 You did, you made a bad job of that, wanna get over that? I didn't make a bad job of it, you're making an enemy, you know? No, no, no, no, you should cut your own beard and don't get old people to cut it for you. What are you saying now? Tell the truth, who cuts your beard? Are you here tomorrow for the open day? Cut your tongue, who cuts your beard? Who drums it? Aseline. There you go. She missed a bit. I get a slap the next day. I wouldn't cross her, it's better you do me. You're being warned. Are you here tomorrow? I'm gonna be here tomorrow. In the morning time, I'm gonna hang around. I wanna stay around for the crack. Because you know what happens, right? I go home and then I tune into Highland Radio. I'm thinking, oh God, I wish I was there, because this seems where the party is. Do you know how I feel I'm missing out? So I don't wanna miss out this year. Why do you speak like Billy Connolly? I don't know why. Honestly, don't know. I don't know, I'm gonna hold around. I don't know what I'm gonna do, I don't know. I love Billy Connolly. I'd love to see them live, I think. Right, thanks for that, Lee. Well, we're going out. See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. You might even come on my show tomorrow, would you? I will, surely. She's still be here. Would you have me? 100%. Right, then. All right, see you soon, Lee. Good man, thanks, Greg. Lee, back with you tomorrow morning at 6.30. Just to remind you, if you're coming up for the open day, Santa's gonna be here, and now you've heard exclusively the big man himself, Lee Gooch. Listen, Lee Gooch is gonna be here. All right, so let's get a news update. It's over to Donal Kavana. Good morning, Donal. Thank you, Greg. Good morning. The Requiem Mass of Private Sean Rooney, the young Irish soldier killed while peacekeeping in Lebanon last week is getting underway in Don Dock about now. After that, his remains will be brought to Newton Cunningham in Donegal for a burial ceremony at which the 24-year-old will be given full military honors, including an escort of 30 people and a firing party. President Michael D. Higgins is expected to attend. TD and former Army Ranger Cahill Berry says it's an opportunity to reflect on the sacrifice made by private Rooney and other soldiers. Most people in the public would have seen the photograph of Private Rooney in his blue beret, and you know about the cut from by his pastor that he was just built to join the Army. And I'm just kind of just how inadequate any words of mine would be for the family. But hopefully, in the number of years time, perhaps they might derive some comfort from the fact that at least he passed away during the job he loved. Well, the main letter, Kenny Derry Road, will be closed for a time this afternoon between the entrance to Newton Cunningham Main Street and the junction with the R237 at Deer Park. Diversions in place through Newton Cunningham Village. They'll be in place between half past 12 and 4 o'clock. More details on our website, HighlandRadio.com. Small businesses say high costs are a barrier to bringing in more sustainable practices. However, a new survey by Irish Water also found 14% of small firms plan to invest in ways to save water and increase waste recycling in the coming year. The research carried out in partnership with ISME also highlights new conservation projects being run by the National Water Utility. Business Operations Manager with Irish Water, Geoffrey Burke says taking steps to save water can save businesses money in the long run. We have a first of its kind water stewardship program, which is a comprehensive training program helps organizations lower the water use, but at the same time has a double benefit reducing operating costs and protecting the environment. And we recently just launched our annual certification scheme and this enables any company shown commitment to water stewardship to join the award-winning network of leading firms across the country with access to training events, research opportunities and best practice tools. Meanwhile, Irish Water hope an issue at the Arts Beg treatment plant in Gortha Hork where you're resolved within the hour and that an issue at Windy Hall in Latter Kenny will be resolved very shortly in both cases. They say it'll take two to three hours for services to return to normal. And Ukraine's president has told US politicians his country will never surrender to Russia. America is providing service to air missiles and more than a billion dollars in support to Ukraine. Vladimir Zelensky says the money is not charity, but an investment addressing Congress in person on his first foreign trip since the war began. He also spoke of a candle at Christmas for millions in Ukraine. Not because it's more romantic now, but because there will be no electricity. Even if there is no electricity, the light of our faith in ourselves will not be put out. A cloudy start today with isolated drizzle patches, sunny spells and occasional showers developing through the morning. Top temperatures today, seven or eight degrees Celsius in a light breeze. And that's how in video news, we're back with news again at 10 o'clock. Millionaire Raffle from the National Lottery is back.

It could be a carer, it could be the postman, it could be your mom, dad, your sister, your brother. Maybe you want to come on and tell them how much they mean to you. And hopefully we'll have a wee prize for them. And maybe even you could be in the hat to win that 100-year-old hamper from Gilday's Farm Butcher. So get your phone out. 086625,000, that's the WhatsApp and text number.

A, tell us your happy Christmas memory. Or B, if you want to say a special hello to someone that's important in your life. As I say, you know the type of people it could be. Just someone that made a difference to you in 2022. We'd like to share that story with the wider Northwest public and the thousands and thousands of people, by the way, that listen online and watch online from all over the world to lots of Donegal people. Tell us where you are.

But we know that someone's going to win that 100-euro hamper from Gilday's Butchers in the Old Town Road Letter Kenny. It's got a bone and roll turkey joint, a gammon and a joint of beef. So, that covers St. Stephen's Day as well. And you can still order your joint for Christmas with them. So, come and share your favourite Christmas memories with us or pay tribute.

We are going to give you a chance to, if you win, if you get the answer correctly, to get a ticket into our car draw. But you'll also be in, you'll be one of four. It could be one of three, actually, if we don't get a winner today. But one of four, if I'm correct. No, we've had two winners. So, you'd be one of three. Who could win that call tomorrow? Here's that sound bite for you, by the way. If you want to get your phones out. But, no, the reviews for this are... And I am counting the hours. All right, that's Michael Leady from That's Entertainment on a Friday. What's the missing word? But, no, the reviews for this are... And I am counting the hours. You know, sometimes I want to play that game and it's wrong answers only. But, anyway, text your correct answer, your name and where you're from, to 08 660 25000. Right, OK. We've got loads of music and loads of fun and entertainment for you today. But we'll run through the front of and inside the newspapers. Let's start with the Chicano Tribune. Independent councillor Michael McBride has told the Tribune that it is clear to him that the government has no plans to put modular homes on the agenda to address the serious accommodation crisis facing families in Mike-infected homes. Councillor McBride said it didn't require, last Friday, special council meeting to confirm that position because attempts by himself and other councillors over the past year to push the case for modular homes had been met with a wall of silence. And what we know so far is that the council themselves are saying that we don't have the capacity to do this. And then we heard from that Micah conference. It's not Micah, you know what I mean, the defective concrete, but Micah's become the word that is more synonymous with it. But we know the problem is much greater than Micah. That the government has no plans for it either. Well, there you go. On to the Donegal news. And the heartbroken father of Private Sean Rooney has described his son as his best buddy ahead of his funeral today. The 24-year-old peacekeeper from Newtown Cunningham was killed on active service on Wednesday last when his convoy came under attack by an armed group during a routine journey to Baruch Airport. Private Rooney of the 27th Infantry Battalion, Aitken Barracks Dundalk was serving as part of the UN peacekeeping mission in Lebanon. And his funeral and burial takes place today. And all we can do at this point is just send all our love and as much and hopefully family get as much strength as they possibly can ahead of what is just an impossibly difficult day. I'm thinking on his partner, his friends. And I think everyone involved, not just in the army, but the emergency services as well. There's a brotherhood there, a kinship, so to speak. And we just hope to get through today OK. On to the Donegal Democrat pharmacies throughout Donegal are experiencing a shortage in the supply of various medicines. They are at the cold face as patients demand for antibiotics to treat winter infection surges. But the supplies of penicillin are not meeting demand. It would appear that a number of key antibiotics that they dispense on a daily basis, such as amoxicillin. And, well, I can't pronounce. I'm not even going to try. Let's try, actually, phenoxymethyl. Well, they're running short or deliveries are being delayed. We've seen this in Britain, by the way. There's a massive shortage of antibiotics over there. It's very difficult for us as pharmacists in order to try and provide a good service for the public when we're getting prescriptions and we can't fulfil the needs, said pharmacist Francis Boner of Boner's Pharmacy in Ballet Buffet. And there's a lot of stuff going around. A lot of people with a dry cough, too. I was just chatting to one of the crew there, this harsh dry cough that a lot of people seem to have at the moment. On to the Irish Independent now. And men earn, on average, 29% more than women at the main employer group Ibeck. Its first mandatory gender pay gap report has shown. So this is a business group that speaks on behalf of businesses and it itself has a huge pay gap there. The report says the earnings difference reflects the distribution of gender across the organisation, which includes a large portion of women in lower and middle earning groups. It says there is a 92% concentration of females in admin roles. There are a 43% average bonus gender pay gap and an average 38% gender pay gap among temporary employees. Why in this day and age are women earning less than men? Oh wait, 60, 25,000 if you have an answer to that one. The Irish Times, the government unveiled its latest climate action plan yesterday, making fresh commitments to extend renewable energy, expand public transport and reduce private car use to reduce our insert greenhouse gas emissions. But it stopped short of identifying specific measures that it would take promising that a schedule of policy actions which would achieve the demanded targets now set down in law would be published in the new year. This sounds very much to me like those meetings that they have every year where they all meet up and they'll fly in in the private jets of course. So they've got the air conditioning on in full blast, the COP 27, whatever it was. And they talk and they talk and they say, yes, okay, this is what we're going to do. And then you all head home and absolutely nothing is done. So we got no detail of what the government plans to do or what it plans or how it plans to do it. At a press conference at Lens to House Minister for Climate Action and Transport, Ayman Ryan strongly suggested that car parking in urban centres would be heavily curtailed to push people away from cars and onto public transport. Though we acknowledge that substantial improvements in public transport would be needed saying that is needed to be super fast. Come here, you know, like, how can they have a press conference and they've got nothing to announce? I don't understand that. The Irish Daily Mail of Radcar said he would resign as a member of Finigale if the party entered into coalition with Sinn Féin. The Taoiseach says in a TV interview to be aired tonight, I'd be totally against it. I could not lead my party into coalition with Sinn Féin when asked if he would resign as Finigale leader over the matter. Mr. Radcar goes further and responds, I'd resign as a member. The interview features in the second instalment of the two-part TV documentary, Two Drives, presented by Sean O'Rourke, which aired tonight on RT1 at 5 past 10. It's a small pool here, isn't it, really, in terms of who they can get on to interview on the national TV stations when you think about it? Because, I mean, Leo Radcar's on the radio every single day. But anyway, if you want a full hour of him, you can get it with Sean O'Rourke tonight. Happy Holy Thursday to you. The Irish Farmers Journal, beef and dairy farmers are being pushed into reducing cattle numbers or quitting livestock production completely by the latest climate action plan. The government's action plan for 23 and beyond includes the dairy and suckler cow-call scheme recommended by the Food Vision Report, but without any detail of the compensation package needed to fund them. Let's head to the tabloids now. Well, that's a tabloid. You know what I mean, the traditional red tops. Irish Daily Star, the High Court has ruled that jailed teacher Enoch Burke should be released from Mount Joy Prison so that he can return home for Christmas. In his ruling, Mr. Justice Brown or Moore said that this was one of those rare cases where a coercive imprisonment should stop for the moment, even though Mr. Burke has not purged his contempt. Similar orders had been made in other cases where persons who had spent a period in prison over their failure to obey court orders were released without purging their contempt. The judge delivered his ruling on the matter yesterday evening after he considered brief submissions regarding a proposal that the teacher be released from prison from both Mr. Burke and from lawyers on behalf of his employer, Wilson's Hospital School, in County West Mead. So, I presume he will see that as a victory in that he did not purge his contempt and yet now he is going to be a free man. On to the Irish Daily Star now and where are we? Yeah, not good news from the hospitals. We know the story anyway, but new figures show this year was the worst on record for hospital overcrowding and nurses now fear ED units are not safe. The highest ever annual total of patients without a hospital bed was announced yesterday by the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation and on a certainly a much lighter note, if you're a fan of line of duty, well, hit cop drama line of duties returning to deliver the explosive climax tonight, fans in the last series stars Adrian Dunbar, Vicki McClure and Martin Compton are on board for the three-part BBC One special, a TV insider said there's a strong feeling that there was unfinished business. Certainly was a strong feeling of that amongst fans. Right, just to remind you that we've got loads of stuff to give away today. We'll be as generous as we possibly can. We've a 100-year-old hamper from Gilday's Farm Butchers, and we just want you to share your Christmas memory with us, your favourite Christmas memory from your childhood, something that happened, your cooking disasters. We all build up to this. Can you imagine, and you pull it out, the Turkish turkeys rotten or raw or something? I certainly have some memory of that from my childhood. It's stunk, I think to recall. Anyway, I won't discuss to you with it. But anyway, if you want to tell us your Christmas disasters, cooking disasters, your favourite Christmas memories from your childhood, from last year, whenever, or if you want to say hello to someone who's very special to you and tell us why they're special, we'll then get in touch with us. Right, we got a message in from Chloe Borland, a teacher of music and religious education at Mulroy College. And she tells us that our school choir recently recorded Lighter Candle on this silent night. It's by Glenda E. Franklin for the Choirs for Christmas Competition. The talented Mulroy College choir consists of 60 students from first year to sixth year who are divided into a junior and senior choir. The choir consists of both music students and non-music students who regularly rehearse for various events in school and in the local community. Now, the school and local communities have faced much tragedy this year, so the school choir performed and recorded this beautiful song inspired by Silent Night as it reminds them of their dear friends and loved ones who they have lost this year. The song also helps the school children and teachers to feel a sense of joy and comfort upon reflection of their cherished memories. We hope they say that this song brings comfort, hope, love and peace to all in our school and local communities this Christmas. We carry you with us always, wherever we go. Well done, Mulroy College Choir. 60 students there, and thanks to Chloe for recording that and sending it through to us. I hope you enjoyed that. Righty-o, let us take a break.

For all your home heating needs, oil, gas and solid fuels, National Fuels, Pierce Road, Letter Kenny, 9137400. National Fuels, bringing you the time at... It's 9.25. We say good morning now to three members of the group and or gentlemen, good morning to you. Morning, Greg. How's it going? The very best. All's good now. Great stuff. It's good to have you on the show. We're speaking and it's Tom McHugh, sorry. German, McGee, Dean Conahan and Declan. Gagan, is it or Gahan? Gahan. Gahan. Right, I'll go right the second time. Right, OK, so we're talking to three of the group in the context of a new song and... Well, it's not a new song. It's a cover of a song and a new music video. So who wants to tell us a bit about it? You want it? Your idea, then? Dean, come on. Someone's going to have to... Tear for Fears, Mad World, more like the Gary Jules version. And we decided to put, like, an Irish Celtic twist on it, along with our harmonies as well. Then when we had the song completed, then we decided to do a fundraiser for the Northwest Simon community and any homelessness. And is there a particular reason why you chose that charity? I mean, obviously, you know, the housing crisis and the issue of homelessness we're seeing record figures now. I suppose it's a case of trying to support that small group of people that are there for those who don't have a home. We'd also seen... I think it was at the night or the night after we shot the video, the young girl had died in Dublin. So, Tom had kind of read that and text into the group to say, maybe we could do it on behalf of the Simon community up here in the Northwest, you know? We'd just make it for granted. Like, you never think you could end up someday without a roof over your head. 100%. I know exactly what we're on about. And it can be something as simple as, you know, even say, your heating runs out. And you realise how quickly it goes cold inside, you know? And then you start to imagine, can you imagine if you didn't even have the luxury of the four walls even without heat? Tell us a bit about the band, if you don't mind. The band's kind of a... Everybody has a role in the band. So, like, Tom has this knowledge of Irish music and old Irish music that none of the rest of us have. But it's his job, if he knows those songs, he brings them to us. Dean can arrange harmonies like nobody else we know. So, like, for Mad World, you'd heard Mad World out and about. Mm-hmm. And in the back of his head, he's thinking, oh, I could put some cool harmonies to that. So, we all journeyed down to Dean's house and he played us some harmonies on the piano. And that was kind of why we ended up picking that. I don't think any of us would have ever thought to do that, but something was tickling the back of Dean's head when he heard it. Yeah, and there has to be a bit of trust amongst each other too, then, doesn't there, because there's these clear roles and, you know, what might seem like a leap of faith. You have to go for it and wait to see what the finished product's like. Absolutely, yeah. I think I actually kind of shot it down at first. I didn't believe in it at all. That's a terrible idea, Dean. And he's like, no, listen, he played it on the piano and it was like, oh, yeah, it's actually really, really cool. How was your 2022 for years? Actually, really good. We started in 2020. It was kind of a, you see, Tom and Declan were duo, me and Dean were duo. And then middle of lockdown, we were like, glad's most restrictions left, we should make a video together. So we only got like a video a year for the first two years. Everything, everyone has their own thing going on. And then this year, we've doubled that record with two videos. So maybe we could double that again in 2023, but no, it was really good. And I think as a group, we got a lot of, we got a lot of work done together like so. Yeah. And what was the thousandth one? Is it, you know, traditional Irish music in a new way? Or how do you hate asking musicians to frame their work? Because, you know, the answer is always the same. It's hard to, you don't necessarily want to be pigeonholed or it can't be hard to define. But what do you want to be achieving with your art? Well, we didn't really set out to be like down the Irish music route. We suppose we started off with the oil triangle, but we're going to influence from all genres, you know? And that's what we intend doing. We intend touching on a few different genres now going forward, like, you know, but definitely the Irish music would be a base first, like, you know? Yeah. And in terms of gigging in 2023, what's the hopes? We'd love to, at the minute now, we are working on putting together like a theatre show. So we would love to bring it down that avenue, you know? We, all of us in our own different capacities do gigs absolutely everywhere and for every kind of an event. But as a group as a whole, we'd love to build out. We're actually going and booking out a place for a couple of days in January to build the show properly and take all the ideas that we have and hopefully get the best part of two hours, if not two hours or more. And I've seen them before with the idea of being not that there's anything wrong with sort of an ad-hot gig, but that you're actually presenting a show and you say, right, this is our hour and a half or two hours. As I say, I've seen that and it's a cool experience because users, artists then get to sort of have a flow through it or there's more meaning to it or even if you wanted to tell a story or whatever journey you want to take the audience on. Exactly, I am. For us, we're really lucky. Like, the videos have been kind of, as you said, Irish influence, but the four of us have kind of like... That's a good name for a band, if you ever want to change it. What's that? The four of us, it's a good name for a band, if you ever want to change it. I think a band. I think it's copyrighted. Yeah. Like, that's how I come up for the name of this show. Do you know, I can imagine them sitting around going, well, there's four of us. There we have it. Our show is like, it's on between nine and noon. Yeah, there's the name. Right, OK, well, we're going to listen to Mad World. And I've seen some of the words that you wrote and how you've sort of gently tried to encourage people to donate to it. And we really hope to do. This is for the Northwest Simon community to prevent homelessness. And will we go via your Facebook page? We'll share it on our socials as well. But where is the best place for people? If you have a listen to this and they want to donate, where would you direct them to? Our Facebook and Instagram. Perfect. Anore, O-N-O-F-O-D-I-R. Anore official on Facebook and Instagram. All right, well done. There for the donation thing as well. All our posts over the last couple of days have a direct link for donations. Super stuff. Well, listen, it's been lovely chatting to you. I'd be really envious of you as musicians. You know, you've got great, you have great fun, I would say. It's hard work, but you know, you get to go out and perform and be creative and it must be a wonderful gift to have. Continue success. I hope you have a great 2023. I'm sure you will. And we're going to play your song now. But thanks so much for joining us, lads. I really appreciate it. Thank you. All right, take care. Bye-bye. Happy Christmas. And let's just say happy and prosperous 2023. Right, that's Anore, Tom McHugh, German McGee, Dean Conahan and Declan Gohan. And we were just speaking to Tom, German and Dean. And this is their version of Mad World. All around me are familiar faces. Worn out places, worn out faces. Bright and early for the daily races going. And their tears are filling up their glasses. No expression, no expression. At my head, I want to drown my sorrows. No tomb and I find it kind of funny. The dreams in which I'm dying are them. I find it hard to tell you how to take. When people run in circles, it's a very... That's Anore and Mad World. And I like that. I think it's better than the original. Fair play to the lads at Anore. If you want to go and watch the video for that, you can check out their socials, O-N-O-I-R. And they've released that track and made a video for the Northwest at Simon Community Preventing Homelessness. And the links to which are on their social medias. Hi, Highland. Is there an issue with your website this morning? Unfortunately, there is. It's not internal here. It's external. But the teams are working on it. And hopefully, that will be restored very, very soon. Could you please play a happy birthday to my fiance, Paul Kelly and Gaddy Duff-Klan-Manny. We're engaged four years today. Love Elaine.

And it can be to thank anyone too. Maybe there's unsung heroes out there that need a mention and it would be useful for them 08, 6, 60, 25,000. Some memories here. Tracy's in Chrysler. Making Christmas pudding using my late Granny's recipe. I use her silver spoon and she used to make them with the smells of the pudding steam brings back such beautiful memories. And do you know what? The fact that you're using her spoon as well makes that extra special. That's a lovely memory, Tracy. It's bittersweet, isn't it? Because you're remembering your Granny, but at the same time it also reminds you that she's no longer with you. So it's one of those mixed emotions. And I'm glad that you have a specific spoon because I have a specific wooden spoon. And it's the only thing I cook with. Hi, my Christmas memory is one of me and my brother in our Granny's house in the early 90s for dinner. We always loved getting a spoon full of the sweet cream from the top of our parents' Christmas coffee in inverted commas after dinner. The memory always sticks with me at this time of year. That's lovely too as well. Happy Christmas. Having Christmas at Johnteen Beach, Pattaya in Thailand with my good friend Rocky. Merry Christmas to my family and friends. OK, who sent that? I don't know, but their good friend is Rocky. Having... Yeah, that's something... Do you know what you toy with the idea of if you had the means or the way to have Christmas elsewhere? You know, maybe at foreign? I know there's some of you that listen here. And Kate Toomey, isn't it? Kate Tommy is a regular listener in California. It's great to have you on board. What's Christmas like for you in California? Kate, I know we have a lady, I think, that she's always on holidays in Lanzarote or she's over in Lanzarote quite regularly or lives there. I don't know what the answer to that question is. And then we've got people tuning in from Dubai and elsewhere as well, Australia. Let us know where you're listening to us from. Right, another chance here. A couple of people want to hear the question again for our say what competition. We have a ticket. We'll take two callers on and we have prizes for them, of course, one of them being a ticket for the card row. I'll tell you about that just after 10 because you don't have very long, about 24 hours to get your tickets if you want to. Someone's going to get one today, though, for entering our say what competition. And they'll also be in the draw tomorrow for 20 bags of coal. Thanks to Kelly, Santramant and Top. We simply want to know what word is beeped out from Michael Leddy on that entertainment on the Ninety-Ninth show. But no, the reviews for this are... And I am counting the hours. All right, what is the answer? The reviews are... But no, the reviews for this are... And I am counting the hours. Every time I play that, I've got a swear word in my head and I'm going to tell and I apologise. But anyway, it's not a bad word. 086625000, the answer, your name and where you're from to that number. That's text or WhatsApp, by the way. And if you don't text, I don't want to ever exclude anyone as much as possible on this programme. If you don't text, you can give us a pause. Caroline won't thank me for saying it because we're under P, as they say. But if you feel that you're being left out because you don't text, give us a call 0749125000. Right, now let's take a break. When are we talking books? This is a bluff session for me now because I'm not a big reader. But I know lots of you are. And I know lots of you are out there wondering what you're going to get someone for Christmas or even maybe treat yourself. How do you pick a good book if you don't read or you don't read much or maybe you like a different genre? Well, we're going to help you with that after these.

Okay, you're welcome back to the 9-10 News Show here on Highland Radio. Don't forget you can watch the programme and today in particular I'd encourage you to do so by hopping on to our website. I don't think the website's working properly at the moment. Go to social media, YouTube, Highland Radio, Ireland or you can go to Facebook. We're joined in studio now by our next guest on the programme and that is Mark Bonshu, owner of bookmarked letter Kenny. Good morning to you. Good morning. Thank you so much for joining us and it seems like you've opened up a pop-up shop here. That's Highland Radio. Pretty much, yeah. You have in front of you a load of books and really what we're trying to do is give some people some ideas if they want to buy a book for someone, what's out there and what's good to get. Absolutely, yeah. I suppose for the kids, the two most obvious ones, there's Diary of a Wimpy Kid, which is going for years, over 275 million copies sold, great books to get children into reading. Why is it so popular? It's just really funny and it really speaks, it's great language for sort of eight to 12-year-olds. They just seem to love them and the same children are buying the next one every single year. It's just been an incredible phenomenon. It's number one every single year and David Williams is the other major author for children of that age. Would you describe that as a good book, maybe if Granny and Granddad want to buy a book for a nine-year-old to get someone into reading? 100%. It's a good starter book as well. And just ask them to read the first chapter and they'll get hooked. Yeah, really? OK, well, that's always a good sign. Right, OK, so what is this? Oh, they still do those, don't they? The Guinness Book of Records, 68-years-old. Unbelievable. And still our number one seller. They were always in our house when we were younger. Yeah. Always. That's incredible. It's good to see they're still popular. They are not going to be printing them unless they're selling. And they're number one. Really? It's not just that they're selling. What is that? Why do you think the interest is there? It's stunning to me, I have to say. All of that information is obviously available on the internet. But parents find it for children and the children just slap it up, they just sit there and leave through. But you can't, for something like that particularly, you can't be getting it in your hands. And also, great for writing quiz questions over Christmas. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. As well. And it's a nice big book, which is always good. Nice one for, as I say, a parent for a child or a Santa present. Yeah, for sure. Big, big, big stocking filler. Right, what's next? We've got two really interesting books here. Listen to the land speak. An Irish folklore treasury. You kind of look at these and you go, oh, God. That was my initial reaction. But this one from John Creed and Irish Folklore Treasury, this is actually... Can I have a look at that one? Yeah, can I feel for it? Yep. They asked children back in the 1930s to go to their older relatives and ask them for stories of myth and folklore that they would have grown up with. Yeah. So most of the stories date back to the 1800s. Oh, now I see the attraction here now. And this is the selection of the best of them. Yeah, now this is going to be of real interest to people of all generations. I think maybe even the older reader might find this interesting. I think for an older relative, yeah, that's a cracker. That is, well, that's going to be jogging some memories. That's brilliant. And it's beautifully put together, too. That's an Irish folklore treasury. It's a selection of old stories, ways and wisdoms from the school's collection. And they've really gone well with the cover there, haven't they? It's kind of got a sense of age to it, if that makes sense. Doesn't it, even though it's brand new? All right, OK. And the other one that you mentioned there. Listen to the land speak. And that's... It's basically the landmarks around Ireland and it's the stories in the folklore that grew up around them and analysing them. So it starts off with the Crawley River, for example, and old stories that children were told to keep them safe, basically. They were told about fairies who'd take kids in the evening. But it was basically to keep kids safe from falling into the river. Yeah. I just put a picture of Caroline over the fire and Hudson just doesn't go near it at all. He's just scared stiff. Is that the type of thing we're talking about here? That's the sort of thing we're talking about exactly. You've got it. He's not afraid of the heat, but he takes one look at her face. He runs for the kitchen. 100%. OK, I'll just switch cameras here so people can see the cover of these. That is Listen to the Land Speak. And actually, like the title of that too, it's quite evocative. Yeah, and it's a very unusual one, you know. Yeah. Do you read a lot of these or do you have different people in your circle that will read them and that you can trust their recommendations on Mark? Because there's so much stuff across so many different genres. Absolutely. I mean, I read biography and sport would be the main stuff I'm interested in. My four adult daughters now at this stage, they're actually reading the Colleen Hoover stuff. It starts with us and it ends with us. These two books have been... This one here, It Ends With Us, is actually the first in the series. It came out in 2016 and it became a TikTok sensation. It didn't really take off at the start and then it... Are these a series of books, are they? That only came out this year, so that's the sequel to the first one, which is just out this year. So anybody who's read the first one, it was an absolutely fantastic book. All of my, as I say, adult children loved it. Yeah, number one, Sunday Best Time Selling Author, It Ends With Us. So if you were buying this for someone, who would be delighted to receive that? Generally, a female aged 18 up. Yeah, okay, and there's the other book, It Ends With Us as well. That's nice, something about getting a book, isn't there? Okay. What's next then? And then we've got Bono's autobiography, which, again, some people are kind of... He's a bit marmite, isn't he? But I think a lot of people would like this regardless of... I think so, and when you see what he's done, is actually he's taken 40 different songs and the story that was gone on in his life around that time that the song was written, you know, back from when his mother died when he was 14, which I hadn't realised. And each song is basically the story that was gone on and what was happening to his life around that time. And it's really well written. He's actually, obviously he's a great lyricist, but it's really, really well written. And it's a real, actually, if you're a Bono fan, you get a real insight then to the process, presumably, as well. But also, if you're a music fan, generally speaking, but he's quite... He does seem quite a divisive character, strangely, but maybe that's the way we like to take people who have achieved an awful lot. We like to chip them down a little bit. I think he's part of our Irish psyche. Roddy Collins. He managed Finn Hopps for a bit, didn't he? He did, yeah. I always thought that was a strange one. Yeah, I think he might have been after Jonathan Speak. Yeah, and he's managed a number of Irish clubs. He was an average... He's an interesting character, isn't he? Well, yeah, he describes it himself. He was an average manager and average footballer, and the whole story is poking fun at himself. He gets slagged off just about everywhere he goes and there's chance against him and Roddy, you know, you don't know, there's nothing. The Rod Father. Ugly, ridiculous, hilarious. I think he wrote those words of himself. After the warm-up, I called them together and said, one or two of you decided to run inside the cones and the rest of you followed like a herd of sheep. It's a flock of sheep. One of the players said with a challenging stare, not a herd of sheep. We all know that one person like that, don't we? All right, I think that's... That's one I'm definitely going to read. Did you read that one yet? No, I started reading it, but I love the way it's written. I'm actually... That's going to be the next book I read, actually. Right, and is it... Like, it's about Roddy. Is it an insight into the football or what way we... It's both... It's stories spoken for themselves. So, as I say, the life in times of an average footballer and an average manager, and it's toyed through that lens. In other words, you know, everyone releases the books and it's dead serious, and this is what I... He's talking about, really. It sounds like an everyman story. Very much so, very much so, very much so. Right, OK, Charlie Burd's book, you've got that one in your hand. Will we come to that now? Yeah, yeah. It is Time and Tide, and who would... I mean, Charlie Burd done so much this year. Absolutely. In terms of raising awareness, in terms of raising money. Yeah. His story touched... In a way, you couldn't plan. Very much so. It had to happen the way it happened for it to work. Tell us a little bit about this book. And that is the story of, since his diagnosis, you know, the last scoop that he did, which turned into a podcast, and then... His speech starting to go, and people noticing it, and then he started googling his symptoms and then confronting what actually the illness that he had, and then confronting his own mortality and so on, you know, so it's a really intimate story. OK, yeah, it really, really is from him. Quinn, right? This is... How does this sit, I wonder, with the TV show that was at? I think they're very, very similar. It's more or less the same story. Right. But told in, obviously, a lot more detail. Yeah, and listen, that is... That's going to appeal to lots of different people there. Yeah, yeah. And it's a great read. It is a really good read. Because the story written down can be quite different from how it's presented. And that's with the Irishman. I mean, that story is an amazing story, no matter where you were from. Do you know what, like I said this before, and I can't wait for a Netflix or something to get hands on that, because I just think, you know, they might be able to sort of even be a little bit more... Anyway. A bit more licensed. I just think we've seen it with all the things. I am fascinated by that story. Graham Norton, this is fiction. This is his fourth book. It's fourth fiction book. And this one, he's injected more humour into this one. They're all set in Ireland, I suppose the Ireland of his childhood. And, you know, there's a couple of murder ones and so on, and they're really well written. But this one, there's a lot of humour in this one as well, much more so than the other ones. The others were more dark humour. So he's actually, and he's quite a witty guy. And he's a writer of an older, I mean, he writes for TV. He shows made out of his work, and he sells a lot of books. He does, yeah, and he's a very good writer. So this one's not made, it's funny, but not quite as dark in its humour as maybe some of his previous work. Exactly, exactly. Interesting. Ah, he's a fascinating character. Yeah. Matthew Perry. He is of friends' fame, of course. Friends' lovers and the big terrible thing, a memoir. Lisa Kudrow has written the foreword for that. I think he's got an interesting story, and I'll bits and bobs of it. I think he's kind of normal. I think he's kind of... He's a bit like a lot of us, really. He's got his weaknesses. Yeah, and it's incredible. And he talks about how, you know, he thought becoming famous, becoming famous was just a void in himself that he wanted to fill. And he fulfilled all his wildest dreams and it wasn't enough. And then he turned to alcoholism and so on. And it's an interesting story, then, of redemption where he finally figured himself out after a long time. Again, that's for any adult, really, I would suggest. Yeah, very much so. If you're a fan of friends or you're a fan of the guy himself. Apparently, friends is, at some point somewhere in the world, it's on a TV station. It's massive. And... Are you going to read this one out? I'll let you read that. All right. The S-H exclamation mark T-E before Christmas. Serena Terry, the Sunday Times bestseller. One month to go, one stressed mum. Can she pull off the perfect family Christmas? What kind of a book is this? So, this lady is actually from Derry. And she became a TikTok sensation. She has over 2 million followers. She started off putting videos out on YouTube. Manny Banter, people would know from her. She's been on this show as well before. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely. So, this is a book of all the stress that goes around Christmas and trying to pull your family together and stay sane through the whole process. And I think the reason she's popular is it's relatable. Yes, very much. There's a bit of exaggeration there, but a lot of it is real. That is the S-H-I-T-E before Christmas. One month to go, one stressed mum. Right, OK, so that's some book selections there. All in stock, I would hope. If you brought them up here. They'll be on the first table as you go into the... Excellent. And again, people can struggle if you're leaving it to the last minute. What to get someone. Yeah. A book is a lovely gift, because at the very least, they'll go, oh, you think I'm a reader? Thank you very much for that one. Yeah, it's a very personal gift, too. I think so. And you can write something in it. Yeah. As well, if you so wish. All right, what was your book of 2022? My book of 2022... Well, I'm actually reading one called American Kingpin, believe it or not. It wasn't out this year, but I've just started reading it. It's about the story behind the Silk Road and the whole story where they tried to get the guy who set up the Silk Road and the FBI and him trying to evade them and them trying to capture them and all that sort of thing. That's fantastic. It's a really, really riveting book. That's the kind of one I think you look forward to getting home for half an hour to take a bang out half a chapter or a chapter. All right. Listen, brilliant stuff, Mark. Thank you for that. I think some good ideas there. I think you've helped people. And also you can get the books that Mark mentioned there and so much more besides at Bookmark in Letter Kenny. And those were Mark's top 10. Was that 10 books? Top 10 books for Christmas in Fair Play. You went right across all the genres as well. I really appreciate that. Happy Christmas and a prosperous new year to you, Mark. Thank you very much. Thank you very much indeed. We'll be back after the news and the bitchery notes. The Irish Farmers' Journal Are you thinking of changing your car?

Donald Kavana at the Highland Radio Newsdesk. The requiem mass of private Sean Rooney, the young Irish soldier killed while peacekeeping in Lebanon last week is underway in Dundalk. After mass finishes, his remains will be brought to Newton Cunningham in Donegal for a burial ceremony at which the 24-year-old will be given full military honours, with 30 people and a firing party. President Michael D. Higgins is expected to attend. TD and former Army Ranger Cahill Berry says it's an opportunity to reflect on the sacrifice that soldiers make. Most people in the public would have seen the photograph of Private Rooney in his blue beret, and you know by the cut from his pastor that he was just built to join the army. And I'm just kind of just how inadequate any words of mine would be for the family, but hopefully in a number of years' time perhaps they might derive some comfort from the fact that at least he passed away doing the job he loved. Well, temporary road closures are being put in place by Angar the Sheikkhana around Newton Cunningham on the N13 Mainletter County Derry Road from half past 12 this afternoon. The diversions will be in place between the entrance into Newton Cunningham Main Street and the junction with the Orr 237 at Deer Park, with traffic being diverted through Newton Cunningham Village. That's one of those diversions on our website, highlandradio.com Irish Water now says it's likely to be six o'clock this evening before a major issue in West Donegal is resolved. The utility says the water treatment plant interruption is because of supply disrupts, will cause supply disruptions to communities in Mahiru Roti, Min Lara, Min Atladi, Glashashu, Derry Connor, Kelota, Falcarat, Dunmore, Bally Connell, Shrohan, Old Town, Min Derry and surrounding areas. Local Councilor Michael McClavery says once again, people supplied by the Ardsbeg plant at Gorthork are being affected and this is a cause of great concern. The Marine Minister Charlie McConnelog has welcomed an agreement between the EU and UK on fishing opportunities for shared fish stocks for 2023. He says it provides for greater certainty and stability. However, industry representatives say it's time for a fairer deal. They want the government and the EU to address what they've described as the massive disparity in Ireland's share of EU fishing quotas. They're also concerned Norway had been seeking more access to Irish blue-witing stocks as part of a proposal that wasn't accepted by the EU. With more, here's Emma Ryan. Minister McConnelog says the conclusion of the EU-UK negotiations allows quotas to be set for the full year with increases in the quotas for some of Ireland's most important commercial stocks including prawns, hake, northwest harrick and whiting. He says the reopening of the spur dog fishery is significant and concludes the final agreement respects the scientific advice and supports the rebuilding of over fish stocks. However, the industry is far from happy. Brendan Byrne of the Irish Fish Processors and Exporters Association says the industry is at a critical point with Brexit and a disastrous quota deal for Irish fishing in which Spain is allowed to catch more fish in Irish water than the Irish fleet. He added it is profoundly shocking that the EU would even consider granting Norway on feathered access to Irish waters after the Norwegian fleet sought more concessions in discussions on a potential new deal that has been rejected by the EU. The HSE says it has sourced a suitable location for daycare services in the Carinthuna-Kachmant area and it's working closely with the local community centre group regarding the reopening of daycare services in the Glengad Community Centre. Local people continue in Carinthuna and never reopened, leaving many elderly people without vital social interaction. Local councillor Albert Doherty is a member of the HSE's Regional Health Forum. He says while he appreciates the temporary venues which have hosted local people, Carinthuna needs a full time dedicated day centre. I believe that asking the older people of Carinthuna to travel is not fair in the families and I believe it's more costly for the HSE to talk to a number of premises and a number of community leaders saying, can you be the solution? And I also include the HSE because many have told me with a little bit of internal accommodation works perhaps we could go back to the Carinthuna Community Hospital. And Ukraine's president has told politicians in the US his country will never surrender to Russia. America is providing surface-to-wear missiles and more than $1 billion in support to Ukraine. Volodymyr Zelensky says that money is not charity, it's an investment. Addressing Congress in person on his first trip out of Ukraine since the conflict with Russia began, Volodymyr Zelensky spoke of a candlelit Christmas for millions in Ukraine this year. Not because it's more romantic now, but because there will be no electricity. Even if there is no electricity the light of our faith in ourselves will not be put out. At the other forecast, a cloudy start today with isolated drizzly patches, sunny spells and occasional showers will develop as the morning goes on high this afternoon of 7 or 8 degrees celsius in a light breeze.
