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

We thank Presenter, John Greene for advance information on this Sunday evening’s programme – 12th Sept. 2021 at 7pm on C103.  (S.R.)

Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 12th Sept.

This week on ‘Where the road takes me’, John Greene continues the Tale of three Norries.

In Programme two we meet songwriter John Murphy who was asked to write a number of songs for a CD to commemorate the burning of Cork City in December of 1920.

Although a launch and promotional events were out of the question because of Covid-19, the CD has almost sold itself.

Only seventy copies remain, with all proceeds going to ‘Alana’s Butterfly Wings’ 

Like the other two Norries, John has a story to tell which is unrelated to music.

Born in the UK, John was brought to Ireland for adoption.  He relates his story articulately, speaking about his dysfunctional and unfit adoptive parents in Cork.

Living the life of a loner as a child, without love, care and affection, John still finds difficulty in socialising.  Meeting his birth-mother for the first time and benefiting from her company for two years before her death, is a part of his story told emotionally.

Day Trip to Spike Island on Tues. 21st Sept. 2021

The Clonbanin Ambush Centenary Commemoration  Committee

                     wishes to announce the following dates of importance:                                  Tuesday 21st September. A day trip to Spike Island, including a seat on a Luxury Coach, with reclining seats, arm-rests, head rests, plenty air-conditioning and ample leg room, total comfort guaranteed.

  • Kealy’s Coach will pick at the following places:        Derrinagree Church 08. 30am.  Dromagh Church 08.40 am    ……     Kanturk Church 09.00am Mallow Race Course 09.30am.                        
  • The day will consist of Coach tour to Cobh, then on to the 11 00am Ferry to Spike Island, where we will be met off the Ferry by our appointed professional Guide, followed by a 40/45 minute guided, historical and informative tour, a very comprehensive and detailed account of the War of Independence.
  • Originally the site of a monastic settlement, the island is dominated by an 18th-century star fort named Fort Mitchel. The island’s strategic location within the harbour meant it was used at times for defence and as a prison.

The military Gun Park alone has over a dozen exhibits used in coastal defence spanning over 300 years of warfare, as well as a recreation of the Battery Observation Post which would have targeted the guns on Spike Island.  Plus, many more items of interest including military transport and smaller arms.   It is much loved by military enthusiasts and anyone with an interest in the War of Independence. It has plenty toilet and rest-rooms facilities. A Café for refreshments.

The return journey will be via Mallow with a stop-over at the Arches Bar & Restaurant where we will enjoy a 3-course meal.   Main Course, Dessert   and   Tea / Coffee.

Total cost Including Coach, Ferry, Guided Tour and Meal  :   €40.    Pints, Wine and Drinks at the table are extra at your own expense.                                              

All names and monies will have to be submitted and paid up-front before Tuesday 14th September 2021 with no cancellations accepted, because the booking will only be finalized with Spike Island when paid in advance.  

Seats are limited and will be on a first come first served basis. The Coach is almost full, with just a few seats left.    This is a final reminder.                      

In accordance with H.S.E guidelines, masks will have to be worn on the coach and on the ferry.                                   

The other date to put in your Diary is October 9th 2021…..our Centenary Commemoration Celebration day, more about that later.                                                                                                         Any further queries contact    (086/8403914)     (087/ 8350255)           (087 / 9832388)                      (097 / 6251056)

We thank Charlie Drake for this wonderfully detailed programme.  (S.R.)

We thank Presenter, John Greene for advance information on this Sunday evening’s programme – 5th Sept. 2021 at 7pm on C103.  (S.R.)

Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 5th Sept.

‘The tale of three Norries’ is a series beginning on ‘Where the road takes me’ this Sunday evening.

Basing himself in the North-Mon CBS School, John Greene meets three friends, all of whom attended the school.  All three are Norries to the core, all three are involved in music and all three have an interesting story to tell – not all of which involves music. 

In programme one, we meet singer-songwriter John Neville one of the co-founders of the Cork band North Cregg.

John is now pursuing a solo career and has recorded a song about Sunvalley Drive, where he grew up and ‘The Wobbling Man’, a song about his alcoholic father.

We are also joined by College Lecturer and New York Times opinion writer Jennifer Finney Boylan.

Boylan talks about her time at UCC and how ‘The Wobbling Man’ helped her enormously to take the final steps in her transformation from male to Transgender. [read more …] ““Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103″

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

We thank Presenter, John Greene for advance information on this Sunday evening’s programme – 29th August 2021 at 7pm on C103.  (S.R.)

Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 29th August

Recorded a year before his death and with promises of plenty more in the reserve, this was in fact the last of many recordings with John O’Leary in Cobh.  John passed away last April at the age of 98. 

This week there are tales of a visit to Fatima with a Margaret Thatcher connection.

There’s a tale of Margaret Thatcher and her bitter battle with the Yorkshire Miners.  There’s Margaret Thatcher and the Hunger Strikers and Margaret Thatcher and her Kenmare roots.

And the mood is sombre, as John recalls losing three colleagues and friends in tragic circumstanses,  from his days in an Garda Síochána.  [read more …] ““Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103″

Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 22nd August

Back by popular demand is a well worn cliché, but it’s so appropriate for this week’s edition of ‘Where the road takes me’.

Listeners to the programme just can’t get enough of John O’Leary who passed away earlier this year at the age of 98.

Originally from Rathbarry, but living in Cobh, John was a member of an Garda Siochana from 1942 to 1955, all of which was spent in Dublin. 

This week we go on the beat with John to meet Brendan Behan, Margaret Pearse, Boxing Cyclone the reclusive Bill Warren and partying with the wonderful trading ladies of Moore Street.

Dublin wit and characters, through the eyes of a Cork Garda. [read more …] ““Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103″

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

We thank Presenter, John Greene for advance information on this Sunday evening’s programme – 15th August 2021 at 7pm on C103.  (S.R.)

Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 15th August

On ‘Where the road takes me’ this week, John Greene concludes the story of Joe Mac.  The former drummer, singer and comedian is the only surviving member of the Dixies Showband following the death of Seán Lucey on July 28th last.

Now eighty five years of age and sixty seven years in show business, it hasn’t been all laughs.

In 1981, tragedy strikes the family when Joe and Anne’s son Aidan and his wife Linda are killed in a road collision. 

And……

       Why Brendan O’Brien’s electrocution in the Stardust Ballroom in Cork, was not the beginning of the lead-singer’s demise. [read more …] ““Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103″
