Dear Oliver,some years back I sent one of my stories to my Uncle Stephen R.I.P,a professor of 40 yrs tenure,fluent in Gaelige,a strict proponent of higher education and the value of continous reading. So naturally I was a mite apprehensive. His reply in brief; Joyce would have been intrigued by my subconcious thoughts ,the philosopher would have been amused by my wanderings,the professor would have drawn red streams of ink across the page, and the local Joe Soap would have said "Jaysus the guy must be lonely!." It now gives me writers licence to re-name 'Townie's' nome de plume as 'Seosamh An Gallunach'. Stephen went on to say 'congratulations' and hoped that someday he would be rushing down to the nearest bookstore. In closing, urged me to go to the liberary and reccomended a couple of authers to read.I think I speak for everyone here, that is a part of our wonderfull podium. That you Mr. Killeen are akin to a warm breeze coming off our atlantic gulf stream, flowing across Clew Bay, thro' the window of our boardroom blowing away the cobwebs and humdrums of what has been a very difficult year and a half past.A hearty WELLCOME on board may your inkwell always be filled, for thers'. gallons of the stuff ins an cofra. Oh!, and by the way how the hell are ya anyways?,an bfuil tu go maith?,goDe mara tata(Donegal),what about ye boy? (Armagh), how's the craic up there in Calgary,& Calamucdubh?.
