Tonight's entertainment will be Aidan Dooley's one man show about Tom Crean in an Taibhdearc theatre. As it happens, I noticed that the Sunday Tribune is following the BBC's lead with a competition to nominate the ten greatest Irishmen (or Irishwomen) of all time. Crean easily makes my list for his feats of endurance and heroism on the great Antarctic expeditions of Scott and Shackleton. I'm still working out who my other nominations are. More about that some other time.
