Bray flies the flag for Olympic boxing hopefuls

Olympic fever has swept through Bray, Co Wicklow, as the town sends two of its own to the London Games.

The town is bedecked in Olympic decorations sending good wishes to boxers Katie Taylor and Adam Nolan, dubbing them ‘The Pride of Bray’.

To kick off celebrations, a large street party will be held tonight from 6pm on the main street. The celebration will include a giant LED screen showing the opening ceremony in London, where Katie will carry the Irish flag.
