Delighted to report a fantastic concert in the teachers' club last night, very inspirational. Thanks a million to all the performers for sharing your talent and your support with the "Reel Clontarf".

Also delighted with the turnout at the Saturday morning classes today. All 21 teachers and 200 pupils present. Brid and Diarmaid at the desk (as always). Sorry to have lost Marie Connaughton. Around 60 parents turned up at 8.30 as well in a vote of confidence again in our democratically elected committee, a good gathering.

No sign of the new "revitalised" committee who I thought were going to show to try and run our classes. Thank God, it would have been awkward to say the least.

Business as usual at St Gabriels tonight for our U-12, U-15 and U-18 bands and groups.

I dont think the new branch is going to work. Nobody wants it.

By the way Breandán, I feel your loneliness. Did you ever see the film "Dances with Wolves"? Would you consider "goin native". You know you want to..

So happy days everyone. Cluain Tarbh mar a bhí, mar atá agus mar a bheidh go deo.
