I came to this country as a child refugee. No English, no certainty, no idea what my life could become. Britain gave me refuge.

Not on a timer, not with conditions attached, but with a chance to grow roots.

I took this photo in the Showgrounds in May 2007 & posted it online describing him as "one of the brightest prospects in the league". Tonight, at 37 and surely at the tail end of a stellar career, he put in 98 minutes of pure class as Ireland beat Portugal. Seamie Coleman - stone cold legend

Hey kids, we are a small Irish family business.

We make lovely things by hand.

Could you buy something so we can pay for our Christmas packaging?

Thanks a mill.
