Back to Paris

Back after a few lovely weeks in Ireland. It was great. Highlight was the baptism of baby Emma Mary who is second child of my niece, SinĂ©ad and her husband Kevin. The family BBQ comes a close second. It was also good to get a visit to Belfast and also to Aughrim (Co Wicklow). Apart from those trips I was warmly welcomed and made to feel at home by my sister, Helen. Good also to be back!           AT

Summer in Bray

Arrived in Bray, Co, Wicklow, Ireland, for a summer break. It is always good to be back home. Was able to visit relatives and friends in the past few days and say a prayer at Parents' grave in Redford, Greystones. Hope to get a ticket to see Tyrone v Dublin at Croke Park on Saturday evening next. Baptising my grand-niece on Sunday afternoon. Looking forward to a family gathering at that time. May even get a game of golf  while home. Keeping in touch with Paris and further away by wonders of email and Internet. A T
