Thursday was the wrap party for Moone Boy in Boyle. I had a really rotten day, my mums dog took ill so I had to bring him to the vet. He needed surgery and I had to pick him up again in the evening. So although I had planned to bring the kids to Boyle I more or less decided not to go as I was really tired. I saw a friend of mine on twitter was going and had posted she was hoping to meet me. So I didn’t want to let her down and we went to Boyle.
I’m delighted we went because I got to meet my new friend and her family. It was lovely to meet her in real life as I’ve known her through twitter for quite a while now. The wrap party was held in Daly’s Bar and it was packed! There was a great atmosphere and there were pictures of Chris O’Dowd around the pub including one of him in the Boyle football team when he was a young lad.
The Rivulets were providing the music for the night. They were excellent. My camera was acting up on the night, hence the pretty rubbish photos.
Jono and Lucy were really pleased to meet Chris. Johnny Vegas also turned up but I think we left before he arrived.
It’s been a fantastic week for Boyle. There has been a lot of talk about Moone Boy and it’s great to see it being mentioned on so many radio stations and in the national and local papers. The Boyle people are really friendly and are delighted to think their town will be on TV soon. I can’t wait to see the show.
My friend took a video of Chris O’Dowds speech from the night:
