Delighted that Garry Cotter, editor at the #NenaghGuardian gave my post event review at full page in today’s paper, thank you.

For the weekend that's in it...listen back to the recent @historyireland.bsky.social #hedgeschool held at @electricpicnic.bsky.social on Irish-US relations since 1920 (especially because we're in it)

That's surely not Burke you're talking about, who was educated in a hedgeschool with his Catholic cousins?
