Congratulations.  Well done, well spoken.

Wow, as  I live in the USA, can't help noticing what nice, polite, courteous, respectful reporters you have there in Ireland.   Not to paint all US reporters with a broad brush, but it is refreshing to see/hear.

We have a few that I wouldn't have anything to do with, either, Danny...

But Joe Little is one of life's few, true gentlemen... Which is why he can get an interview with anyone!... A really nice guy....

That was pretty cool. 10:09 to be exact lol.  You have "Carer's day'? That is excellent.

You are becoming a real celebrity over there!  You deserve every bit of recognition you get.  The amount of time you give as a caregiver and as an advocate for kidney disease is admirable   :yahoo;    Congratulations to you and Mum.   Love seeing you in action.

Darthie...you are SO good at these interviews!  It was great to watch and I agreed, Mr. Little is an example of what all reporters should try to be. 

Next one, though, I double dog dare you to wear an IHD tee shirt while on camera.   :rofl;  :rofl;  :rofl;
