Congrads and well done to Veronica and Des on thge anniversary Book. Have spent most of the day recovering from the night before, on the sofa reading this masterpiece! Great information, pictures and have found myself laughing out loud as i read some of it, and wondering what the full details of “the funniest Erris moments” were. well done to everyone who worked on this book. The joy of winning and the heartbreak of losing are so well depicted by all!
ITS A TREASURE
