Met and had many happy encounters with this amazing fellow Bellaghy man. A human being first, an intellectual second and an Ulsterman third. Plummy british Sue Lawley sounds secondary to this genius of the English language. Missed every day for his candour and intellect and his humility.
Oh Seamus..how precious to have a window to your heart.. Thank you thank you..I know your no longer with us there was never enough time..come back to us when you .....
If I was to choose one book, I think I would include 'Exploring The Earth and Moon' by Patrick Moore ( 1923 - 2012 ). Although it is written for a juvenile audience, I think it expresses with clarity and precision our home planet and nearest neighbour world in space, and encourages the mind to wonder at what we are so familiar with, the Earth and moon, with joy and imagination, and compels us to see delight and wonder in what we see around us.
Michael Gildea. The generosity of spirit of he describes was hugely evident in the years I lived in the Ballinvard , Rossmore. What a pleasure that time was.
The man whose pages thank the trees for their paper. 'Humanity' is the word @lindsay berry. Heany was a literary gymnast! Not to mention the shamanic depth of the his work. His words both sparkle and jarr in all of the right places.
