It is now for sale at €20 in Ryan’s Centra, St. Michael’s Villas, Ennis Book Shop, Abbey St., O’Connor’s Newsagent, the Market and Ennis Parish Office or by contacting Cora on coramcnulty@gmail.com. SMV70 choir will perform this Friday evening from 7pm to 8pm in Dunnes Mall in aid of the Alzheimers Society.
