Yesterday.
Portmarnock, north county Dublin.
Mums Caroline O’Leary, Kathleen Burke and Helen Conlan met at the Coombe Women & Infants University Hospital in August 1991, their babies born within 12 hours of one another.
They formed a strong friendship and before leaving the Hospital, agreed to meet the following year when the babies were one year old.
The families have met every year since on Portmarnock Beach and this week they met to mark the children’s 30th birthdays.
In fairness.

sweet
yeah sweet cause they seem to have cake and ice cream.
That’s so lovely!
well that’s made me smile this morning!
Lovely story. Thank you for sharing
Great: BS should have used forenames only and had a competition to match mums with their children!
Some of the three should marry each other for ultimate rom-com potential.
Jolly way to mark birthdays.
Brilliant idea and surprised to see no nasty comments by the BS rabble, as is the norm
