Octopus of Odstock 2,186 Posted February 3 36 minutes ago, The Old Crem said: Odd article. Doesn’t even say who has died. Kieran Cavanagh. Funeral mass was yesterday in Dublin. FFS surely one media outlet will put that. I still think the QO will come via a Daniel O'Donnell interview but a mention in one of the tabloids would do the trick. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was on my last member list last year. “His nickname “Family Man” comes from his role as a bandleader as well as his fathering of 41 children.” Sounds like a real piece of shit human being if you ask good old Sir Creep. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have always thought Last Christmas was a terrible saccharine piece of nonsense. But this, THIS, with the Degrees dancing in a snowglobe to the choon revamped for a house party, is downright terrible. So I thought I'd share it: 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aw man, an absolute legend of late night radio and the generally alternative. Has greatly outlived the predictions made by doctors when he fell from a window and landed himself in a wheelchair.
