Not Political but something I thought may be of interest. It’s a card delivered to each door in the Parish inviting residents to call into the local Roman Catholic church, with mass times, office hours, and contact details etc. Shows how times have changed.
Many thanks to the sender

Slighty away from the normal topics, a selection of Trócaire posters from various of their campaigns.  A number of Trócaire’s targeted campaigns are represented here.
When I got these (many thanks to the sender) I remembered the Trócaire Boxes of my youth, where now its my children that have them each lent. I’d love to get some older posters or indeed older images of Trócaire boxes as they were very much part of us growing up.

Trócaire on the web.
