The Local FairsThe local fairs are Bridgetown Wexford and Taghmon. The fairs are held in villages as well as towns. The local fairs are held in streets. Luck money is given when a bargain is made. The seller would hold out his hand and the buyer would strike him on the hand. Sometimes the seller would spit on the money for luck. The halter or a rope is always given with horses when sold. There are special sales for sheep.James Breen
