Supporters plan cards for jailed famer Nally

Supporters of jailed farmer Padraig Nally are urging people to send Christmas cards to him in prison.

The 61-year-old bachelor has been jailed for six years for the manslaughter of Traveller John 'Frog' Ward on Nally's property in October 2004.

The Padraig Nally Support Group has set up a fund to maintain his farm and house, and are now appealing for people to send him Christmas cards in the Midlands Prison in Portlaoise.
