SPORT: (1) We wish Eamonn Og & Paul the best of luck with the Kerry team V Cavan on Sunday. (2) What about this for a record? The Finuge/St. Senans Ladies Football Club will contest 5 finals over the next 10 days. Congrats to all and the best of luck. (3) Lixnaw hurlers have qualified for the County Hurling Senior Semifinal. It was a great achievement and well done to the many players who answered the call when the club badly needed willing bodies to perform. Well done all. I am reminded of the powerful words of Mohammed Ali “Champions are not made in gyms, champions are made from something they have deep inside them - - a desire a dream a vision. They have to have the skill and the will. But the will must always be stronger than the skill”.
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
Three things that never return are: -
The Past
The missed opportunity
The spoken word
