When MHR met HRH in Dublin on Wednesday protocol was brushed aside and there was a down to earth discussion on head-gear. There will be a follow-up between Kilgarvan Post Office and Buckingham Palace.
And the upshot of the chat is that a cap or two – new ones – will be posted in Kilgarvan to Buckingham Palace as soon they can be acquired by the Kilgarvan Post Master himself.
Meet and Greet
“Yesterday evening I met with Prince Harry and Megan Markle at the British Ambassadors home in Dublin, said Michael Healy Rae, TD.
“During the meet and greet Prince Harry said he liked my cap and would it be possible to send him one to Buckingham Palace and that is the moment captured in the photograph here,” said Mr. Healy Rae.
Taoiseach and President
The royal couple were on a two-day visit to Dublin where they were greeted by Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and visited President Michael D Higgins in Áras an Uachtaráin.
The prince said that they were please to make Ireland their first international visit together as a married couple and he hoped that it would be the first of many.
Put the Cap on It
The visit was a great success by all accounts and, to put the cap on it, the newly weds ran into Michael Healy Rae and the caps are on their way to the palace.
The Maine Valley Post has, is and always will be a free resource for the people of the locality and its wider diaspora.
When we started in 2013, the intention was to be a weekly, online newsletter. Over time, the site has evolved into a much different beast with multiple updates on a daily basis.
Because of its nature as a digital publication, it brings with it certain expenses: computers and cameras that require updating and maintenance; internet hosting and access; to say nothing of the time and hard work that goes into the site. It all adds up…
Our online community has always been our greatest asset and a vocal supporter of the Maine Valley Post since day one.
