May
friendship, like wine, improve as time
advances.
And may we always have old wine, old friends, and young cares

 Paul "Mo
Thòin"
Gorgeous Paul, McAdaer’s travel-mate in their 2001
Irish Tour. A
12-day journey (10 of never-ending rain) when he was the
outstanding hero of more or less “fantastic”
stories, told of even today.

"Gillo"
Lawrence
O’Lean and McAnnon ran into him across the Danish
land in the summer 1998. Then came two oblivious years and then,
by magic chance, Ireland gave him back for good to his knights
two summers later, in the midst of the Galway Quay Street folks.
Since then on their paths have never been split up.

Mobo "The
Master"
He, too, on the Emerald Island for fun-learning reasons
came out to be a man for all seasons. In Ireland he has found
his natural home—in fact up there seasons are all the same :)

John O'Iannaghan
The
so-called “Teacher”, he is the intellectual of the lot
(though his photos wouldn’t seem
to prove that) and precious ambassador among the knights
of Joyce, Beckett, Shaw, Swift, Yeats and Wilde.
Altogether,
the very first of all, a few years ago, to cross the English
Channel and set foot on the Irish land…the the situation
slipped off his hands ;)

Gary
(Gearóid)
From Cavan County with rage! The only
Irish one of the lot by birth…and if you have some doubts,
well try and buy him a beer without being offered at least
three by him! Out of courtesy he will have three pints with
you and then will start drinking seriously!
;)

Amy June
A living witness of St Patrick’s greatness (along
with some Guinness), the most beautiful shamrock ever bloomed in
the garden of the Irish Knights. Well, if you put Irish and
Italian folks together…

Pisto &
Francesca
A
friendship born on the dusty sofas of a Dublin hostel, bound by
Guinness pints in Temple Bar pubs and carried on in the cellars
of Vicenza hills. Need to add more?

Alessia
An
abstemious heroin of 2001 Fairies Tour, she was able to
accomplish the mission of not drinking even a pint of beer in
her journey across Ireland: could you believe it?

Tata
McAnnon
Faithful companion of McAnnon she shares him, since ages,
between exclusive inroads with the Knights and romantic exotic
holidays. McAnnon considers her his own personal travel agency.
With her strong Anglo Saxon taste she run into (and
immediately fell) the thick net of toasts spinned in the years
by McAnnon to the last to be transformed into the marvellous
Irish TATA, with all the honours. Side by side to McAnnon, not
satysfied of this she proves to be one of the major fans of the
Green Island that the Po valley remeber and bella lì... :-)

The
Lipsticks'
In real facts Beppe and Paola! Well,
what can we say….let’s say that even on the homelier road
Mantova-Brescia people get on fine with that!
Two
great friends, as is great the genuine “Irish” spirit they
embody and have inside. UP WITH FOLK LIZARDS! CHEERS UP!
;)

Cipo
Cipo! So called “Cippettino” by his friends, that is a great
friend of ours. He’s also a well known film expert (and other
things). We are proud to have the honour of his cooperation to
our website, issuing a specific section on Irish film,
Poitìn,
with his usual competence, frankness and appropriateness, which
you can clearly see browsing his own personal website, “Dillinger
è morto”,
about cinema at 360°
