Murphy fans will remember the character of Pete Mullins in A Crucial Week In the Life Of A Grocer's Assistant, who opened all of his utterances and his conversations with "we'll have snow, ha?" Mullins, based on a real character in Murphy's hometown of Tuam said this, not because he genuinely believed that the white stuff was imminent, but because he wanted to contribute to the discourse of the day, to get a spake in, no matter how ridiculous what he was saying. It was his 'in" into a conversation. It was his way of contributing to the noise. In one way, if Peteen Mullins were alive today, he'd be stuck into the discourse of the referendum.
