Hey, I'm just leaving a voice memo for myself.
I'm in the Shannon Airport in Shannon, Ireland, on my way back to the United States, to New York.
There is this picture wall, giant pictures of all the famous people who have come through here.
So, you know, they have like John F.
Kennedy and there's Fidel Castro and Boris Yeltsin, and there is one photo that was sort of amazing.
There's a picture of the president of Ireland, and next to him is someone called Dr.
Brendan O'Regan.
And he's sort of out of focus.
You can see he's wearing a natty suit.
He's got a nice little pocket square.
And it says that Dr.
O'Regan was the person responsible for this airport, for basically developing the Shannon International Airport.
And most importantly, he created the world's first airport duty free shop.
You know the duty free shop, the place where you get the perfume and the chocolates and all the liquor.
First one was here, and before I get on the flight, I just wanted to rush quickly over and take a look at what was the world's first duty free.
