A bit of a struggle

First the three images:

 Some of the items are related, some random.

ITEMS IN FIRST IMAGE

LETTER
This 1981 letter is a response to an enquiry about an Agricultural College. in Warrenstown. It is for a one -year course.Have no recollection of thinking of sending any of our children there, but maybe one of them did think about it once.
CEREAL BOX
The closing date for the competition on the back of this box is June 1984. I think Irish Cereals may have been taken over by someone else, or else closed down. Interesting that I was eating Muesli that early.

ACCOMMODATION
List of bed and breakfasts in Claremorris 2008. This is the first year I submitted to the Open Exhibition, the time I won the Emerging Artist Award.

TRAINS

 This list of trains and buses to Claremorris is in Tony's writing, so must have been made out before Mary decided to chauffeur Joey and myself.


ITEMS IN SECOND IMAGE

MAP
Map showing where Joey, Mary and I stayed the night of the Opening

DIRECTIONS
Details of the journey from Claremorris to the B&B. It wasn't a great place to stay as the owner was in the midst of re-decorating.

EMAIL
From Joey re B&B

SERVIETTE
From second visit to Claremorris later that month when Tony and I cam with Lauren to see the whole exhibition.


ITEMS IN THIRD IMAGE

MAP

INSTRUCTIONS
Telling me what I had to do as an exhibitor

LIST
Names of those who exhibited that year including handwritten notes about what medium some of them used.


NOTE: I called this post 'A Bit of a Struggle' as I am having real difficulty throwing out the Claremorris stuff.
So I have decided that YES, I will put it in the re-cycling box.
BUT ...
Keep an eye of the SNEAKY SNEAKY post as it could happen that I might take it out again!
