Hopefully we have two more correspondents to this website from Japan as Niamh Quinn and Cliona Ryan set off for Japan on Saturday to teach English for a couple of years I am told. They can connect with Michael the webmaster who will give them an access. Wishing you all the very best in your venture.
Some results from matches played over the weekend. In football Fermanagh beat Donegal, Derry beat Limerick and in the replay match Westmeath beat Laois by 12 Points to 10 Points to win their first Leinster Championship. Well done.
In hurling Cork beat Antrim easily and Kilkenny and Clare produced a great exhibition which ended in a draw. There will be a replay next weekend.
The Church of Ireland held their Annual Service in Clonmacnois yesterday and there was an open invitation to all Christians to be present as it marked the 50th Anniversary of this service. The Ballinasloe Brass and Reed Band provided entertainment afterwards.Providing entertainment in Lukers yesterday afternoon were The Last Four who were the last remaining four people in the selection for last years Eurovision.
Remember The Indians Showband. Some of them gave an open air performance in Ballinasloe yesterday and reports say they were very enjoyable.
Today is the start of The Galway Race week and the people of Kilconnell are having a one hour  march on the main road today to protest against a Dump planned for the area.
