Saturday evening 13th saw the arrival of Sid and Penny Tolchin in Shannonbridge after visiting the south west. They went for a meal in The Fort Restaurant on Saturday night and were very impressed with the food and layout and atmosphere of the place.
Sunday we took them on a visit to Shannon-harbour, Banagher, where the annual street fair was in progress and on to Meelick, Clonfert of Our Lady, Brendan and the Emmanuel House.On the retiurn journey we visited Silverline and Carrick cruisers and bypassed Banagher town on our way to Birr.We had hoped to visit Birr Castle but had only 35 minutes opening time left.Lord Ross came alog and was telling us of his plant potting three week trip to Georgia.He recommended we return on the Monday but alas Oughterard was calling.We had someting to eat in Dooleys;Coachouse and returned home after a chat with Eddie Enright who was sitting out relaxing on his front steps.
