    …was actually in a ‘atrium’ hotel recently,NJ what can I say,but I did get tell the Dunne story….

    ‘At 1.30am Dunne answered the door of his suite. He was holding a glass of Dom Perignon champagne. He welcomed Woj-cik in and gave her a tip of $400. After some initial chit-chat, Dunne produced the bag of coke. They did a few lines and then he led her to the bedroom area, which included an en-suite bathroom.

    They both got into the large bath. The lines of coke kept coming. Dunne was chopping them up with a plastic membership card from the K Club, the exclusive Irish golf resort in Co Kildare.‘

        Larry David in episode 1 this seasons Curb,takes Lucy Lu to dinner,he walks into a glass door,she no longer sees him as sexual,Dunne never came back from this,ever.

        ……man himself was behaving like a suicidal baboon. At 9am the cops arrived. One of them talked Ben down and got him away from the edge of the balcony for enough time for three other officers to hold him down and cuff him. He was still screaming and roaring and it was decided that the only way to get him out of the hotel was to hogtie him to a pole.

        Guests looked on as the police officers walked through the hotel lobby with a man tied, hands and feet, to a pole, as if he was a beast being brought off to roast over a fire. Dignity was entirely absent from the spectacle…..

        Felonious amount blow…if you wanna get down…you just don’t come back from here.

        Famously Charlie banned his oul mans nick nacks from NY worlds fair telling him it’s tack and cheap,that garbage is not representing Ireland…most truthful words ever said by corrupt Haughey,the sis is just bitter.

    I’ll start so

    The shoulder of Seamus Brennan
    Ben Brisco
    Himself
    Dr of Tomatoes, Ml Woods
    Guessing Sylvester Barrett and Pádraig Faulkner behind him checking his betting slips
    Síle Dev
    Guessing Eileen Lamass with Tom Fitzpatrick behind herself and Síle
    Martin O’Donoghue
    Jim Tunney
    That useless hape Tom McEllistrim
    Could that be the side of the grand head of hair Ray McSharry
    That’s a young Liam Aylward at the very back with either Seán Calleary or Paddy Power – or neither tbh to his left
    and I’m going ta take a punt on that being Mark Killilea there top right – big roundy head on him but its not John Wilson, anyone?

        You could be right alright Oh

        and shur why wouldn’t ya
        didn’t he have his testicals all over West Cork

        I just don’t remember him being that tall
        ’cause Aylward was very tall, almost Jim O’Callaghan tall
        And Niall (Brian’s older brother) and Meave, weren’t taller than me
        could be the angle etc

      I’d say you’re correct; tis like The Doc’s beady eye. He and Haughey had the deadest eyes in the Dáil – which has a ring to it!
