I have just begun to read a book by a respected historian, Bernadette Cunningham: Medieval Irish Pilgrims to Santiago. Already she has thrown coconuts at tradition. She is so right!
However, the main reason for me trying to elbow my way in with a thread is an article I have just read about a guy who was an endless feature on national news programmes, till he wasn't.
He was diagnosed with Motor Neuron disease, but he is not sitting down under the diagnosis.
Just recently he was instrumental in raising a phenomenal amount of money for two charities, through his climb up to the summit of a holy place of pilgrimage in Ireland, one recognised by Bernadette, the historian named above.
I think it will be possible to access the article, but if not, and you are interested, send me a pm and I can copy and paste as I subscribe to the paper the article is in.
Nearly €3.5m raised. And Charlie’s not finished yet
