went over with my local gaa club to play hurling in ryslip many yrs ago,we stayed in the crown hotel for the wkend,i met and got talking to loads of old irish lads down the pubs,my heart went out to them, burnt out by work and drink,lot of them had nothing,only go to the local for a dinner on a sunday to watch hurling matches along with a few pints,a lot were ashamed to go home to ireland, didnt do me well thinking about the old lads on my way back home.THEY ARE THE FORGOTTEN IRISH.
