    The father refused saying Diabal bróg a geobhadh Siobhan go dtí an la a pósfair i" and by all accounts her first pair of shoes were worn in her wedding day.
    In my grand mothers days the men and women had Sunday shoes. They too walked the mountains barefooted and even the public road until they neared the town and put on their shoes either for Mass or town as the case may be.
