Writes books, wrangles children
Writing my last column for the Business Post this weekend. Thank you to everyone who has gotten in contact about my writing over the past two and a bit years. It's been a pleasure. Ending with a tale of grief, memories, and the robin(s) following me around.

Donal Burke lifts the Tommy Moore Cup last Sunday for Na Fianna. ‘There’s something about the values held there, and I think at a lot of GAA clubs, that feels important, especially when raising kids’. Picture: INPHO

Myself and Himself making increasingly incorrect and desperate "special guests" guesses. Sheamus the wrestler? NOPE. Nathan Carter? NOPE. RTE are making a show of us.
