On retirement, she continues flower arranging as a hobby and is a very active member of Naas Flower and Garden Club, Maynooth Flower and Garden Club and the Association of Irish Floral Artists (AOIFA).

The sitting room at Park View

In preparation for all these activities Christine uses her studio at Parkview House and plant material from her well stocked garden. The garden initially was planned and laid out by Kay Hartigan (Bsc in horiculture).

Noel’s passion is restoring vintage cars. He helped to set up The Irish Veteran/Vintage Car and Motorbike Club 1985. He was brought up surrounded by engines as his late father Jimmy ran the local garage in the former tram station in Blessington. He has restored numerous cars at his workshop at Park View House.
