Well last Sunday finally got my brother in law,Bruce, out in his 1969
TR6,original Irish car.It has been in his garage for over 10 yrs with very
little running so down to Johnny Flynn and up and running now.We took a run
over the military road and nice to see such a nice motor out.Have posted a
couple of photos.
Many thanks to Luke and Ken and the staff at Intel who sponsored the lads to
the tune of €285. A simple lunch time pop up booth, great idea, thanks to all.

just like a large bungalow. Facilities includes a family room, a quiet room,
music and playrooms, outdoor water features, a quiet
garden. 
This children's hospice is all about putting 'Life into
a child's day, not days into a child's life'. For parents, it will give
that much needed break - often as simple as a decent night's sleep. It will
also support healthy siblings, who are veWe are delighted to annonce that the run is now full with 62 participants in 40

We had a bucket collection on Saturday 14th May for The Sunshine Home fund
raising effort. We collected at one entrance form 9am to 6pm and raised
€1899.58. Not bad !
We also had the lucky break on the day that RTE 2fm were hosting a round of their Band Busking competition.' Keywest' were the band on the day - a really good bunch of chaps and their efforts alone raise €700 on the day for us. We got a mention on the Ruth Scott and Paddy Show and were invited up to the RTE studio to watch the band being interviewed.
Many thanks to Muireann Lynch and Brendan Fitzpatrick for their smiling faces and collection efforts on the day.
Our next major collection day is at Frascati Shopping Center Blackrock on Saturday 16th July. Please contact me if you can lend a hand on the day.
