    My old friend Shay Healy. One of the good ones. RIP.

    The only time thirteen is unlucky is when you have both judge and jury against you.

      Or you're a Templar knight in October 1307

    I see Shay Healy died in 2021 of Parkinsons. He seemed like a decent guy. He was the one who wrote Jonny Logan's What's Another Year Eurovision song, back when everything wasn't flamboyantly gay.
    He had a late night tv chat show in the late 80s and early 90s called Nighthawks. He interviewed the justice minister at the time who revealed that his cabinet had approved wiretapping journalists. Charles Haughey resigned over it in 1992.
    It sounds like there might have been some backlash for him because RTE didn't renew his contract, so I wouldn't be surprised if they were told to let him go. Nonetheless he kept going and did other projects and made a documentary about Phil Lynott. Fair play to him.

    Me and the misses were shocked that he could grab the people by the arm without fear of retribution from all and sundry.

    I don't like the number 13 as it happens although not for superstitious reasons it's just like odd numbers in general in that it doesn't match and looks unbalanced i like counting things in pairs you see and not have anything left over may sound strange but that's how it is for me

    Never point a knife at your friend or he'll be your enemy.
    Happened to my friend before he died. He was stabbed to death.
