Muff Féile Football Classic

The World Cup is over, but the match of 'summer 26' is still to come. The inaugural Muff Féile Football Classic takes place this coming Wednesday night from 7pm. The QPS pitch will host the game and it's going to be Squealing Pig v Ardmore Bar. The two managers going head-to-head will be - Paddy Doherty for The Pig, and Simon Wallace for The Ardmore. Need we say more. And there will be the referee to beat all others - the legend that is Golly G. All's fair in love and war, or rather bar and bar!!

The lads have successfully recruited a varied number of players (both male and female) to play in this charity match on Wednesday. And most important of all, money raised on the night is ALL going towards our local primary school, Scoil Naomh Bríd.

It could get messi/messy, but it will be great craic. It's time to bring fun back into the village and the 3rd annual Muff Féile is destined to do just this - starting with Doherty v Wallace; Pig v Ardmore. Just who will come out triumphant? And will the loser be a valiant one, or a sore one. You just have to be there on Wednesday to find out.

And there's going to be mighty craic after in The Ardmore Bar. Great music with GÉZER, and who knows what shenanigans will take place.

Put it in your diary now, Muff Féile Football Classic, Wednesday 29th July, QPS pitch 7pm.

Mura gets ready for retirement!

In just over one weeks’ time, our village will have another retiree. A retiree who has given so much to Muff. He moved to Muff from neighbouring Fahan in 1989. Although working in the village prior to this, Mura McLaughlin has long since established himself as a permanent fixture, community member and one of the hardest working members of Muff village. Mura was a Customs Man from 1981 through to 1992. He then proceeded on a career with Irish Life. In the early 90’s Mura began volunteering in the village and was always there to lend a hand at the preparation and delivery of festivals and more. And of course you could find him on the dramatic stage too. In 2007 Mura began working with what is now Muff Community Development. And in 2011 he became manager there. Mura has a team of committee members behind him and a team of workers alongside him, but he himself has been instrumental in much of the development that has taken place in our community in the past 25 years. The fabulo...

Point Coffee opens this coming Tuesday in QP

Earlier today the new coffee shop in Quigley’s Point welcomed some family and friends for a taster and viewing of the new premises. It was a delight to be part of that taster and welcome. Although very much settled in Muff, I am and will always be a Quigley's Point gal at heart, so this coffee shop is a special one for myself here at Craic On Muff. Point Coffee is due to open its doors to the public on Tuesday 21 st July at 7am. It will allow the village of Quigley’s Point and those passing by to fuel up on coffee at dawn, and be fully awake come the morning rush hour of work, family, and day-to-day life. Being the first coffee shop in Quigley’s Point there is undoubtedly much excitement about this opening. Local business, neighbours and friends all popped in today for a nosey. And no one was disappointed. You will find a lovely seating area within. As all is new it’s got that lovely newness feel to it, and yet the smell of coffee makes it feel homely. You will find...

Christmas Dance at Muff Community Hall with Shunie Crampsey

There really is something magical watching people dancing. From contemporary songs to the very traditional 'Shoe the Donkey', it was all things dancing this Sunday night. The people of Muff and far beyond showcased true magic on the dancefloor tonight at St. Mary's Hall here in the village. Shunie Crampsey has been providing the music and song here in the community hall monthly for the past 18+ months. Tonight was the Christmas dance and it showcased the importance of music and dance for the soul. People coming together to sit and listen, to get up and dance, to just talk. And a fabulous supper was enjoyed by all, catered by The Cabin. Events like this show what community is all about. And the community within the village hall tonight felt very strong and very festive. People came from all over Inishowen and Derry to enjoy the dance. And no doubt will return in the future to do likewise. Huge thanks must go to all the members of Muff hall who work hard behind the scene...
