    They've gone all plain clothes now, there could be any amount of them out on the streets and you wouldn't know it. Haven't seen a nun in full penguin outfit for years.

    There was some publicity a few years ago when the Poor Clares launched a website.

    Poor Clares Galway - Ireland

    They will be 800 years in existence on 1 April.

    Why?
    What do you want a nun for?

    I saw one on another thread here recently, but I am suspicious that she may not have been a real nun...
    Don't blame me; I voted for Kodos.

    This is going to sound ignorant and crude, but the nun in her 20's, what country is she from ?

    She's from Cork, though she was born in England. She's dying.
