Meet on the street

Well met on the street the other day, Maurice Baxter and John Mitchell are a pair of Kilcullen stalwarts in a town that is changing rapidly in size and people.

There is probably no better combined knowledge of the countryside and river walks in the Kilcullen area than these two have and at an age when many others would have succumbed to Couch Potato Syndrome or Premiership TV Paralysis, they are living examples of the benefits of outdoor leisure and appreciation of the bounties of nature that are still available to us all.

Always good to meet you, lads.
