91Èȱ¬

I got away earlier than I had expected from the Sinn Fein Ard Fheis and caught the train back up to Belfast. When I got home I found myself being unexpectedly brought along to a surprise birthday party for a friend being held, wait for it, in an Orange Hall. So from the fraternal greetings described earlier at the Ard Fheis to being pressed into folk dancing to an accordion in an Orange hall. Has anyone got a better example of such a sudden switch from one environment to another?

Disgusted in Derry - I don't remember saying anything one way or the other about the Palestinian/Israeli conflict, so I don't know how you can presume to know my views. If you want more on my journalistic thoughts on the Middle East try getting hold of a copy of my book "Flash Frames" in which I wrote about the time I spent in Jerusalem for the 91Èȱ¬.

Now though I have an Inside Politics programme to produce which will include interviews with Gerry Adams and Shaun Woodward, with both looking forward to Tuesday's vote on the devolution of justice and talking about the dissidents a year after the Masserene murders. As usual the programme is on air straight after the one o'clock news on 91Èȱ¬ Radio Ulster.
