At the IBEC bullshit-in at the Norwich Union Stadium this morning.
Also: two Solpadeine, bananas and plenty of water.

Million-selling book.
Irish movie.
Includes Sean Hughes and Ed Byrne as Gerry Ryan
Made two years ago.
Still no release date (even on DVD).
What’s all that about?
[smooth=id:95]
Derek ‘Claridge’s’ Quinlan, Nama property developer (he owes €600 mil – half to Anglo), resident of Switzerland and former, cough, splutter, tax inspector, is selling his Shrewsbury Road home. Don’t worry he owns two others.
The Irish Times is, of course, positively drooling:
Quinlan’s house, Derrymore, is in mint condition and extends to about 465sq m(5,005sq ft). Three spacious interconnecting reception rooms lead off the hall, which itself is large enough to accommdate the owner’s Steinway baby grand piano. A double drawingroom has steps leading down to a grand dining room with wall panelling (above) by Queen Elizabeth’s nephew Viscount Linley.
OK. Enough. Where’s that frickin’ cement truck?
