So I was coming in to work this morning, and all the 1904 messenger boys and girls were gathering outside the Mansion House for their Bloomsday cycle, and -

oh, friends, I barely know how to contain my excitement sufficiently to allow me to tell you this -

I passed within ten feet of Royston Brady, our beloved and revered Lord Mayor! In his necklace!

Earth has not anything to show more fair, I'm sure you'll agree.

[Note for those unfamiliar with Dublin politics: the above is saturated with a virulently snide brand of sarcasm.]

Dunno - could be.

He's the one who couldn't name the 10 new EU states when asked to do so in a radio interview - although he was running in the European elections. He's the one who said, when a FF TD was done for drunk driving, that this was the kind of thing that could happen to anyone. He apparently thinks of himself as the next Bertie. I think of him as a fool.
