Great night out at Horseware party
ON Friday night, I headed for the Lisdoo where the Horseware Christmas Party was in full swing and the place was really buzzing in anticipation of an excellent night.
I wasn’t too long in the door when I met up with Angela Woods from Lis Na Ri and Mary Grimes from Avenue Road who told me they were really looking forward to a great night and this marked the start of Christmas.
Not too far away I then got talking to Pauline Bingham from Wolfetone Terrace and Eithne Markey from Knockbridge who were both on for making it a real night to remember amongst their friends.
After this I got a word with David Mulligan from Chapel Road Omeath and David Egan from Stonetown who said it was early in the proceedings and everything was quiet, but they certainly weren’t expecting the night to stay like that!
I headed over for a quick word with Alan Hillard from Doolargy Avenue and Rosaleen Englishby from Kingscourt who assured me it was going to be a wild night and no mistake.
Not too long later I then managed a few words with Emma McAleavy from Castleross and Jenny Myles from Kingscourt who were joined by Lisa Kearns from Riverside Drive told me the few drinks were going down easy and it was going to be an outrageous night.
Making my way through the crowds I then caught up with cousins Carol Duffy from Louth Village and Tina Lee from Farndreg who certainly don’t stand on ceremony when they get out and were expecting a festive celebration unlike any other.
Making my way over to another table I then had the pleasure of speaking to some of the main organisers of the party and they included Anne Newell from Oaklawns who was up for making the best of the night with Anita Lennon from Ardee, Ciara Jeffers from Tom Bellew Avenue, Tara Brady from Blackrock and Michele Magee from Ardee who told me they were quietly confident that the night was going to be a huge success.
Not too far away I then got talking to Roisin Campbell from Crossmaglen, Lorraine McGuinness from Dromiskin and Michelle Murphy from Dunmahon who assured me it was going to be a very quiet affair and they’d all be home nice and early!
Making my way over to another table I then got a word with Marina Hope from Newry, Jacqueline Lewis from Louth Village and Mary Thompson from Inniskeen who assured me it was going to be a major party night and no mistake.
After this I headed over for a word with Ivonna Mike from Garrybawn and Indra Kabaca from Avondale who were who were in great form and up for making the best of the party with all their workmates.
But not too far away I then caught up with Lee Brennan from Fatima and Aidan Rice from Aghameen Park who was up for a wild one with the rest of the lads at the table Robbie Kieran from Hillview, Gerry Curran from Marian Park Gerard McKeown from Muirhevnamor, Sean Larkin from Glenmore and Arvidas Pauliuka from Bellewsbridge Road who told me that this was his 11th Horseware Christmas Party he has been at. He celebrated 10 years with the company and they threw him a party in the canteen where he got a cake to mark the decade, well impressed, well impressed!
Making my way to another table I then got talking to Emma McCabe from Kilcurry and Emma Kearney from Drogheda who tried to tell me it was going to be a quiet party, eh no such thing girls.
Close by I then got a word with Siobhan McDonagh from Ard Easmuinn, Linda Curtis from Newtownbalregan Nicola Elber originally from Derbyshire but now living in Ravensdale, Tara Murphy from Knockbridge, Guang Yang from Adelphi Apartments and Miri- am Bosaea from Bridge Street who were all looking extremely well, were enjoying their meal and were ready for a major night of fun together.
After this I caught up with Margaret Johnson from St. Alphonsus Villas and Rose McCarthy from Greenacres who told me it was going to be a lovely night with all their friends.
Finally, before I departed I caught up with Billy Tuft who wanted a big shout out for Carol and Cailim as well as Raymind, Edel and ‘ the cubs’ and to wish all his fans a very happy Christmas.
