Thank you, Betty! So happy you are enjoying these posts.

The bingo game I had in mind didn't work out. Everyone drinking but no one playing bingo. I will keep searching.

No one can tell a story the way you do, Mary, except maybe your relatives and ancestors. Blessings on the memory men of the Cleggan Disaster and their families on this All Hallow's Eve.

I don't think I have any Irish ancestors, but I've always felt Irish in some way. This story, somehow, makes me feel even more Irish! Thank you Mary. This is just wonderful.

Re bingo, that sounds like the American version—fools!

Yes, I love your stories of Ireland!

Are you ready for winter?
