- Over 30 or 60 years ago there were market’s held in Monirea, on all Fridays of the year.

Those market’s were better than the market’s now because all the farmer’s attended. In other places the people went to a fair or market but they exchanged a pig for a certain amount of potatoes and a horse for a cow and other animals as well.
