Turnpike, Ennis
I read on the front page of this morning’s Irish Examiner of Tony Kelly who visited Muhammad Ali on his 72nd birthday last week.
It reminded me of the sculpted plaque that I spotted in Ennis some time back.
It brought back memories when growing up of days before Pay-Per-View or even Satellite Sports Channels on subscription; days when allowed to stay up late to watch world title boxing fights; days when there appeared to be only one world boxing champion.
Unfortunately that is the end of my opting-out for the day – reality beckons.
As regularly quoted – Not all progress is good. If I only knew then what I know now……..
