What now for sound of summer Sundays?

I HAD the privilege last week of attending one of the most enjoyable events in quite some time. The occasion was a tribute night organised by Raidió na Gaeltachta to honour the incomparable Mícheál O Muircheartaigh.

Guests came from far and wide to share their yarns, their thoughts and their memories of a lifetime’sachievement in broadcasting.

It was a night of reflection and of genuine warmth where all contributors spoke eloquently of the Dún Síon man’s contribution to Irish life. But I believe the person who best captured the mood of the night was a former colleague of Mícheál’s in Nuacht RTÉ, Pádraig O Gaora.
