For those who frequent the Augustinian church on Sunday mornings, the reverse is true as each Sunday is made special by the wonderful four-part harmonies and beautiful singing of the choir there.

Buyers and sellers are both achieving their goals and objectives in the O’Donnellan & Joyce auction room.

With less competition in the auction room than in previous years, tremendous value has been obtained for the buyers, in some cases below the advised minimum values.

In addition there were, at varying times, a number of troops camped near Galway.
