John Greene's Radio Diary Episode Two

Episode one of John Greene's Radio Diary explained how I became involved in Pirate Radio, while at the same time holding down a job as a bus driver with Ireland's National Transport Company - CIE.

In Episode Two I continue the unintentional journey into radio as I became part of what were now known as 'The Super Pirates'. This was our first time getting paid for Radio work and it felt quite good. I was enjoying it, but knew also deep down that it wouldn't last. And it didn't. All Pirate Radio Stations in were legally obliged to close on New Year's Eve of 1988. This, as far as I was concerned had to be the very end of an enjoyable journey. Little did I know that nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, the journey was only really about to begin.
