Very inspiring thoughts from our President as always. Social justice and climate justice go hand in hand. We need to move much faster to achieve the societal changes evoked by Michael D. Higgins in this powerful address. lnkd.in/eHMmMcRE

We launched the Mayfly from the St Michael’s Boatclub slipway in Limerick on 25 April. Not without difficulty - if Dan Clancy had not done some heroic underwater work to release a jammed winch, the boat would never have left its trailer. The next day Pat…lnkd.in/dp_EaUxc
