loyal orders

Particularly considering what the last post is about, some might be forgiven for thinking I've finally caved and picked a side of the great Northern Irish divide. You think wrongly - this is just to celebrate the prominence of one Sir Graeme Smyth, politico extraordinaire, one-time chief whip, now secretary of the Young Unionists (dirtbags), deputy whatever of Knockloughrim Sons of Sam (scumbags), and of course founder and lifetime chair of the Graeme Smyth Drinking Club...

Also dug up some 'dirt' on him from back in the day here. Graeme once tried to order at the KFC drive-in through a closed window. Wunderbar.

On other notes, began recording a cold open for this year's Camp Radio podcasts, which will be all available online from the AYW website at the start of August. All of Camp Media is being broadcast daily online this year, which is exciting. However, what started as an idea for a 30 second sketch is turning into a full blown radio play, with El Bobbo (found his HFCP too!) providing most of the voice talent. I don't often publicly declare these things, but it will honestly be one of the funniest things you will hear this year, even if you know nothing or care nothing about Camp... and in four hours we only got the first six minutes recorded. It's gonna be epic...
