 It was not only Winston Churchill who was cross and embarrassed at Clare Sheridan’s adventures in Moscow, London society was both alarmed and intrigued. It was surprised that a member of its upper class should have ventured alone into the viper’s nest. She was invited to balls and receptions mainly as a curiosity. One hostess told her outright that she was nothing but ‘a Bolshevik’, and a suspicion persisted that she was a spy, a fact that Clare did little to contradict. But despite a critical reception on the surface, her book From Mayfair to Moscow* was eagerly snapped up.

My name is Jackie Meenahan form Ballina Co.Mayo. I'm at this job most of my life, I had a fish shop in Ballina which I retired from many years ago, I was fed up doing nothing so I decided to go on the road around the country selling seaweed and I've never looked back since. Its great for my mental health, I come to Galway every Friday to the Moycullen market, make a few bob selling the ol dillisk which comes from Achill Island and make new friends along the way.
