"Blood Drenched Children". "We Are Lost". Aoibheann McNamara, proprietor of the Ard Bia restaurant in Quay Street and Seamus Sheridan, head honcho of Sheridan's Cheesemongers in Church Yard Street organised a collection today at the farmers’ market in Church Yard St in order to assist the beleaguered Lebanese who run the slow food market in Beirut - the moneys raised will be divided among the various families struggling to survive in their city and country viciously wasted by the Israelis. Aoibheann ; “saddened constantly as dear friends email me from Beirut unable to evacuate as they are not ‘precious foreigners’. They email images of blood drenched children, they email lines like ‘we are lost,’’’ clearly, was not prepared to stand idly by wringing her hands and sobbing crocodile tears but did something. She liased with Seamus and today’s pristine empathy was the result – Seamus is the noted anti-war activist who, prior to the criminal attack on Iraq, closed his shop in order to march in a Galway Alliance Against War organised demonstration along with his staff, all clad in their white work gear. In a 24th August article in the Galway Advertiser (see link) she vowed to return to Beirut along with Seamus “to personally give the money to Kamel Mouzawak (the head of Slow Food Lebanon who started and heads the first farmers’ market there) to distribute to the families in most need”.

Nice Flag ,
Where did you get it and how much was it ? Can't get them here.
The flag was was made by another IPSC activist; Geraldine McDermott - there are oodles of websites where one can purchase one, Mr Flag for instance (see link).
The flag was Made. Well , I'm humbled, it is excellent. Well done Geraldine Mc Dermott.
I dont have a credit card so I dont get anything off the Internet..
How did geraldine make the Tree insignia?
Thanks for your time TD.
Many thanks for your interest. Phone me on 091 587354 or 085 7631431 'n, hopefully, I'll get Geraldine to divulge her trade secrets or else to machine and post one on to you on the basis that now is not the time to be dogs-in-the-manger and that you'll be flying it with pride in Dublin on the International Day of Action, Saturday, 23rd September?.
well done Galway! Ye are always to the fore on generous and full hearted solidarity.
'n for good measure the Homeplate whist Owen is sent back to Castlerea gaol to do some more porridge. He's in Dublin High court tomorrow applying for bail.
