About 1990 Jim Mooney and myself won a crystal wine goblet for some bridge game and in an unusual stroke of generosity I gave my glass to Lizzie Egan a great old member in Ferbane Bridge Club. Years later Lizzie passed on and Mary Butler a bridge friend inherited her bits and pieces. Mary now lives in Straffan and some months ago another bridge friend met her and mentioned the goblet. It was a surprize last night when Mary Butler arrived with the goblet and it was good to meet her after many years.
The goblet has found a final resting place on the Curragh.
