And I remember they saying we go earlier.
We were over there about quarter to five.
And the heavens opened.
It lashed rain.
I never saw rain like it.
And...
We were inside and then someone came in and said, the crowds are off the radar.
The traffic were on the main road, dividing the traffic.
And we were there from five o'clock, as I said, about half nine.
crowds coming in and they were drenched absolutely that priest came out he said to me do you want to break do you want to come back and I said no I'm fine I was able to do it I just don't know how but one thing that stuck in my mind was people he had worked for farmers in their 80s and 90s they're crying because who would they get now
But one girl in particular, I mean, like, I'm amazed I remember these things, but none perhaps stayed course of mine.
Briege Cochrane, she's a dual footballer and hurler for Cork.
She's won 14 or 15 All-Irelands.
She came in standing in front of me and she was saturated.
I had trained her as an under 12 football team.
And she came in and sympathised with me and gave me my hug and whatever.
And she was getting married the following morning.
And I thought to myself, seemingly she started queuing half a mile down the road.
And she stood in the pouring rain to get in.
And that, I think, gave me the strength to realise, look what people are doing.
