Flowers With That Flour, My Dear…?

505

reat to see Flowers By Lynda have found a new home, after Eugene’s pulled its shutters last week.

It’s even better that that new home should be Ireton’s, one of the longest-running grocery stores in Greystones.

Which has been selling jam, butter and briquettes in the town for, oh, 328 years now.

Swung down this sunny Monday afternoon, March 2nd 2015, to congratulate both Orla (and Clodagh) from Flowers By Lynda, and the legend that is Leo Ireton.

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again – just a few of your basics purchased here each week will make all the difference to Leo. So, you know, just do it.

Footnote: Sadly, a year and a half later, Flowers By Lynda – which had then become House Of Flowers – shut up shop, and consequently, so did Leo. You can catch our interview with the man himself about saying goodbye to Greystones’ oldest shop here.
