It’s a row show in Skibbereen as moustachioed heroes return

Skibbereen came to a standstill yesterday to welcome home its international rowing stars following their efforts at the World Rowing Championships in Sarasota, Florida, last Friday.
Thousands turned out to welcome Team Ireland’s Skibbereen contingent, including medal winners Paul O’Donovan, who defended his men’s lightweight single sculls crown, and Mark O’Donovan and Shane O’Driscoll who won gold in the men’s lightweight pair.
