Bolger's fine hospitality; LETTERS.I WOULD like to thank Jim Bolger James Brendan "Jim" Bolger, ONZ, (born 31 May 1935) was Prime Minister of New Zealand from 1990 to 1997. Early life Bolger was born in Opunake, Taranaki on 31 May 1935 to immigrant farm workers from Wexford, Ireland. He left school at age 15 [1]. for the reception we received at the recent Curragh This article is about the plain in County Kildare. For the racecourse on the plain, see Curragh Racecourse.

Mr Bolger and his staff were extremely informative, accommodating and engaging. We enjoyed a guided tour of the magnificent gallops and were shown all the horses we wished to see. The unsolicited hospitality Mr Bolger displayed in providing us with a generous tea before our departure was greatly appreciated. All he asked in return was that we made a small donation to charity. I am sure I can speak for all the members when I say the welcome we were given exceeded all expectations. Derek McCann Curragh member |
