What happened yesterday in Croker eh?

I was on air on the roadhog near the stadium and the look of disappointment on the faces of the Dubs that walked past the studio window were just awful.. if it's any consolation, we all know Kerry are going to hammer them!!!

As the No.1 radio station in Dublin at the moment, it's going to be a sleepless night for us FM104 jocks and lots of radio DJs in the country as the JNLR figures are out tomorrow around lunchtime. Fingers crossed!!

All in a days work !!

Today I was on Grafton St talking to lots of Dubs for Face to Face (our daily feature which you can check out Monday-Friday at 11.40 and 2.40) and this lovely girl was modelling for some yoghurt! Grafton St just came to a halt while she stood there.. the poor girl!!

I just had to show you for work purposes, of course ;-)

You know when you need a bottle opener?

Well once I have these bad boys on, I'll never have to look again!

Thanks to Amanda from Heineken who sent them into me.

You can't see in the picture but there's a bottle opener in the sole of each flip flop.. very handy for those music festivals!!

Well...

It's Sunday afternoon and yet another weekend has rolled by. Where DO they go?

Here's something I saw on the way into work today.

Now the big question is why? If you look closely, you'll seat plastic seat covers still on the seats of the car. I never understood why people did this, in large amounts in the 80s and 90s but in this day and age, I still don't get it.

Why keep your seats clean for the next owner of your car? Why?



I'm working in McGowans in Phibsboro tonight from 11, if you're around, drop in.

Other than that, I can be found on FM104 in the morning from 10am filling in for Andy Preston.
