I work as the Sherriff for Dublin City Council and I was evicting a few of his neighbours. To cut a long story short, I had a few too many brandys and had to leave the car where it was. C'est la guerre.

I think he is the son of Joe Dowling a dog bookmaker in the seventies,he was also a bus conducter.John Comyn wrote an article in the Evening Herald about a bus trip home saying....imagine my incredulity when the man saying fares please was my bookmaker,i became wary of bookmakers from that day on....
