Following the news that throngs of people in Limerick have been attending Rathkeale churchyard to view a stump of a tree which, it is claimed carries a likeness of the Virgin Mary, there have been other miracle sightings round the country.

Cork hurling fan Jem McCarthy (61) from Cloyne received a shock the other morning when he buttered a piece of toasted soda bread and to his amazement an image of what he claims is retired Rebel fullback Diarmuid O’Sullivan appeared on his toast.

‘Yerra,’ said Jem ‘I was so taken aback I couldn’t eat the toast, I was starving too. I knew Sully since he was just a nipper and to have him appear on my toast at breakfast time was a shock I’ll tell you.’

Jem believe the mystical appearance is no coincidence.

“I told Diarmuid to retire when I saw him up the street by the Ring statue and his exact words were ‘That’s me finished Jem, unless there is some sort of miracle.’

“Well I believe this is the miracle we were waiting for. I’m doing to bring the piece of toast down to Denis Walsh to show it to him in case he doesn’t believe me.”

We’ll keep you posted.
