The spirit of Michael Davitt is alive and raging in Erris

Yesterday and this evening, the Westside Shell Service Station was the target for our attentions which, thanks be to jaysus, elicited an appreciable drop-off in business at the pumps.

Yesterday's proceedings started with an action from Wayne which put us all in very good heart; where he scaled the back of the building, negotiated his way on to the flat roof of the service area where the true provenance of Shell was laid bare through the aid of his trusty jacket. This evenings proceedings were lightened by two passing young students, Mary Ellen and Kathleen, who promptly joined us after their earnest enquiries on Rossport were answered to their satisfaction. More joy was experienced when another passer by, student, Charlie Burgess similiarly joined us.

Another picket of the same Service Station is in store tomorrow evening from 5.30PM to 6.30PM.

Please join us!.
