Hi Guys. Do ye think that the parking wardens at the train station etc. will be working on Christmas Eve ( Sunday), and Christmas Day ( probably not, I imagine)?
I'm going away on Sunday morning and coming back on Christmas night. Don't want to pay if I don't have to, but will of course if I must.

It's like a €120 fine so i would pay it just in case.

I did it on park by text. Much cheaper than 120.

Weather is fine now. Mild with very little wind. The forecast earlier today was for strong winds later tonight in Munster. No evidence of it now.

Hi All

How do you top up the 'Black Bin Collections ' on line???

I have a Kerry Co Co card that I have been topping up in Healy's Shop for past few years but would rather use an online system

Who runs the Black Bins (and Green with Orange Lid for recyclables) in town??

Thanks

Hi, does anyone know of a 2 bedroom house or apparentment to rent in Killarney. Daft doesn't really seem to have too many options. Would appreciate the help.

Thanks in advance.

The advertiser usually have a few ads for renting...hoping to move into killarney or near enough but rent seems to be 100 euro plus a week. Crazy.

Anyone know of short term storage units in Killarney area? Small unit only is needed for a small amount of furniture. Tks

Can anyone recommend a good spot to rent for around 150 people for a party in Killarney town? Myself and the (soon to be) missus are having a small enough wedding, just family, but wanted to throw on a tab for cousins and friends afterwards in Killarney. I'm not sure that we'd have 150 people come through but was looking for something around that number just in case.

I've dropped in to a few hotels but they mostly have the big ballroom set up for a wedding that we'd probably get lost in - plus they seemed understandably reluctant to take a booking when it isn't for the whole wedding day. A private bar would be perfect but a few like the one at Plaza and that would only fit 60-80.

Any ideas of a private bar that could take 150 or I am I better off pushing for a hotel ballroom with partitions put up to reduce the size of the room?

The plaza, K-Town upstairs, McSorleys, Scotts, Bit further out of town, the golden nugget, the valley suites, the killarney court.

There’s a smaller function room in the Muckross Park which is nice, the one above the Jarveys Rest. Would defo suit the number of people you’ve mentioned

Halo Kitty

Have you tried the East Avenue Hotel, they used to have a room for smaller function with private bar..
Also the Dromhall hotel just a 5 minutes walk to town.

Youredeadright

Ye've given me a few to chase up now that I wouldn't have thought of, thanks a million for that. I'll report back once we've got one locked in.

Is Mac's restaurant in Main St gone? No sign of life there with a while.

Doubt it. Think they only open thursday to sunday..than 7 days a week for the summer.

madcabbage

Too early in the season for restaurants to run everyday. March onwards seem to be the case for a lot of business’s

Nah. Open evenings and weekends until Paddy's day at least

Hi guys, has anyone been downtown today? Are any of the shops open, particularly Chemists?

madcabbage

Bars and hotels open from what I could see. Most normal shops seemed to be closed, tomorrow 12pm seems to be when alot are re-opening

According to the Windows weather app the temperature won't go above 3 and there is some precipitation showing for this afternoon. The temp is expected to go down to 2 at around 9pm and it will be freezing at 12.30 tonight.

Sounds like a good plan. It's actually starting to snow just this minute. Light dusting.

phater phagan

The snow appears to have stopped falling now. It was just a short shower.

Everywhere will have the game on. Usually a few in Scotts to watch games. 2 late bars in town, McSorleys open until 2ish and the grand has a nightclub open until 2.30ish.

I always go to the Laune to watch games cos the lads there don't support any particular team, they always turn the sound up and they have a big TV down the back it's like watching a game at home. Lad with long hair and a slight Louth accent is Paudie, tell him you're in to watch the game he'll look after you

Chancer3001

K town bar has about 10 tv screens all showing the game too. Good place to get a good view
