The cousins who were rescued in Galway Bay after surviving the night on their paddleboards in a storm spent an hour together at the weekend and chatted about everything except reliving their dramatic brush with death.

Ellen Glynn, 17, and her 23-year old cousin Sara Feeney finally got to meet up on Saturday night after the teenager was discharged from University College Hospital.
