Re: Urgent Please Read - Bogus Members

Hi Bernie. Yes we can pick up RTE up here in Northern Ireland, but unfortunately I wasn't aware of the programme being on. However, I'm sure that some time in the near future they will show a repeat of it, so I will keep a close eye out for that. My wife and I had both a few health problems over the...

Re: Urgent Please Read - Bogus Members

First of all apologies for not posting on the site for quite a while, both my wife and myself have had a few health problems over the last year or so, but I'm delighted to say that 'normal service has been resumed'. I looked in to the site occasionally just to keep a check on it. I have to say I did...

Ruby Murray Engaged

:?: It's been quite some time since I posted anything on the site, although I have been visiting it to keep up with the topics. I have recently been working on a school magazine to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the opening of the school. I was scanning in a report from our local paper The Banbri...

Forty Shades of Green

The story that I have always been told regarding the writing of this song was that Johnny Cash, who was a regular visitor to Ireland, wrote it after flying over Ireland and was amazed at the beautiful colours of the landscape and the great variety of green in the fields. I'm sure members may have mo...

Thanks Bernie for your response to my post. Yes indeed there was an interview with Julia Reardon on the same programme last night when she spoke of the great honour she felt at being asked to play the part. Although she would never claim to be able to sing like Ruby, she explained how on one occasio...

I thought members would be interested to know that tonight (28th February) on local television there was a report on the forthcoming unveiling of the plaque at the Ulster Hall in Belfast. Ulster Television carried the story which included an interview with the Lord Mayor of Belfast, Councillor Walla...

on line at home

:lol: On my last post I mentioned that I hoped to get on line from home. This I have now done. Up until now I have only been able to get onto the site from work, and this obviously restricted my time. For those who may not have seen my earlier posts (before the site was updated) I had the great priv...

Radio Requests

:oops: Firstly, I have to apologise for not making any new posts recently. Presently I only have access to the web at work and we have been quite busy. With regards to Bernie's request to get more air time on local radio, I did in fact e-mail Radio Ulster (George Jones show), unfortunately I receive...
