WALLY O'SULLIVAN MEMORIAL CUP.

IT WAS A BIG DAY IN THE LITTLE HARBOUR OF BRAY COUNTY WICKLOW ON SUNDAY 19 AUGUST. A FISHING COMPETITION RUN BY THE O'SULLIVAN FAMILY ANNUALLY, TO RAISE MONEY FOR LOCAL CHARITIES AND IN PARTICULAR CANCER SUPPORT. BASICALLY HOW IT WORKS IS YOU TURN UP, GO FISHING FOR 5 HOURS,FANCY DRESS IS OPTIONAL AND JUST ENJOY YOURSELF. THEM ARE THE RULES. NOW THAT THE LITTLE DETAILS ARE OUT OF THE WAY THE BIG STUFF KICKS IN. WE ALL GO TO THE BEER GARDEN OF THE HARBOUR BAR AND HAVE A BALL. EVERYONE GETS A FEW BEERS AND A BURGER AT THE BBQ. SINGING IS OPTIONAL. NOW THE PURPOSE OF ALL THIS IS, IN A WORD, CHARITY. THE LOCAL CANCER SUPPORT GROUP COLLECTED A CHEQUE FOR €4,885. THE RNLI ALSO RECEIVED AN AMOUNT AS DID A LOCAL SPINAL UNIT. SO NEXT YEAR YOU ARE ALL INVITED. IF YOU HAVE A BOAT AND WANT TO ENTER THE COMPETITION AND WIN A PRIZE (EVERYONE GETS ONE) JUST EMAIL ME AT LARRYBYRNE@IOL.IE AND I WILL GIVE YOU THE INFO YOU NEED. BELOW YOU WILL SEE JUST A FEW OF THE PICTURES TAKEN ON THE NIGHT. I WILL BE PUTTING MORE UP SO COME BACK AND HAVE A LOOK. THANKS FOR VISITING THE SITE.
