KIERAN TRIES TO STAY CHEERFUL

White Row author Dr Kieran Hickey has turned his attention from climate change to the vagaries of Ireland’s recent weather. The summer of 2009 broke all rainfall records, and the subsequent November was the wettest month in two hundred years. Kieran’s Deluge: Ireland’s weather disasters 2009-10 (Open Air) examines these phenomena, and much more besides. It will be interesting to hear what he makes of this year’s exceptionally nippy winter. No doubt we will hear in due course!

NOSTALGIA IN BOOK FORM

In June, Regent House’s class of ’69 reassembled in Newtownards for its first reunion in over forty years. Former pupils flew in from Canada, Saudi Arabia, and Australia for a weekend of celebration. As well as touring the school – very little of which they now recognised! – they enjoyed dinner in the town hall, and a boat trip to the enigmatic Copeland Islands, the history of which is, of course, set out in White Row’s blockbusting, Portavo. The tour was led by Dr Trevor McCavery, who as well as being one of our authors, is Regent’s current headmaster. By way of appreciation, fellow White Row author Desi Rainey presented the school with a copy of his A Taste of Old Comber (2002 and still selling.) Catch the photos on YouTube!
