bit of time on my ands lads and just wanted to say Hello and pass on my best wishes to all the uibh Fhaili hurling supporters .... hope your good days return soon!
always admired your great teams of the 80's and 90's who put it up to the big boys even with a tiny pick!
Keep the faith!
(and come visit us down in the lovely deise ... we share a great hatred for KK and Tipp)

Up the Deise indeed. And very welcome you are. I live with a load of rebels and it would have been great if you could have taken them this year. Next year perhaps.
By the way, who is Lafcadio Hearn?
