Our Member Jim Hyde has released a new book. Check out his message below and be sure to pop into one of his launches to get your hands on a copy for yourself. Best of luck Jim!
This week sees the first launches of the new book, The Super 7 Towns & Villages of West Waterford, by Jim Hyde. Many thanks to everyone who helped put the book together, across all the different places.
Lots of ideas, suggestions and corrections came up, which added to the quality of the book immensely. Also, some people have far better cameras and phones than I ever will, so a special thank you to those who cheerfully lent a great pic or two: Eddie Dee Photography, Dungarvan; Ann O’Brien, Villierstown; Jo Bell, Cappoquin; and Andrew Malcolm, Lismore.
With over 400 colour photographs, hopefully everyone will find something in it to keep them visiting and enjoying West Waterford in all its glory.
It would be great to see you at a launch – if you have any queries, email [email protected] or DM me on Facebook (facebook.com/james.hyde.372). The launches are:
Lismore Heritage Centre, 3pm, 21 Nov (Thurs)

Maureen’s bar, Aglish, 11am, 23 Nov (Sat)

I also want to thank the following for providing great nibbles at the launches: Fuller’s Bistro, Lismore; XL Siopa, Aglish; and Tory’s Bakery, Villierstown.
