I was raised in an Irish Catholic family of 6 siblings - we all drank, smoked and partied almost every night while growing up. I remember I started smoking around 12, and I guess drinking not long after that. It was a wild, memorable childhood.

Few of my readers at this very moment have to ask who “she” is …

Elizabeth II - or “Elizabeth the Great” as Boris echoed in the British Parliament the day after her death, perhaps creating a historical moniker for all time.

But it’s a wonder - why do I cry? 

Once I heard the Dalai Lama scold over 200 representatives of Sydney media.
