A really good day.

This morning I managed buy my wife a cheap car at the car auctions.

This afternoon my cardiologist discharged me and said my condition was as stable as he could achieve.

But what has given me most joy has been a series of PMs from Ard Mhacha - we've been discussing Patrick Kavanagh. I have got really interested in On Raglan Road after hearing a Pete Rowan version of the song on Ard's website.

Its really opened up a song   for me that I've never liked much previously - having heard all the versions that people regularly go doolally about (Luke Kelly, Ronnie Drew, etc). I'm just loving my life working on this great song.

I wish you all such good days
