He doesn't like small talk, that's for sure. And that great euphemistic cliché - he doesn't suffer fools glady - might have been coined for him.

Enda is personable and relaxed in person, as too is Bertie. I've found Rabbitte to be somewhat testy in person, as if he is looking for some sign that you're out to catch him out, so he can get his retaliation in first. <BR/><BR/>It can work the other way too though, I remember a school friend of mine who told me he was thinking "You know I'd vote for that guy and I actually know him" after hearing me on the radio in 2004. I've only ever done audience pieces for telly.
