Good to see Ciara and Sarah giving us an update on Sydney. Hope Niamh Quinn in Japan will give us a look at life as she sees us over there in the next year. Bridie Carry had some photographs of The Limo in the park taken when it picked up Mary Quinn, Lorraine Kenny and Elizabeth Egan and their partners to take them to the recent Graduation Ball in Tullamore. Bridie also had some photographs taken on the recent outing organized by the Active Retirement Group when they visited Galway. Good to see that Briidie Carry's mother - Great Granny Brennan has arrived for a three week visit and she has a busy schedule prepared visiting friends and relations and attending a number of birthday parties. Mighty woman.
Shannonbridge minor footballers played Shamrocks last evening and had a good win scoring 2 - 15 to 1 - 12.
Heard the good news that Gerry and Mary Kelly from Miller's Pub and Restaurant had their first baby son and will be named Rian. Congratulations.
Looking forward to this years Pattern in Clonmacnois on Sunday 19th September as the Monks from Glenstal will be providing the music and singing for the ceremony to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Papal visit.
Good to hear from Maureen Killeen Taylor in America who is trying to trace family trees.She can trace her own family back to 1870 which is not a bad start.
In golf there is a two pronged tool about two inches long used to repair divots and Oliver Hilliard was showing us his latest addition to his collection last evening. It has an attractive badge for Roscommon Golf Club attached and will join the line up of over 200 that Oliver has collected.
