The op clearly hasn't affected my dance floor moves with their planted feet and swingy arms. I'm only disappointed that Tony Manero-Raftery got all the glory. Thanks O and Martin.

My parents would both have aneuryisms if I went on a golfing holiday. They light candles every morning hoping I'll take up golf. You're all very welcome down for the Bandon Show, just bring your gaming console with you, we have a nice spot for it here.

As I keep saying, it was supposed to be an encouraging post but I think I've put a ton of people off it for life! Thanks Caroline and Feebee.

Luckily no-one remembers it. Thanks :-) Twas a top night James. A great bunch of people and a wonderful mix too. I think the geek faction was one of the smaller ones. I indistinctly remember slagging off some technical aspect of a Fortune 500 web-site and the person beside said "shields up". Tom, I hit the dance floor earlier than you during the AC/DC slot.

Oops. And they never even put on ABBA like I asked. Emer/Kevin, Orla/Tony, Mary/Kieran/Louise, Pat/Rose all did an awesome job. Kids had a great time in all the houses even if Fionn the one-year-old left Bray in a girls top three sizes too small for him :-) Oh balls, was I? Oops. And they never even put on ABBA like I asked.

In bed by midnight my hole! You were talking to me and a few others around then and heading off for more dancing as far as I remember! It was GOOD drunken waffling though! Congrats on the award, lovely to meet you and I hope the various relatives held on to the kids for a while today to give you a chance to recover! Snort!
