The Henry St Whisper is an institution in itself.

She was a fishmonger, and sure 'twas no wonder
For so were her father and mother before
And they both wheeled their barrow,
through streets broad and narrow
Crying: cockles and Mussels a-live, a-live oh

What's going on, is this a sign of a growing urban area?
I live right beside there and this freaks me out!

lol,what a statement

wet-paint

Damn, I was a little bit drunk when my father told me about it, and he came out with a great one, somethign about "preserving the evidence" but I'm ****ed if I can remember it. But you get the jist.

Latest one i have been told is "that guy found in the freezer was named yesterday................Jack Frost"

Sponge Bob

its not my plaice to skate over the elveridence here ...but it looks like murder

DonalN

it's the only shop you can buy a decent leg of fish!..

Identified, but details not released. 51 year old male is all the Garda are saying.

Apparently the man in the freezer was a porter shark by the name of Fin. He was a good, decent sole by all accounts and was just in the wrong plaice at the wrong time. He was battered to death. They reckon it could take two days to thaw him out – why not just use the microwave? Sounds like a bit of a cod to me. There’s a freeze on all information until all his school have been notified ach sin scale eile!

muppetkiller

Turns out it wasn't Murder he's Galway's 1986 Hide and seek Champion lol

snubbleste

"A team of up to 50 uniformed gardaí and detectives are now involved in the investigation."

Wow..did'nt realise there was that many based in town!
Anyone know how big the cold room is and if the owner/leasee might've been aware of its presence?

"believed to be 52-year-old Patrick McCormack from Dublin."

DonalN

a Dublin drug dealer I hear on the ol radio this morn.

Sponge Bob

Them feckers are always coming down to Galway to chill out

littlejp

Rumour has it he may have been there for up to 4 years. Maybe he couldn't wait for the Nintendo DS to come out so he came up with an elaborate plan to freeze himself to be awoken when it was out but it didn't go as he planned.
If they manage to revive him he'll **** himself when he sees what a Wii can do!

muppetkiller

TG4 say that the last time he was seen was in October 2003 and the Garda think he's been there since around early 2004..jeez the amount of times i've gone past that place!

Imagine if you bought anything from that place in the past few years :eek:

I know hygenicly (sp?) it means nothing, but still, just knowing that yer fish was next to a dead body. Ah sure, if ya werent a cheap4rse and bought fresh fish yer alright

spudington16

Yeah, would it have killed you to check a random freezer for a dead guy who'd been there for years?

Talk about inconsiderate..

Fecks sake, dosen't say much for the freshness of the fish if they didn't notice a body in the freezer for 4 years.:eek:

Utopia Parkway

Four years FFS!

How did nobody manage to open a freezer full of dead person for four bloody years?

Was there never a stock take done in those four years???

There was. Obviously it could have been more comprehensive . Someone will get a pollocking for this.

JohnCleary

Newpaper (Tabloid though :rolleyes: ) mentioned that the fish shop re-opened for business today (Or yesterday, cant remember)... CAn't imagine the place getting much business? :eek:

Fey!

That was in the Times, too.

People will probably go in there for the "ghoul" factor for a while; could cause an explosion in business!

I know the shop supplies mostly trade / restraunts. Its not exactly high street central with the biggest reach to customers.

The guy himself my father knows. Says he's one of the most genuine people he's ever met. As good as gold. It would be sad to see his business go under cause of this (of course assuming he's not involved but I doubt it or they'd have him locked up by now). The locals seemed to be in force to wish him well on the box the last day which im glad to see

mikemac

So in four years they've never had a proper stock take or clean out.
Once word gets around, this place is heading for bankruptcy:eek:

damalo

Pfft - in fairness im not trying to overly defend the guy but thats a very sweeping statement. Have you ever been in the place? do you know the layout and what is and isnt used on a daily basis for customers / personal usage perhaps? Get real
