  2. Local Funny Story

    Share Share Post
    About twenty years ago there lived in Druim two brothers named Pat Bourke and Jim. One day while they were out ploughing they broke a lionk of chain that was attached to the plough. The blacksmith lived two miles away from them so they had to wait until evening to mend it.
