Eily’s Report – 19th August

Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my Report.

What a week it has been, weatherwise we were taking cover from the 30 degrees of heat, hours of sunshine as we were asked to spare the water following many weeks without rain, but as always the Good Lord stepped in and gave us some welcome thunder showers at the start of the new week. Don’t forget to say thanks for such a welcome blessing. There was no shortage of places to go and things to do. All Ireland prizes were brought home from the Fleadh in Wexford. It’s not wise to mention names in case I’d forget some but I must mention Jerry Doody’s niece, Katie O Sullivan, who won the All Ireland singing accolade, at the Fleadh. Carrying on the family trait in the footsteps of  her uncle,  granddad  Denny and Granduncle Bertie Doody.  In days gone by no gathering was complete with a few songs from the Doody brothers and they gave of their gifts without reserve. The Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Cullen lad James Lehane brought home the All Ireland U12 Accordion Championship  plus the Munster which he won earlier. Again I recall his  granddad, Den Lehane playing  the accordion in the olden days. In humbler times I needn’t tell you, but people like him kept the spark alive until things improved and those coming after got a better chance to advance on the path of their dreams. Many congratulations to them and to all the winners at this year’s Fleadh.
