    Fair enough thanks,where are Clonmel Healthcare situated then?

    Both on the same site AFAIK. Just that the company split in two. Don't know the full history, but the CH part is still alive and kicking anyways.

    I certainly hope that's true.
    He has an excellent shop in Chair, can usually be relied upon to come up with the goods when others can't.

    Good luck to him if it's true.

    As tippspur says there is Ritchie O Mahoney in Ardfinnan ( a real "bikers biker")
    Highly regarded.
    In Clonmel there is Clonmel Motorcycles up in the Ard Gaoithe Business Park( also very good)

    What do you need done ? What bike ?
    There are a few "backyard" guys who I could recommend also

    An autofactors shop going in near Top Part that should be interesting!

    I think Clonmel motorcycles are gone from Ard Gaoithe, I was up that way recently and it looked closed up but I wasn't near enough to see if they'd shut down or moved somewhere else or just closed for holidays

    They say it about nearly every town at this point though.....its hard to believe, or maybe I'm just very disconnected?

    I've seen some photos on Facebook taken inside the hotel. It's a crying shame that it was allowed get in this condition. It's been known to be a haven for drug users for some time now.

    Who is to blame?
    The owners of the building?
    The Local Authority who decide planning?
    The drug suppliers?
    Or, the drug users themselves?

    Drug abuse is a problem in every town and village in Ireland.

    Yes and unfortunately Clonmel is suffering as most towns it's size are. I think the drug problem is a lot bigger than people realise.

    We need more Gardai to try and tackle the problem but the lid is very much off at the moment.

    She was trying to get the photos reported and get them taken down off Facebook, although I think it is the public interest to see what a state of disrepair the place has fallen into. Hopefully the article will kick the council and the Guards to do something about it!

    She probably agreed to take part in order to raise awareness of the scourge in our midst.

    That's what i meant she is featured in the article. Another girl says he tried to kill herself last xmas day and was saved by her dealer as far as i recall, the other girl is on drink and prescription meds.

    Personally I don't see how having anything published in the papers about this unfortunate incident is going to help anyone.

    Not in that rag anyway. she seems to want to highlight it. I do not see much point people know the danger of heroin but still take it just as young people know danger of cigarettes but smoke

    Refurb or not, surely it's only a matter of time for Gamestop? Direct downloads are becoming increasingly popular and their game prices are anything but competitive.

    My father in law is a member of the iunva in clonmel and I've often bought the lottery tickets from him (even won a few bob on occasions) and that seems to be the same as the tickets I've got in the past so seems legit.
