....is organised by the Bundoran H-Block Committee : I have been asked to point that fact out because , in my previous post (above) , I wrote -

'Although the hunger-strikers are remembered all year-round by this Movement , the Bundoran parade is the main RSF hunger strike event of the year .'

Rather , it is the main annual hunger-strike commemoration attended by , amongst others , members of RSF .
Apologises for any confusion caused !

Sharon .

One thing i noticed about the Casement Park rally was the lack of Ex-Blanketmen. Well those not in the employ of SF anyway. I wonder have THEY gone away?
