    Some time in the 1950's my father rescued a swimmer in difficulties at Ballybunion. When he got the casualty to shore a group of people came to offer help , one of the helpers was an off-duty nurse.......and that's how my Mother and Father came to meet.
    A tad off-topic I know but a nice story all the same...:)
