Remembering Luke Kelly, today,on his 40th anniversary.
This was Luke Kellys last performance. His voice and memory had deteriorated badly but he belted out this song with as much heart as possible.
The opening & closing verse:
"I must away now, I can no longer tarry,
This morning's tempest I have to cross,
I must be guided without a stumble,
Into the arms I love the most"
If you listen carefully as the last note dies out, you'll hear Ronnie Drew softly say..."Good man Luke".

Labour TD @AodhanORiordain says "every time the minister gets an opportunity ... to speak about this issue she only makes things worse". He says it's clear Minister for Education @NormaFoleyTD1 has lost control of the situation with regards to special needs education
So here is Angela Merkel pleading for Germans to accept an early start to the school holidays in order to avoid illness and death among older people in January. Irish teachers were subjected to dogs’ abuse for suggesting the same thing. Sadly, we will be proved right. #edchatie
