The characters of Cork

[Yermon]

Lennon was his name. I can't remember the GP's name. We just knew him as the Doc. Both RIP now.

Yeah - it was indeed Lennon who was his campaign manager. He was a civil engineer I think.

I remember being in his company one night until he started coming out with fiercely racist comments

My pal and I told him shut up and the bar man chimed in with “They shot the wrong John Lennon”

Apparently there was at least one solicitor in the Bernie backing team.
They wanted to get at Bernard Allen who was very vocal with his criticism of the legal profession in Cork.

They ran him in the same ward.

Cashman's got badly stung. It took awhile before they realised that he had a professional political setup behind. They took alot of money at 50/1 before they sussed it.

He had an elction parade on Patrick Street and was elected comfortably.

Tell yo better than that
When he was in San Francisco he was promised lots of Mulah for Cork from some Jewish lady mayor/ politician - never materialised
Bernie and your man made a bee line with tv on tow to collect sane promised bobs,
All planes from your wan for the Irish vote,
She called the FBI in, ructions

How long has bishop Buckley been bishop ?

He stood down about 10 years ago. He's Bishop emeritus now or something. Just loves the funerals he does.

The real Bishop is a younger fella who is unpopular with the teachers AFAIK

Bishop Buckley was great bit of stuff. Had a keen interest in basketball in the 80’s in cork. I remember the only thing was he was incredibly hard to understand!

My husband used to train out in the farm in Bishopstown, and Bishop Buckley would often be out there. They had the same conversation a few times a week for years

Buckley- You're very fast.
Husband- I am, Bishop.
