Print: $15.33 Tim’s bar was always full as the hole could be seen if you stood on the seat near the window. The old stuffed fox was put out in the lounge where it would not be in the way. Tim had changed the seat to stands and put a big long board on the window where people could put their pints down as they stretched their necks to see the unseen.
It took a while, but in the end it happened, who started it I don’t know, but there had to be one and then all joined in, yes empting the wheelie bins and not have to buy tickets, more money for beer. This hole of all holes was the place for the street and let me tell you people from other streets came to get rid of their rubbish. one day someone dropped a fridge to try and hear it land, but not a sound was heard, that was just the start, then it was old cars, a van and broken furniture, the Garda, i.e., the police were throwing flares, yet their lights disappeared after a couple yards into the hole. and other stories.Tipperary, where strange things happen?

Print: $18.17 Download: $6.98 The sun was shining as we walked down the lane and across Silver Street, A day I will remember for the rest of my life, it was the first journey away from home, it was a giant step for me and a huge step for my brother.
A short walk in the other direction led to Morgan’s where we got penny ice pops made in egg cups, we would run across the road to the yellow little shop called John Fury’s, two sweets for a penny and three if it was Mrs Fury was behind the counter, then a few doors down and its Pat O Connor's where we got our lucky bags, and my first gamble.
It was not long after we went that extra step. We were travelling down Silver Street pass the shoemaker's shop where the smell of leather and glue filled the air, then on too the travel agent Martin Green's where you could get a ticket to the USA or the leg of a goat, most times the people who went in for a ticket came out with there dinner under there arm.

As a result, Rita desperately tried to get a grip on herself as she silently followed him.
In the bathroom, Rita finally spoke.
But when she did, she wished she hadn’t.
