“Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103
We thank Presenter, John Greene for advance information on this Sunday evening’s programme – 13th Feb. 2022 at 7pm on C103. (S.R.)
Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 13th Feb.
Because of our historical past, this year is significant and bound to be a year of commemoration and in certain cases celebration.
Because of Covid-19 restrictions and lockdown, many centenary events were cancelled last year, but will be carried over to this year.
One such event will be the Battle of Clonmult – the 101st anniversary of which falls on Sunday week, February 20th.
On this week’s edition of ‘Where The Road Takes me’, John Greene looks back at the IRA’s heaviest defeat in a single engagement, during the War of Independence.

As part of their visit, Denis and John viewed the Educational Learning Hub in Drishane Direct Provision Centre which hosts classes for the Asylum Seekers and is run and funded by CETB and Millstreet FET centre. The biggest news is that there will be an Official Opening of the Centre in the near future as we moved in here during the Covid lockdown and did not get a chance to do this. All learners will be invited to this event for a celebration and presentation of QQI Certificates.
