Visiting hours

The Dubs visited Temple Street and Crumlin this morning - but not everyone was smiling

Heartwarming pictures.

IT HAS TO be one of the great sporting traditions; the All-Ireland winners visiting the capital’s children’s hospitals the morning after the night before.

So with a few hours sleep and a couple of sore heads, Jim Gavin’s men arrived at Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital in Crumlin and Temple Street to pay a special visit to the patients.
