    Sorry for the confusion, glad you got the gist of it in the end.

    To be honest I didn't know whether to go with "long-called for" or "long called-for".

    In the end I decided to go with neither and hope it wouldn't cause too much stress.

    Are you sure? What's on at 12.30, An Saol O Dheas? They could easily have fit that in. Very bad form altogether.

    They've always played English-language music in the evenings, but yeah that might be the policy alright. A bit rigid of them if so.

    Considering the tune is taken from Horslips’ ‘Dearg Doom’ which, in itself, based on the trad tune ‘O’Neill’s March’ it wouldn’t be much of an “exception” to make.

    Tuesday Morning. Great forgotten Pogues classic with Spider Stacey on lead vocals.

    And Robbie's Somewhere Down the Crazy River moments afterwards.

    Good selection today. A mark docked for calling the Pogues album Waiting ON Herb, but pretty solid otherwise.

    That song really takes me back to the Summer of 1993.
    Was at a time when I would tune into BBC Radio 1 on Medium wave or if I could on FM.
    It was a fairly big hit for The Pogues, considering Shane was not part of the line up by then.
