Careful what you Google
What do you think of those online maps? I think they’re overrated frankly. I find their lack of detail frustrating. Most modern news organisations have Sat Nav systems, I only have a pocket in which to put a Sat Nav system. Old school? Well, I was kinda hoping those days were over. So was Zelda. Zelda’s saying ‘hell yes’ here.

Synchronise Watches
A live link up! Spent the morning attempting to discover the time zone which Cork inhabits in relation to the time zone which the 25/7 Corporation inhabits and to make the appropriate adjustments so the broadcast will be on the button, just after the sports news and before the weather. Don’t want to tell the time by the sun again, do we Zelda. (She’s so shaking her head).

Message for catering.
If you’re reading this, I’d like a super size burger with everything on it and fries and a gallon of coke, send it out as soon as you can. In fact, send extra ones, frozen if need be.

On Families

Physically in my blood as it happens as my mother nicked herself getting out the car that night and got blood poisoning which affected my early development. God bless mother. And bless her for telling that story at family gatherings, graduation ceremonies, etc. etc.

While we have a moment.
Been around the block? I’ll say. Ever tell you about the time I covered a small war? Well it was more of a neighbourhood war, really. A fracas. A small dispute. A quarrel between family. I got an interview with the dad. He pushed the camera. Gave you a black eye didn’t it, Zelda, the eye piece, you know, got shoved into the socket. Still, the piece was shown on 6 different networks. I see the same potential in this Cork Report, you know? If we can just...

Tips from a pro
The key is trying to find the question that a famous film director, or actor, has never ever heard before. But not to be too prying or oily. Try finding a totally original question yourself. It’s not so damn easy is it? Think anyone can put on a tux and deliver? God, the arrogance of some people.
