There are no shops because there is no footfall.
There is no footfall because the casual shopper wont come into the city centre.
The casual shopper won’t come into the city centre because scobes make it an unpleasant experience.
In short, scobes are the biggest issue. Under Irish law, it is illegal to beg within 25 feet of a retail premises - the guards refuse to enforce it.
Didn’t they deny planning permission for student accommodation near the art college as it would spoil the view of the nearby industrial school
Took the family into the Samhain parade there for the first time, it was excellent. Not a massive long parade but what was there wss really well done. Definitely worthwhile and great crowds around by the castle.
Why are GSOC investigating the crash in Ballylanders yesterday?
Usually means a chase doesn’t it? Or a Guard involved
Down home for the weekend and strolled through town on the way out to the GG.i see some work being done on Kranks Korner, for those of us of a certain vintage would call it. Good to see as it’s been vacant for a long long time. What’s going in there? Please don’t say a vape shop:smile:
There’s an International Rugby Museum going in there supposedly. It’s going to be an homage to Munster and Ireland teams of yesteryear with a novel indoor penalty kick experience. Café and gift shop too, which I think everyone will agree, will be a roaring success.
A small supreme please
And a chilli burger.
The amount of lettuce in those burgers in Kranks. Youd need a mouth like a horse to ate them
The car involved was being driven by an off duty garda
These council meetings seem like absolute nonsense having read a few of this fella’s threads. I’d say they are a complete hindrance to getting anything done. Sounds like JP may have joined it briefly today.
How 30m may have been spent on a building now worth 5m is another matter.

He’s all put out that it was set up as a charity… orphan charitable trusts and the likes are very normal corporate set ups , especially in set ups with a short life. Protection mechanism when liquidation is invoked i think
Think this fella might be a bit of a dramatist
The goings on in the council are of more interest to me than his personal opinions, he does seem like a bit of an odd fella but he gives a good rundown of their meetings.
Seems like bringing in a mayor has got the councillors nose out of joint and even less will get done now due to pettiness
Who paid for it to be built?
And who owns it at the moment?
No idea
Correct
