30TH. JUNE 2011 WEST CORK, AWARD, PLUS "RIVERDANCE". BELFAST!
Inchydoney really lived up to our expectations! Great welcome from Elma and the beach looked exactly as on the video that I managed to include once in this blog!
We delighted in the sunshine, great hospitality and our one foggy day gave us great relaxation.
On Sunday, Elma drove us around the West Cork Coast to Glandore - a beautiful journey. Earlier, a letter from the Bishop was read at Mass. It showed us clearly the "signs of the times". In January 2012, six parishes,including Clonakilty, will be "clustered". They will work as a unit, so as to offset the scarcity of priests and to ensure that Mass is available in each area.
On Tuesday, before we left, Elma was invited to the Boy's School, where Donal RIP had been a Board Member and 'accountant' - contributing much time and energy to the School. The school had set up a - "MAKING A DIFFERENCE" Award. Each year, Elma is asked to present this "Donal O'Mahony Award". Choice of recipient is made by the School staff.
