Magazine times its honours for duo

VERY fitting, indeed, that two of Ireland's best known people should receive the gold watch.

Busy people Norma Smurfit and Albert Reynolds know the value of time and how best to use it.

Last night the dynamic duo graciously accepted their dues as clear winners of the People of Our Time Awards organised by Social & Personal magazine. S&P publisher Nell Stewart Liberty hosted the soirée at the Morgan Hotel, in Dublin’s Temple Bar.
