Well it's the end of another day and it has been an ok day. Don't know about ye but i found it a bit heavy. Blinding headache, wouldnt be as bad if i had a hangover( Chance be a fine thing ). The ol dark nights are in . Iv kindling all stacked up getting ready for the log fire. Romantic to sit and watch the flames, hahaha jes many a day since I saw romance. A good flick , can diet coke and I'm set. Kids settling back to school, TG, bit of of me time for the mums, haha children alc day Tue, Penneys be packed. Anyway, it's good night from me, and it's good night from them. Say a little prayer for the sick, and those who care for them ,espically in our community. Remember to those away from home for what ever reason. Remember to the homeless with no bed, including children no where to call home, never known where you be next. No food at times, and nothing been done to help them or solve the problem. Tis a very sad time we are living in. The Government has a lot to answer for. They need to do something now. Few post and bit on the news about the rise in homeless, it's raisen 30% in Dublin. Look at Cork on the news, people who have jobs living in tents. It's all over the country, every town, and village. As bad as the famine people quing at penny kitchens. Oh God help them all. So be greatful for having a roof and a bed. Night night sleep tight and dont let the bed bugs bite. God Bless.

A night time view of our memorial garden. This was started by our youth group The Untouchables, and is lovenly cared for by Helena Walker/Holmes. It's revamped every few years. Màny of community have placed a monument of their loved one. It's proving very popular and lots stop to say a prayer. There is a lovely one in John Sweeney and A new one in Springfield park. Nice to give a gesture and remember people. Some people might not like but we've had great feed back on it.
