Ardal O 'Hanlon was in the Perth Concert Hall last night with his stand- up routine, which consisted of a humourous ramble of obervations about life in Britain and Ireland today.
He strayed in to politics a little bit. David Cameron and Nick Clegg were apparently the shampoo and conditioner of British politics (make of that what you will). Barack Obama was a positive and decisive leader for the whole world, so impressive that he had once seen him reach out and catch a fly in his hand while he was giving a speech. Alex Salmond was a strong leader as well, but he could catch flies with his tongue!! Not a political image that the Nats will encourage, I am sure, but you can see where Ardal is coming from.
Ardal thinks we are also more positive and better adjusted over here than the Irish are, and that we will be better equipped to deal with the upcoming financial problems. "Be positive and persevere" was his message.
So, they you are. Whatever difficulties that lie ahead, we will be all right in the end.......so we will......
