The ‘Wagonwheel’ hit singer arrived with flowers, to meet his biggest Laois fan last August, taking to the supermarket microphone to call her to the checkouts, to the delight of customers, and her utter shocked joy.
“I was so surprised, he was very nice, genuine on and off the cameras,” said Jenny, 32, whose immediate reaction was to whip off her paper deli hat, and worry about not wearing any make-up.
