If you missed the programme, you can watch it on the RTÉ Player (until February 22nd)
One may view the excellent programme on the RTÉ Player. Anne Keane and Con Herbert were among those who coordinated the most enjoyable set dancing workshop. The programme will undoubtedly be hugely beneficial to the overall enterprise and we are all truly motivated to visit Sherkin with its truly exquisite, beautiful scenery where I spent my very first holiday as a teenager with the wonderfully welcoming O’Connor Family. We all wish Michael & Kathy the greatest of success. Now we share some more still images which I recorded as I watched the programme tonight.
A long way from Millstreet Town in view of Claramore
To Sherkin Island and Sherkin North Shore
Where their dreams of an alternative lifestyle Michael and Kathy O Connor pursue
In their case fortune favours the brave happen to be true
A down to earth person untainted by conceit
Michael a well known veterinarian from the Town of Millstreet
Perhaps in his early sixties with Kathy his wife
Is brave to take up a new challenge in life
There has been a program on them with the Brennan Brothers on Irish t v
Their successful project on Sherkin North Shore part of their lives destiny
To start a business on Sherkin Island is quite a challenge to face
In what is quite a lonely but a beautiful place
Of the O Connor family achievements there is much to talk of and write
Sean Radley has written an article on them with photographs on the Millstreet Website
On Sherkin they offer reasonably priced accommodation for families and groups for a quiet holiday
In peaceful surroundings from the noisy big towns and cities in miles far away
Far from the Town in view of Clara a new way of life
For Michael O Connor and Kathy his wife
Of their lives they have a good story to tell
And on Sherkin North Shore they are doing rather well.
