CONTROVERSIAL author Jeffrey Archer delivered the keynote address at the Thomas Crosbie Holdings annual business dinner in the company’s South Mall headquarters last night.

Mr Archer, a member of the British House of Lords, joins a list of previous distinguished speakers which include former British prime minister John Major, former New York mayor, Rudy Giuliani, Michael Porter, John Harvey Jones, Henry Kissinger, Bob Geldof and John Cleese.

The former Conservative politician and bestselling author was presented with a specially commissioned Tipperary Crystal piece to commemorate the event. It depicts an open book inscribed with the words of gaelic poet Antoine Ó Raifteirí’s poem, Is Mise Raifteirí, and was presented by TCH chairman Alan Crosbie and TCH group managing director Anthony Dinan.
