Sad news my man!! I can only say we will miss your smiling face and bawdy jokes at ODowds. Safe trip home, and hopefully we’ll see you once or twice more before you head out!!

Mate,
you’ve been a complete breath of fresh air - I so enjoy our gig nite conversations at O’Dowd’s and I hope for a few more before you go. It’s easy to lose perspective, and you have a knack for cutting thru’ the BS both on and off the page. You’re a bugger for leaving, and I’ll miss you. Next pint’s on me mate.
See ya soon.

Thanks Kelly and Happy.

Karen, there is no mention (I hope) of ******* anywhere on this site, so there won\’t be an answer to that question on Irish KC either.

Kevin, alas it is so. Ironically though, this does increase the likelihood of me visiting Arkansas.

DMC, thanks. Some good things happened here too.

Zeta, well I never did fit in to those Tuesday nights, and you know yourself now what leaving your country means. Thanks

Níor cheap mé go raibh siad, a Phrimal, ach go raibh míle maith agat

Elizabeth, thank you but this is not a time for parties. There will be ample opportunity for goodbyes. There will not be a party.

I can’t believe it. When are you returning? Shall we have a going away party? I say yes.

Bhuel, a KC. Sa deireadh, ní raibh ‘na cnoic i bhfad uainn’ comh glas mar a cheaptar.

Nil faic eile a rá ach fáilte romhat abhaile. Tá an citeal ag fiuchadh.

You once told me that after you leave your country and move somewhere else you belong everywhere and fit nowhere. I’ll keep reading to see how going back forward works out for you, and next time I’m in Ireland I’ll buy you a pint and see…. Cheers!

Wishing you the very best in the right place to be.
Ireland has soul. Ireland has pavement people walk on.
I know it’s a better place than ever and it will welcome
you home with open arms. I’d follow if I could.
Practice your “like”, “rrright”, “you know”.
Good things happen to those with the guts to return.
You’ll prove that soon.
