“Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm This Sunday on C103

We thank Presenter, John Greene for advance information regarding this Sunday evening’s programme on C103.  (S.R.)

This week on ‘Where the road takes me’, John Greene brings you the concluding story of a war of Independence veteran, greyhound enthusiast, Gaelic footballer, renowned character and medical doctor.

Dr. Eugene Callanan was all of these, with many more descriptive adjectives required to totally sum up this unique man.

Coming up in the concluding programme…………..

In County Offaly we discover the Callanan connection to one of the greatest greyhounds of all time.

More reflections on a wonderful father-figure from the doctor’s daughters Catherine and Margaret.

And Diarmuid Begley remembers when his father’s dog had the last laugh, or should that be ‘BARK’, at the good doctor’s expense. [read more …] ““Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm This Sunday on C103″
