THE largest family gathering in the country was Martin Cullen’s curious description of the Fianna Fáil Árd Fheis.

Apparently, you can choose your friends but you can’t choose your family. Unless you’re Martin Cullen and you voluntarily spend five years with the PDs foster family before snuggling into the FF bosom.

Just as well that families are a forgiving bunch.
