Ross O'Carroll-Kelly

The room is absolutely rammers and through the door I spot so many faces from the past. We’re talking Angela and Dermot from the campaign to move Funderland to the northside. We’re talking Ida and Clem from the campaign to stop the Luas from coming to Foxrock. We’re talking Lucy and Aednat from the campaign to stop poor people being allowed into the National Gallery. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

“What the fock?” Oisinn goes. “Are you serious?” I’m there, “Oh, I’m serious all right. I’m as serious as – well, you know what.” He goes, “A living funeral?

“He must have been in a fight last night,” Sorcha goes. And – yeah, no – she’s talking about my brother slash half-brother, Brett. I’m there, “Why do you say he was in a fight?” And she goes, “Oh my God, didn’t you see the bruises on his neck when he came home this morning?” Seriously, sometimes it’s like she was never young at all.  ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

I’m like, “Bray?” And Sorcha’s there, “Yes, Ross – Bray!” I’m like, “But why do we have to go to Bray?” sounding like a spoiled child – in other words, one of ours. irishtimes.com [irishtimes.com] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

So it’s, like, ridiculous o’clock on a Saturday morning – we’re talking nine, ten, something like that – and I hear a ring on the front doorbell, followed, a short time later, by the sound of a woman’s voice going, “Is this the home of Ross O’Carroll-Kelly?” irishtimes.com [irishtimes.com] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
