A Reminder

A Model Farmer and a Model Maker as well


Michael O’Sullivan is a very talented young farmer from Kanturk. When he is not farming he is making model farms. He took a stand at the Ploughing Championship and there he attracted the attention of some famous visitors.

The Kilkenny camogie players recognised Michael’s G.A.A. pedigree.

MEP, Mired McGuinness was interested in Michael’s farm.

Is that George Lee on the left of this picture?
