Small World!


Here is our friend and neighbour Mrs. Masterson with Spot the dog and her daughter Annette in Ougterargh, Connemara. Annette is a regular reader of this blog. How? Through her Auntie Bridgie, who lives in America. Enterprising Auntie Bridgie discovered our blog by googling Polranny. And the first thing she saw there was a photo of Spot the dog!



Meanwhile, Annette's son Alan, who lives in Australia with his girlfriend, has also become a Polranny Pirates regular. Nowadays he's a chartered accountant, but this is him back in 1982 when he was snapped by Pirate Peti while visiting his grandparents here. We're sure he hasn't changed a bit!

Alan was the first grandchild of Annie and Pat Masterson, our neighbours. He was a very happy little boy and loved to spend as much time as possible on the farm with his Grandparents. The Pirates saw a lot of him at the time. Alan grew up to be an avid soccer player. This was much to his father's regret. His father would have liked it more if he had played Gaelic Football for Galway. Sadly Alan missed out on becoming a star soccer player when he busted his leg in a match. He became an accountant instead, but he still plays soccer.
