ‘Where’s my iodine tablet?’
Any link to that per chance?

Cut from the same cloth as the rest, sadly. Mespil Road Flats.
Whatever, it’s done now.
What about Mespil Road flats? Reading the report of defamation proceedings she brought against the Sindo, it doesn’t exactly sound heinous.
