I recently served as Mayor of Kilkenny City, having been elected to Kilkenny Borough Council in 2004. I joined the Labour Party in 1987, and contested the local elections in 1999 in my native South Kerry. I was elected in 2004 in my new home city. I am now the only Labour Party candidate for Kilkenny City West, covering most of the west of Kilkenny City and the rural towns and villages of Callan, Danesfort, Stoneyford, Kells and Dunamaggin.

Meeting the Milk Cart
Here is the ultimate childish comedy fan's pic. On the road to Callan on Thursday, Fionn, Caoilfhionn and I came across the wonderful milk-cart from Fr. Ted-remember the manic scene with Fr. Dougal driving the cart around like a demented lunatic á la the movie Speed.
The cart is being pushed around Ireland to raise funds for Downs Syndrome Ireland and to mark the 10th anniversary of Dermot Morgan's death, and is getting a fantastic reaction everywhere.
Here's the famous clip that you shoud remember-what magic it was, and do support the lads and lassies organised and sponsored by Paddy Power bookmakers when they come to a place near you.
