I was delighted to be invited as guest speaker to outline my work as a writer of short stories and poetry . The audience in Ballycastle’s Sheskburn Hall was very welcoming and I appreciated the opportunity to offer my books for sale afterwards. A sell-out!
It was Patrick O’Donnell’s last session as Chairman and as his final official duty in that role he presented me with a generous token of thanks.
He thanked the new chairman, Mark Gavin for his success in securing major sponsorship from the Awards For All programme which is funding an expansion of services for this thriving U3A branch.
