THE Curran family from Moycullen had a memorable day at a wet and windy Ballyconneely Show last Sunday, taking both the junior champion and supreme champion cups back to Glencarrig Stud, where the sire of both champions stands.

The weather gods were not favourable to the west of Ireland venue when, in direct contrast to the day before, relentless rain fell from morning until evening. Luckily, and a credit to the committee, the show grounds were in fantastic order and despite the downpour, underfoot conditions remained good until the end of the day.
