Laois souvenirs hit the shelves 

KERRY Boy, an Irish-founded business which specialises in souvenirs, nick-knacks and apparel which celebrates individual counties in Ireland, has launched a new line built around Co Laois. It includes shirts, mugs and clocks embossed with a map of Laois, as well as other themed goods, such as a county mug, magic mug, cup (luxury gold/silver), pillow (white/black), county cap (white/black), key holder (white/black), notebook, tote bag and wall clock.

The design highlights several well-known towns and places in the county, including Portlaoise, Mountmellick, Durrow, Abbeyleix and Rathdowney.
