WHAT A WEEKEND
Well we were all looking forward to the weekend and the opening of the track at the GAA Pitch. Well my weekend got off to a great start I must say. I came home from a beautiful Memorial mass for the late James Nolan on Saturday night and I must add the choir was Magnificent.
My house was in darkness when I got home but I didn’t take much notice as it had got dark while we were in at mass. Arriving into my kitchen the light had come on, and Lo and Behold there was our daughter Marielle who had arrived home from America with her husband Dave to surprise us and it was a wonderful surprise as we hadn’t seen them for nearly 2 years due to Covid and we couldn’t get over to them recently for our grandson’s wedding. Well enough about myself.
A great crowd gathered at the GAA PITCH on Sunday and despite everyone getting soaked it was a great opening of the Walking Track. Our young boys and girls were enthralled by the presence of AARON GILLANE-Limerick Hurler who gave our young players a demonstration of how it’s done. Well done to all who helped out on the day to make it all go smoothly, and to the Ladies who gave out the teas and treats in the rain. As I do my lines now this Monday night I heard there were about 30 up at the track tonight, walking and running. What a great facility we now have, with a Public Toilet and all lit up over the Winter months. So there’s no excuse for any of us only to. GET OUT and make full use of the facility. We will be the FITTEST AREA in West Limerick .
All YOGA enthusiasts will be delighted to hear that LINDA is back in the hall on October 7th Thursday nights from 6.30 to 8pm just bring along your mat and sleeping bag or blanket and enjoy the exercise and relaxation. It’s €10 well spent, everyone is welcome men and women.
Wasn’t it great to see Eoin McCarthy doing so well at the Listowel Races, and having a horse-trainer in ATHEA puts us on the Map in the Racing Circles. Wishing them many more wins in the future.
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:-
BE SO HAPPY THAT WHEN OTHERS LOOK AT YOU, THEY BECOME HAPPY TOO.
