It reminded me of the old signage for the bar which still hangs in Cork – a bit distant from the original location.

Hi-friends of ours visited the old S&C and we are on our first trip to Ireland. We will be in the Cork area and wondered when the reunion is scheduled for. Is it held at the original location of the pub?
