REMEMBRANCE

Looking forward to next Tuesday 11th November when the Navan Writers' Group and the Meath Junior Writers' will host a night of remembrance in Navan Library, for those who fought and died in World War 1.
The event will start at 6pm and will be a night of :poetry, prose, drama and song.  A special guest from the recently opened War Museum in Collon will give a presentation on the lives of those who fought or died during the conflict.
John Doyle ' Doyle Photography 'and members of the Meath Arts Group will include a photographic exhibition on the subject.

All are welcome.

I managed to escape!

I was interviewed in September by James Linnane, Peoples Internet Radio 279.

 James has ways and means of making one talk. There was a few technical problems at the start of the interview. I think it's because James introduced the thumbscrew too soon. The first 20 minutes or so were lost but once he disposed of the thumbscrew I recovered sufficiently enough to continue.

I THANK YOU FOR MY TOMORROW

I THANK YOU FOR MY TOMORROW

The news spread quickly
Far and wide
Another Irish son had died
In the cause of World Freedom

While at home in the Emerald Isle
Another son had died
On the streets of Dublin
In the cause of Irish Freedom

Today I honour you both
The Lily and the Poppy
I thank you for the peace I've known
I thank you for my tomorrow.

By,

Michael " The Sheriff " Sheils

Hi folks, I've been away on a secret mission for the past six months but can't speak about it yet!.

My son Paul is heading off to Iceland at the end of the month where he intends trekking 400km solo through the wilderness.  He has set up a facebook page on the subject.

For those of you with a facebook password,click on the facebook link at right of this page for more information.

Part of my disguise while on my secret mission.  Mum's the word. The date on photo is meant to cause confusion.
