I haven’t mentioned this before nor have I seen much in the blogosphere about it. But anyway the special Olympics Ireland games are taking place in Belfast at the mo. If any one is in Belfast drop and have a look. And cheer on the competitors. It is a great cause.

Dead right, Simon. When they Special Olympics were on in Dublin, the golf was played at the Portmarnock Links which is a 5 minutes walk from my house. They were very well attended, and my brother actually got to know one of the golfers and is still in contact with him. It’s in great contrast to the manner in which the big names shy away from contact with the fans - but I suppose, given the size of their respective fanbases, that’s also justifiable.
