Shane McNamara has been busy posting another of John Gielty’s slideshows on YouTube. There doesns’t seem to be photos from a specific year for this slideshow but again great photos. Enjoy!
St. Patrick’s Day 2013
Challenging conditions at Dookinella Church
I’m going to create a 2013 page with photos over the next day or two. In the meantime, here’s a snap taken during the blustery wind and rain at Dookinella Church yesterday afternoon.
Leaving Pollagh Church
The band has just left Pollagh Church. Thankfully, the sun has come out and the earlier showers have gone for the time being. Let’s hope the conditions don’t worsen the rest of the day.
The parade has started
Good morning from Achill! It’s a very blustery day and the parade will be bracing for the band and their followers.
The band started at 8:40 by playing at Mollie’s.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day
It’s after midnight in Achill. Happy St. Patrick’s Day. Go to bed and wait for the big drum to wake the band for the parade tomorrow.
