old dog, new tricks

Midnights, the stories of 13 sleepless nights scattered throughout my life, will be out October 21. Meet me at midnight.

Transcript of Speech:

Yma o hyd. Yma o hyd.

I hear the voices singing,

Speed your journey, boys, bois bach,

One nation, singing with one voice

A song of hope - a song of courage

A victory song that floats through the valley like a red mist,

Rolls over the mountaintops like crimson thunder!

A red storm is coming to the gates of Qatar!

It crackles with the spirit of '58 and Jimmy Murphy's boys

It turns the pages of the history books and finds Rob's page, waiting, still to be written.

What would you write in there boys? Dare you write your names on that page?

We haven't waited 64 years and come half-way around the world to be troubled by a neighbour from back home!

When the English come knocking on our door let's give them some sugar, boys! Lets give them some Welsh sugar!

They've always said we are too small! We're too slow! We're too weak! Too full of fear!

But yma o hyd you Sons of Speed!

As they fall around us!

We are still here!
