My favourite holiday destination is Crete - lovely people, food, sea and sand.
I would never go back to Lanzarote! Got frozen out of it in January, like!
I never go travelling without money, passport, tickets. 1. 2. 3.
My favourite travelling companions are my wife Cathy and my daughter Leslie.
My most memorable holiday experience was playing music with Baaba Maal in Senegal, West Africa in October 2007. It was part of a documentary I did for TG4.
The best hotel I ever stayed in was... Can't remember! It's all a blur, like!
My favourite place in Ireland is Glenbrook, Passage West, County Cork where I live!
My ideal holiday would be... I would like to go to the jungles of Africa, the rainforests of South America or back to the great redwood forest of California!
The most amazing things I have seen on holidays were the great redwood trees of California, the beautiful people of Senegal or the streets of Tokyo!
I cannot wait to go back to Africa!
The craziest thing I have done on holiday was ride a camel in Lanzarote, a bus in Dakar or a bike in Dublin (the most dangerous!).
The last holiday that I was on was Lanzarote in January '09 - freezing, windy and wet!
My favourite City Break is Paris! I LOVE Paris!
I always bring back a present for my daughter Leslie from every country I visit!
If I was stuck on a desert island, I would like to be there with Cathy!
The worst place I ever stayed in was above a pub in Slough, England. "London town for the rough lie down."
The funniest place to dine abroad has to be... Some of the stuff they eat in Japan is well out, like!
My next planned trip is Wyoming, USA! To do a TG4 programme about Buffalo Bill!
