Before the thrilling reunion of Raul Malo, Robert Reynolds, Paul Deakin, Eddie Perez and Jerry Dale McFadden as the Mavericks, Raul toured solo and had some wonderful gigs. As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve met some very dear friends through the Mavericks and when Raul went to Belfast it was a great way for us to meet up!
I went with my daughter, and in the same hotel was my smart, sophisticated and slim friend Elly and her daughter all the way from the Netherlands. We took a little tour of Ulster together, and had a wonderful day before meeting up with our other dear friend, Susie and her daughter. It was a real mums and girls weekend because another Raul fan, Fiona was there, also with her daughter!
A brilliant combination… good friends, beautiful Ulster and the delicious Mr Malo!
