On Sunday, the Limerick Pork Butchers embarked on their highly anticipated annual excursion, with Dublin being the chosen destination. A staggering number of participants, totalling over 900 people, eagerly took part in the event. The train departed from Limerick at 9:30 am and arrived in Dublin at 2:30 pm. Excitement filled the air as the attendees looked forward to the day’s activities.

During their time in Dublin, special arrangements were made for the group. One of the notable highlights was the organized watch exhibition, which has been reported in a separate column. Participants had the opportunity to explore the vibrant city and enjoy various attractions and amenities.

However, on the return journey, the train encountered some delays, causing it to arrive later than expected. Despite the minor setback, the excursion was undoubtedly a memorable experience for the Limerick Pork Butchers, providing them with an enjoyable day filled with camaraderie and excitement.
