The Yacht pub in Ringsend recently held a party in honour of the senior citizens in the area.
Organised by Bernie Smith, Philip Grey and the late John Farrell of the Old Folks committee in The Yacht, the party was supported by contributions from local business.

The 32 party-going pensioners who arrived on April 5th last, were treated to a night of complimentary drinks, spot prizes for everyone plus dancing and a good old-fashioned sing-song. MC for the night was local man Robert Curtis.

According to The Yacht’s owners Bob and Monica Prior, the Spring Chicken night– as it was christened– was a great success with the craic and the ceol carrying on until the wee small hours.
