@PadraigBelton@glennpolley@patr50patr50 Ah look at that - many, many points for romance, as it turns out. There was a cafe upstairs for a while too, I think? Happy anniversary to you and your wife, I hope you’re still sweeping her off her feet like that. ❤️
Boarding school blues, a brass band, the clang of the blacksmith's anvil... sweet music +sweet treats in a mid-century schoolmistress's recipe book. Tune in! 9am Sun @RTERadio1 @carolmtaaffe Colin Regan @PJohnstonFCDO Margaret Dunne Fiona Smith @antoniahart#Ploughing#Buttera
Most welcome book post 🧡 thanks @FourCourtsPress and brilliant editors @RedmondJennifer @MaryMcAuliffe4 - look at that array of contributors. I’ve a chapter in there too, on 19th-century women running pawnbroking shops. Get it from FCP site, it’s flying in to shops pronto too.
@_Antiquarian Looks as if run by the Slowey family during Civil War (Alice Slowey killed by stray bullet 4 July 1922). Jack Lynch’s for a while. Tommy’s Bar from 1979. Bought by Alan & Tony Carley in the 90s (?).
Thoroughly enjoyable evening last night with THE GLOSS x Goodbody Investment Club in the Market Hall at the Irish Stock Exchange - the VERY room in which in 1925 Oonah Keogh began work as the first Irish woman stockbroker #businessasusual@TheGlossMag https://t.co/7QmKkUlsl4
