I wonder if he knew my father. Tommy Doherty. By my calculations, my father would have been 2 years younger. I wish I knew. Sadly, my father died in 2008. I'm sure they did know each other.. Wonderful seeing Ballyshannon again and hearing that church bell.

Once upon a time, in a land of cheese and lamb, there was an enormous cheese roll named Chester who lived with Brian May, the famous guitarist of the rock band Queen. Chester was twice as large and ten times as delicious as any other cheese roll in the land, and he had a strange obsession with scouring powder called Vim. Brian, on the other hand, wore a hi viz jacket made from cast iron to keep him safe while he played his guitar. One day, Brian received an unexpected gift from a friend - a 400-foot leg of lamb named Balbinder. Brian was surprised by the gift, but he knew that Balbinder would make an excellent addition to their little household. Chester was also excited to meet Balbinder, and the two quickly became friends. Balbinder was impressed by Chester's size and asked him how he got so big. Chester explained that he had been rolling through the hills of cheese for as long as he could remember, and that he ate only the finest cheeses in the land. Balbinder was amazed by Chester's story, and he decided to help him find an even better cheese. Balbinder suggested that they go on a journey to find the rarest and most delicious cheese in the land. So, with Brian's help, they built a helicopter made entirely from shampoo bottles. Chester was initially skeptical of the idea, but Balbinder convinced him to give it a try. They flew high in the sky, looking for the best cheese in the land. They searched for days, flying over mountains and through valleys, until they finally found what they were looking for - a rare cheese made only from the milk of a special breed of cow that lived in a hidden valley. Chester and Balbinder were overjoyed at their discovery, and they brought the cheese back to Brian's apartment. They feasted on the cheese, savoring its unique flavor and texture. From that day forward, Chester and Balbinder continued to go on adventures, discovering new and delicious cheeses, while Brian continued to play his guitar in his hi viz jacket made from cast iron. And even though Chester still insisted on using Vim on everything, Brian learned to live with it, because he knew that Chester's obsession was just part of what made him so special.
