I don’t think I really need to say why I made this track Tune of the Week. Proceeds from this single are going to the help the families of the 96 with legal costs in their fight for justice. YNWA

I thought about this week’s Tune of the Week long and hard. Sometimes music has a place in our lives and a meaning that go deeper than I could ever write here. I remember the afternoon in April 1989, the pictures and news stories that unfolded were just harrowing. 96 people lost their lives that day.
So this week we learned that the Hillsborough disaster was the ‘biggest cover up ever’, the families of the deceased quite rightly are calling for a new inquest.
This week’s Tune of the Week is Gerry and The Pacemakers and You’ll Never Walk Alone.

What a sporting weekend we have in Ireland! The rugby team doing the Grand Slam and winning the championship and triple crown and bernard Dunne winning a World Title – not that I’m a fan of boxing, can’t see why anyone would want to bash the living daylights out of someone else for a living but each to their own!
Damien McGrane, a childhood friend came 3rd in the Medeira Open Golf and Liverpool won 5-0 ! Excellent!
18 Days to the new baseball Season too! Think the Giants may just be in with a chance this year! They have a decent starting rotation!
It was also Mothers Day here so I had a nice lunch with my parents and saw my new niece for the first time. She’s 2 months already – I’m a bad aunt!
