As promised here is an account of the residents of Linen Hall Square
at the close of the War (WW2). There
were 76 houses and a number of other facilities such as a disused hospital,
handball alleys etc. so we will have to tell this story in several parts! |

Now that it’s all over, let me be the first (you mean, I’m NOT??) to congratulate you, the Prince of Wales on your marriage to your very own Cinderella. It’s been a busy week for you, what with socialising with President Mugabe, attending the Pope’s funeral in Rome and then wedding your very own (well, almost!) Princess Camilla on Saturday. |

For as far back as I can remember my Mum had the 'cure of all cures' for colds, flu, bronchitis etc. This was referred to as a ‘wee cough bottle’. There may have been a lot of Newry Mums who acquired this pharmaceutical knowledge but there was none other that I personally can recall.
Often enough came the request from neighbours, family and friends,
“Mary could you make me up a wee cough bottle, for I’m dying on my feet”.
As the saying goes, ‘It’ll either kill or cure you.’ Thankfully it was mainly the latter! BELOW 1973 Olwen Dean, her Mum mary and James's wife Diana: sozzled!!
