Barry Dilworth	Martin, I have never forgotten that night. I've told that story many times.... what's joey up to these days?

Martin Payne	Hi Barry, it’s great to hear from you again. The good old days indeed, I can still remember that night you borrowed your dads’ old Austin A40 and took Joe McGrath and myself for a drive.

Barry Dilworth	Barry Dilworth alive and well in Australia. Great to hear about the good old days and the fantastic memories that go with them.

Editor	Your prayers are asked for the early full recovery of our friend and frequent contributor John Macan of Australia who is fighting a serious illness. John's poems and pics have always been particular favourites here. While on the subject of literary contributions I am deeply grateful to all who have offered. I am running short of material to upload (at one article a day, no wonder!) and would appeal for more, from new readers as well as old. You know the standard by now.

Josephine	I really enjoyed "ceoil agus craic" would like to hear the rest of the story, and see more of those lovely pictures. This continues to be a wonderful site,keep up the good work! It is much appreciated.

Brenda	Hello,info needed please on Fearons and Woods and Carroll families from Newry.

Santanta	Pssst! Watcher, watch yourself , that Editor sounds like a nasty piece of work....sshhhh. don't let him hear us..

Santanta	Watcher; black lines where previously there were none?....mmmmm....sounds more .....paranormal.

Editor	Your glass must always be half-empty, Watcher! Do I hear you say, well, thank you, Editor, for Martin Auden's photo is now twice as wide - a real panorama, in fact - and brighter and sharper? No! You've got a black line! Well! Tough!
