Val Joyce was reminding listeners last night that Cliff Richards was born in India on 15th Oct 1940 which might be of interest to Ken and Betty and others.
Library last evening was busy with lots of users and ably managed by Pat Rose and Emmett.
Give a look in next Thursday 7 to 9 pm.
Sign of winter maybe but the Ferbane bridge session last night had eight tables of four which is the best so far this year.
Saw on the Offaly Independent that a new statue in honour of Our Lady of the Rosary has been erected in the grounds of Clonfad Church. The statue was presented in memory of the Kinsella Family of Clonburren. Three members of the Kinsella family travelled from Boston an d Tom , Bob and Tom Junior were present for the blessing ceremony performed by Father Keane.
Weather is sunny again today with temperatures around 55F. Again rain that was promised has kept away so far.
A Kathleen O Donohue contacted this website seeking help in contacting a girl from Shannonbridge that she shared accommodation with in London in 1959 and the information is being sent on to her.Mark and Colin were joined by two English visitors last night in a very enjoyable jam session. The English men and their wives are using Shannonbridge as a base for touring around and enjoyed a great day in Galway and another in Clonmacnois. A regular Bradford fisherman and his wife called in last evening who are also sightseeing and based locally.
