Salute to a true hero and legend

WHEN I landed in Kerry airport last Friday, the plan was to turn left for Killarney and home.

But instead I pointed the car right towards the N21 and the Curragh of Kildare.

Like most people I was sad to hear of the death of the great Dermot Earley, a hero and legend of our time. Word of his illness had spread far and wide and when the news arrived, we were shocked and saddened.
