    I stand corrected , it must have been Tuesday then :)

    Anyway , WELL DONE , great stuff ....

    I think Celbridge has really pulled itself up by its bootstrings recently , the festival when the golf was on , the new notice boards and this sort of thing


    Really proud to be a resident ( all be it a 11 Year blowin ) of Celbridge.
