When I was 10 my mother sent me to Superquinn for bread in bakery. I was too small to be seen over counter & failed in task. She mentioned it to Feargal Quinn when she met him in Blackrock. A week later they’d wooden lollipop signs with “I’m shopping for my Mum”😀 #customerservice

Went up to look at the stolpersteine (stumbling stones) that were recently unveiled in Dublin 8 in memory of Irish victims of the Holocaust. They are placed outside St. Catherine's National School where Ettie Gluck attended as a child - she was murdered in Auschwitz in 1942.
