Berties Swan Song
Sliabh(een) na mBan A loan all a loan by the wave-washed strand And alone in a crowded hall More interest I will pay as they gave me eight grand But my bank account is not here at all It lies far away on islands where I stay In accounts where the statements are all gone…

down in one
Ryder Cup 2006: corny opening ceremony, worse closing ceremony (ask the MC how stupid it was) good golf (i think) and boy do they know how to celebrate. The USA didn’t show up, and they didn’t play well as a team in my opinion, anyway I know nothing about golf, it was the radio spectacle…
