And sure enough when it was over Ronan said it was him and it was his birthday. Not a bad singer in fairness. As I said I saw him in the local a few times and he always put on a good show but got a bit cocky after the "hit".

Back then the owner of my local (Tom) used to give him a few weekend slots. After the hit and a bit of fame, Tom rang him to know could he do the following Sunday night. Brendan said, "NO. I don't play in backstreet toilets any more.". Fast forward a year and Tom got a call from Brendan asking had he any weekend nights free. He was told in no uncertain terms where to go.

Aonghus you see is involved in some capacity or a member of a rival parachuting club......

A few folks on boards were saying they wouldn't go near his restaurant, because nearly everyone knew someone he'd screwed over.

I met lads who worked for him, just to get names on CV's and they said he was abusive and demeaning in the kitchen.

It was bad but then that Tosser Gavin Lambe-Murphy came on the TV making out it was the governments fault and talking how much craic they had going into restaurants and spending all night sitting at tables and ordering nothing. That made bad into worse. Pair of twats.
