In Kenmare the dozen or so pubs that are still open (beginning with The Horseshoe) are almost all decorated with a picture of the four Templenoe players plus the two of their own, Seán O'Shea and Stephen O'Brien... O'Shea's parents run the dry cleaning and photography centre on Main Street; O'Brien's mother Mary runs the Hawthorn House B&B around the corner on Shelbourne Street; [Tadhg] Morley is back teaching here after a few years in Dublin, and even if this isn't exactly rural Kerry there's no denying football still lies at the heart of it.
