Paddy Dinnegan

Paddy Dinnegan, Longford, County Longford, Ireland. Passed by this gentleman so many times, we both make great use of the Royal Canal in Longford Town. Chatting to him for a few minutes he was telling me, he spent most of his life as beef farmer, and for twenty years worked in a factory. Day evening and night shift, at Burlington, Tarmon, that made denim jeans. He did not mind the transition as a farmer, the natural life of being on a farm to factory, was quite proud of the factory work he did. Likes to walk almost everyday on Canal near his home, and also told me Dinnegan is a great name around these parts there is quite a few of us he said in Longford.
