Cork Mens All Ireland 09

I travelled to Dublin the weekend 20th Sept to the mens All Ireland with the hope of Cork beating Kerry-oh how sweet would that have been... I went up with a few people from home and we enjoyed our weekend considering the result of the game. I was so disappointed after the game though.. The atmosphere in Croke Park was savage and the Cork support was massive, it was just unfortunate that they lost out on the day! The morning of the game O Connell Street was packed with both sets of supporters and there was loads of people trying to sell and swap tickets.. Next year we will all hope the Cork men will be back stronger than ever!!

Cork Ladies Home-Coming

Last night myself and a few of the girls from college went in to the south mall to welcome home the victorious Cork Senior Ladies Football team who have achieved 5 All Irelands in a row. There was a great atmosphere. There was a big crowd to meet and greet them and being a former member of the team myself in winning four All Irelands it was great to see all the girls and the management to congratulate them. The team then left the Imperial Hotel and then ventured down to the village of Killeagh in East Cork to continue the celebrations with the Brendan Martin cup because the captain is from Inch Rovers in Killeagh.

Third Year In College

Now that I am back to college im beginning to settle into Cork again. Third year will be tough but I will be looking forward to our work experience in the second semester. This week is freshers week in college so there will be loads of events happening in the students centre so it will be good crack!!
