by Trish Whelan. Malcolm O’Kelly, Ireland’s record cap-holder, will be writing a special Lions diary for the Ford website www.ford.ie during this summer's tour to New Zealand. Above, Ford Ireland chief Eddie Murphy wishes Ireland's record cap-holder a bon voyage as he prepares to depart for New Zealand with the rest of the Lions squad.
“It’s a long time to be away and we’re going to be immersed in rugby for most of the time, so it’s good to have a distraction like the diary,” he says. “There’s going to be so much happening down there and I can’t wait for it all to start.”
