Coming up next Wednesday night, thanks to Cllr. Liam Brazil and his colleagues, there will be an evening of Mental Health & Wellbeing in St. Brigid's Hall, Kilrossanty starting at 6.30pm.
All are welcome to attend. As we head into the darker months, it is good to have as many tricks as possible to stave away the winter blues.
Fair play to Liam & co for all their hard work getting this set up, hopefully they will have a good crowd there to support the event!

Edited to add: Thank you all for your lovely messages, it wasn't my intention but I appreciate every single one. As ye are all so good to follow and support the blog, it only felt right that you should know what's happening and it has eased my mind a bit that you don't think I've lost interest.
There will be some photos popping up over the next few weeks and we'll see how we're going then. Again, thank you all so much 💚💛

I've added an update to the blog to show proof of life and explain why I've been a bit MIA. Pop over and have a read: https://kilrossantyremembers.wordpress.com/2026/10/15/a-little-update/

UPDATE: The sign is back in place, remedial works haven't fixed the warping but we will get it sorted soon

In case you pass the sign and wonder why it has been replaced (temporarily) by the one below... Over the last week or so, Catherine and I have noticed some bowing or warping starting to show, apparently this is due to the weight of the sign and possibly the wrong adhesive, so, the sign is gone for a spa treatment to get it back to its beautiful self. We hope to have it back in place by Saturday, where it will stay for a long time hopefully!
In the meantime, scanning the QR code will bring you to the KR blog and a large version of the sign. We will update here once it is back in situ.
