I'm not an avid reader and haven't read all that many books, but I'm enjoying it more that I am retired. What's so good about Little Chapel on the River is it is about real people, and I think I can really enjoy reading every post on this blog. I can see one connection that may be grasping at straws because I'd love to be part of this special family.

Any one who attends saint Josephs would know that. Guinans has never been about getting drunk. They dont cater to the problem. I can attest from my own personal experiance with the guinans that they were a very caring family and never wanted any on to suffer from the afflictions of alcohol or drugs. And besides all that how about the great ham and cheese sandwichs and the yoo hoo. Guinans is way more than a pub its your own personal experience and what you make it. Dont use the excuse that you dont drink for not going there if you do its your loss,and your missing out on a great social incounter of the irish kind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
