RIP Frank.

He started off life as a horse feed salesman. It was the hay he sold then.

Have you heard about the Irishman who reversed into a car boot sale and sold the engine?

🙁

Journalist and friend Eddie McIlwaine recalled: "He met the present Pope (Benedict XVI) and the Pope said 'did you ever meet Elvis Presley' and Frank said 'no I have not, but it won't be long now'."

I liked his description of northern Ireland

There are too many Protestants, too many Catholics, but not enough Christians

"I'm not sure my wife likes me. I had a heart attack and she wrote for an ambulance"

Just goes to show that standing up and telling jokes is still funny, there's no need to be purposefully obnoxious. Take heed Mr F Boyle.

RIP Frank

Odd. I rather thought the problem was that that's what "Christians" are like...

Oops... not sure who should be more embarrassed about that, me for getting it wrong or you for being a Jimmy Cricket fan!

The man was a legend to anyone like me who grew up in NI in the 70s. Hadn't thought about or heard of him in years yet so sad to see him go.

RIP Frank.
