When the going gets tough, ask for Thomas O'Connor‪!‬ Heartbeat of Ireland

O'Connors Famous Pub in Salthill, Galway, Ireland, is one of my favourite places for a pint, a friendly chat, and to listen to some live Irish music, but that's not the only boost for us all in this popular Salthill hostelry. Here in this story, I tell how in 1942, Thomas O'Connor, Snr, the Don of the O'Connor family, survived the crisis that was WWII, (we called it 'The Emergency'), and thrived in its aftermath. 

Take heart if you own a business that is closed these days because of the Covid restrictions. There are better days ahead.

I hope you are enjoying these stories, oh, and if you are, do please share them with your friends and family.

I record these stories with Tom O'Connor of O'Connor's Bar, in Salthill, more commonly known as 'O'Connor's Famous Bar, Salthill' because of its unique atmosphere, friendly welcome and amazing music each night!
