Me Waffling On At The Eleventh Hour

DateTuesday, July 3, 2007 at 03:56PM

If any of you would like to avoid hearing me waffling on yet again about how great me and my book are, then don't tune into The Eleventh Hour tonight at 11pm on Ireland's RTÉ Radio 1. Páraic Breathnach,1026334-733499-thumbnail.jpg
Páraic Breathnach... a leather-skirt wearing monster of a man from Connemara, will be interrogating me for twenty or thirty minutes, at the end of which I hope he will give me the sound thrashing I deserve.

No doubt the whole distasteful event will be archived by RTÉ, in a spirit of public service, and made available for the discouragement of others. 1026334-733500-thumbnail.jpg
