POP heartthrob Robbie Williams put a smile back on the faces of two Omagh bomb victims this week.
Sunday Life wove some magic to grant sisters Laura and Nicola Hamilton their greatest wish - to meet the chart-topping pin-up in person.
And the girls were on cloud nine last Tuesday, when they were given VIP backstage passes for a private meeting with their idol.
The magic moment has left both girls on top of the world, after their dreadful ordeal of the past six months.
Said their mum, Teresa: "It has certainly taken their mind off the bomb.
"They have been so excited all week, and it's great to see them that way, after what they have been through.
"The pain they have both suffered was unbelievable.
"It's hard to believe a child could suffer so much pain and live through it. "
It was Teresa who wrote to Sunday Life last year, when she first heard that her daughters' favourite popstar was coming to Northern Ireland.
She asked if we could help arrange for them to meet their hero, in the hope that it would cheer them up.
And we were delighted to play our part in setting up the special meeting.
Still on a high the next day, a delighted Nicola, 12, said: "He's really gorgeous. He was down to earth and really friendly.
"Some people say he's got spooky eyes, but he hasn't, his eyes are lovely."
Laura, 14, added: "He was brilliant, just perfect. He asked us how we were feeling and chatted away.
"Everybody loves him, and we realise how lucky we were to meet him in person."
