This Friday World renowned horse Whisperer Franklin Levinson will be in studio with me and a Horse (well the horse will be outside).
Franklin will be telling me all about horse whispering and the unique techniques he uses. Also local man Mousey Jinks will be bringing down one of his horses so we can put into practice some of the theory.
If your around Collooney and you’re a horse lover come on down to meet the Horse Whisper between 4 and 5pm this Friday Aug 21st.
Any questions for the Gifted one email: drive@oceanfm.ie or www.twitter.com/francisboylan

Was watching Bill O’Reilly on Fox Last night. Great Comedy show!
This Guy, Jordan Peel, made an appearance (Fox News just loves Obama ;-) ) He is starting to make waves in the US.
Anyway, I think he has Obama down to a T. I’m sure Saturday Night Live will be calling soon.
