PAT O’NEILL’S Captain’s Outing was held over the weekend with 27 souls from Portsalon Golf Club descending on Carlingford for golf on Friday and Saturday.
Despite a poor result in the rugby for Ireland, spirits were high and plenty laughs were had by all.
Thanks to Vice-Captain Stephen Connolly for organising and to Greenore GC for hosting two days of golf.
