PERIODIC PHOTOGRAPHS  
I will display different photographs here at fairly regular intervals.

Pictures from Near Bunclody

The arrival of the Olympic Torch in Bunclody during its tour of Ireland before our national Special Olympics in Belfast.
Amongst those on stage is our own County Councillor Barbara Anne Murphy and Members of the Garda and PSNI

Standing beneath our commemorative monument to the world Special Olympics in 2003 when Bunclody played host to Burkina Faso from Africa, are our two competitors in the National Special Olympics, Elaine Murphy and Donna Farrell. Also in the photo are law enforcement members and local organiser Fran Stephenson.
We all wish the best of luck to Elaine and Donna.

Pat Lennon in fine form as he tries hard to keep pace with the rapidly changing positions of the competitors during the fiercely contested Mall duck race, held recently during our annual festival of fun organised by the Bunclody Active Retired Association.

A local organiser has asked me to let it be known that the scandalous rumours of cruelty to these birds during these races are totally untrue and that the welfare of these birds was overseen by none less than our retired policeman and former presidential candidate Derek Nally

A very enjoyable walk -that I took part in myself- through historic Bunclody. I have to say that I could have listened for a lot more hours to the knowledgeable and sometimes comical anecdotes of Cannon Wall. Roll on next year.
