Lehanmora Pantomime – Behind the scenes

Sunday 30/12/2018 Richie

Lehanmora Pantomime – Behind the scenes where all the action is. The Pantomime has been a huge success this year. Lots of people involved, Billy and Carina writing the original script. Which of course changes as the practices go by to add in more fun to the show.

Many thanks to the Women’s shed and Ger for creating costumes. A special mention for recently departed Desie Merrigan for writing the great song used in the Panto. “The Blowins and the locals should be friends”

Billy Murray for the set, with help from Ryan, Lilly and Lucy.

Back stage much needed help from Sarah who prompts any one of us who forgets their lines, and Nadette for the fantastic make up.

Watch a short film from back stage here – sound on?

The last collection An Post Allihies

An Post Office Allihies, “The Last Collection” Allihies An Post Office, “The Last Collection”, filmed a while back and put together now that there are only a few months left. Good luck to Eily on her retirement when it happens. The village will be lost without the Post Office, I guess it is a case of being a business before a service….. Ireland will lose the furthest Post Office from Dublin, Allihies will lose a service and a social meeting point. Tourists will see the effects of dying villages on the “Wild Atlantic Way”….

Watch the video here, turn on the sound

Mr and Mrs Harrington, Sandra and Alan had a great day on Friday at their wedding. The weather was kind enough to them. The ceremony was brilliantly done by the priest, what a very enjoyable service. Then on to photo shoots and finally the reception at the Beara Coast Hotel. The service and food was absolutely excellent.
