Yes, I've noticed that Ireland's Own has become quite modern in its own way, while remaining as nostalgic as ever.Maolsheachlannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09406722311993627528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7091756463128804432.post-75737474822868420252017-03-07T23:27:27.241-08:002017-03-07T23:27:27.241-08:00Somehow IRELAND'S OWN brings back childhood me...Somehow IRELAND'S OWN brings back childhood memories for me also, even though I don't think my parents actually bought it. We must have got the odd edition from somewhere. I've probably only had my hands on two or three editions in the last twenty years, but what struck me was the timelessness of it, yet the fact that they weren't living in the past either; internet use might play a big part in a short detective story, a feature on a particular town in Ireland would make mention of immigrants from Pakistan who run the local B&B,a short story would feature a priest who needs counselling etc.<br />Glad you're being appreciatedSéamusnoreply@blogger.com
