I was myself once a part of Limerick in the rare old times. It makes me bitter also to see it in such distress and with the new immigrants that will never be a part of the Irish people and their traditions.

[@noelpucarua2843]

It sounds like you too are an immigrant. Isn't that enough to be bitter about?

[@jasoncowell5133]

With people like you around it's no surprise they wouldn't feel welcomed.

[@noelpucarua2843]

Do you mean fellas from Cork?

Lyrics to Limerick in the rare old times

[@noelryan6341]

What a coincidence. Willie was a great man for organising 'Twenty Mile Walk' and other fitness events. I lived in Rathbane, around the corner from his brother Joe & Family. Great connections to the Limerick Leader.

I worked in M and M Walshes Meat 🍖 factory 🏭 in Raheen Ind estate in sep 95 to Jan 96. A very cold 🥶 job packing rashers. People use to leave the job after a day or a week.Nice people working 💪 😊there. One rough or two guys 👦 there in the curing room. In the 90s hard to get a job in Raheen. Even harder now with all the high tech jobs. More important things in life then jobs.😅😊
