Great craic last night at #SpiritofNI awards. So honoured to have been awarded the "overcoming adversity" award. (don't know who nominated me. If it was you, make yourself known!) . Especially great to get the award on Global MND awareness day - so you know - be aware.

'Good with faces' is on @LyricBelfast in two weeks - written by my good friend Oisín Kearney - entirely by himself I might add. If you want to see what an "Oisín and Mick" script is like without the "Mick" - make sure you get your tickets booked .

Myself & Oisín have written a new one man play about me having MND , "My Right Foot" sort of like a spiritual successor to "My Left Nut". On @LyricBelfast in Oct. as long as I'm not dead!. (That's the type of joke you can expect in the play). Tickets:

Was on Ireland AM there talking about MND - I tried to show how it's effecting my arm and accidentally did a Nazi salute 🤦. Absolute disaster.
