In the second hour of today's programme, Damien heard about a group of 19 schoolchildren in the Butlerstown area who are currently without a school bus to Tramore for next week.

As we marked the 99th anniversary of the death of Michael Collins, we featured a chat with Dr John Healy, speaking for the first time publicly about his late Dad who was the medic that broke the news of Michael's death at Beal Na Blath to the Collins' family.

Jamie Dower of Spraoi spoke about Spraoi Prism; we discussed the issue of farm safety; and the show also featured a chat with Agnes Aylward from the Lafcadio Hearn Japanese Gardens in Tramore. She has just been awarded a Commendation of the Foreign Minister of Japan for her outstanding contribution to the promotion of mutual understanding between Ireland and Japan!
