Shannonbridge senior football team were defeated by 10 Points to 6 Points by Shamrock
in a league match last night played on the local pitch.Louis Darcy was shaking his head
at the result which speaks volumes.
Visitor on the river from Florida Marland Dulaney who is a member of the North Florida
Gulf Coast Fishing Club was telling us about fish catches and preservation of fish stock
in their area and complained about anglers not observing the Return The Pike Alive signs.
Colin heard him asking a lady in the bar if she had any objections to his cigar smoke.
She looked at him and said "I don't give a f**k.He went away soon afterwards and did not
wait to hear Paudge.Paudge told me he has sent an e-mail to Lorraine one of his fans in
Pottstown, Philladelphia but got no reply.He will try again.
Remarkable coincidence last night when holidaymaker Dick Reeves was telling Ann Kearns
and me about a song he had heard last year and had taped it but was not able to make
out the words.He knew it was something about a cowboy and he had the music written
down.Suddenly Paudge started singing When The Cowboy Rides Away and Dick said
"That's it" and went down to the bar to hear it.Ann Kearns who now works in Morans
told him she had the song on tape and will give it to Dick today.God help the fish when
the cowboy song hits them.
