It is hard to believe that it is thirty nine years, his wee gaisun must be over fourty now. It is harder to believe that the then UK Taoiseach let another Deputy die on Hunger Strike. God bless Bobby, Francis, Ray, Patsey, Joe, Martin, Kieran, Kevin, Tom (Frances' cousin) and Mickey.
A very interesting and, at times, humourous recollection.
