Some people may be amused at the irony of it but since my trip to Lourdes last week, which I loved, both Jim and I are struck down with Covid. We had escaped for so long that it was bound to catch us I suppose. It is also a cruel fact of having Covid that when you most need help you can’t have it due to isolation. Tis tough going.

I extend sympathies to Jim Geaney, Toureendonnell,  and his family on the death of his mother, Elizabeth, recently. Also to Edel Buttery,  on the death of her mother, Ita Mullane, Lisready.  Edel is a very active member in our drama group. Both of these mothers lived to be a great age.
