Bridie Carry tells us that Lorraine Mc Kenna from Pottstown Penns USA has just written to her to say that the Mc Kennas are not coming to Shannonbridge this year due to the strong Euro v Dollar. She is still not happy about the Fitzpatricks not being in the village and next time she feels she would like to come in the Spring or September. Do'nt worry Lorraine Kaye and Liam are just a nice walk away and Kay told us that she looks forward to your return and will have you out for a meal in her house.
