My Tribute To Prince RIP 21st April 2016

I have just heard the tragic news regarding the untimely death of legendary musician Prince. The outpouring of grief on Twitter & Facebook is reminiscent of the shock that shook us all when David Bowie passed earlier this year. Prince was different in many aspects including his illusive attitude towards the media.

My brother Edwin introduced me to his music. Prince had so many hits and was an influence to so many bands and artists. His music even crossed over into Rap & Dance when MC Hammer used a sample of "When Doves Cry" on his jam "Pray".

My heart is hurting but we all have the comfort knowing that we were blessed to have been part of his journey.

​RIP Prince, Symbol, Purple Prince....

Joining RTE Sport for Rio 2016

I am delighted to announce I am joining RTE Television Sport for it's Olympic coverage. I will be working as a commentator for the period of the games. When I worked on the London 2012 games I was so impressed with the organisation within RTE. One person who I will miss is Bill O'Herlihy. I met him in the canteen on my first day in RTE four years ago. He asked me what my speciality subject was and I said ''Table Tennis'' and he giggled and said ''Only Protestants'' play that:) That was Bill, no holding back and always having a laugh.

He was very helpful to me during London 2012 and the real experienced guys and gals are the ones to learn from.

I kick off in RTE early August and I am looking forward to it.

Sport and the Olympics are a special event and to be involved in it with the State broadcaster is an immense pleasure.
