Martin and Rory

Thu, 29 September 2016

Martin and Rory have been close friends and bridge partners for over 10 years and still play bridge together up to three times a week. 

Rory runs the biggest Bridge congress in Ireland. 

He enjoys public speaking and often writes a business column for The Sunday Independent when not looking after Pedro the Dog and his pet snake. 

Martin, who is a university lecturer, has a real interest in History and Literature and enjoys going to the theatre. 

Rory describes Martin as ‘a real grammar Nazi.’ Rory enjoys reality programmes such as Deadliest Catch, The Daily Show and also likes the odd documentary. While Martin has been known to binge-watch episodes of Game of Thrones, he is also a massive animation fan, especially The Simpsons and Family Guy.
