Meath Writers' Circle.
The Meath Writers' Circle held their monthly get together in the comfortable surroundings of The Castle Hotel in Trim tonight with readings on everything from favourite poems to the odd bit of history, with battles fought in the distant and not to distant past, much to the fore. Tommy Murray read of whiskey, a subject dear to many hearts, while Jimmy Peppard read of a man who left Bohermeen many years ago and died in London. Michael Shiels read from favourite poems about that bridge in Athlone while Paul Martin was on to satellite shopping channels and Willie G Hodgins entertained with some delightful stuff penned since our last meeting. Sean Reilly read a prose piece about meeting Brian Cowen on Kennedy Road in Navan or thereabouts, and finally James Linnane dropped in with news of a night at the Steps Public House which happens to be tomorrow night and read a couple of poems to boot. More about this anon, if the creek don't rise!
