When I go to meet him down in Sandycove, he’s surrounded by friends of every generation, all having a great aul chat. He comes here every day for a swim. He’s been swimming all of his life, taking after his Mam who also swam every day right up until her 80s.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Naomhán has led a full life, with children and grandchildren, moves to Wales and London and back again, but I feel he’s being quite modest when we talk about his career achievements. He’ll barely mention that he was the one responsible for bringing the gas pipeline to Dublin! He says he can hardly remember these things now, but I bet if we had a cup of tea and a cosy afternoon he’d tell me it all.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Rx</p>","author_name":"Poddle Audio"}
