Feargal Lynn

By Q Radio

A Glens of Antrim man has received a letter with his biography rather than his address on the front of the envelope.

Among the details listed on the envelope were 'used to run discos in the parochial hall' and 'friends with the fella who runs the butchers in Waterfoot' along with his parents' names and where he used to live.

Feargal Lynn said he had written to a friend but didn't include his new address and she thought it would be entertaining if she set the postman a challenge with her return correspondence.

Mr Lynn was so taken with  the biography that "I said to my wife 'I want that on my headstone when I go' because it sums up my youth perfectly."

He spoke to Q Radio:
