Advance flooding warning for weekend of 31 Jan. Very high tides and rain forecast!
In other news i see Tralee's 30 million by pass is now costing 60 million - Some creative accounting going on there i think!
Interesting debate on TCA Facebook thread about court poor box money being sent abroad, of the 500k collected over 450k went abroad. Surely this money should stay with local charities especially as the crimes are being committed locally. Apparently its all at the discretion of the local judge.

Can you provide a link or legitimate source for the bypass costing news story? It actually cost 97 million so I don't know where you are getting figures of 30 or 60 million.

Can anyone recommend a driving instructor based in Tralee?

Incoheret difficult to read rant. The fact that hes right about McEllistrim doesnt make the blog any less of an incoherent rant.

What is the story with the McEllistrim Dynasty?

Is he the best on offer for the Council Elections?

Will he do anything for Tralee?

An interesting rant!

Good news in the Kerry's Eye today re the site across the road from Austin Stacks Park,a businessman from Cork has bought it and is applying for planning to develop on the site.

Hopefully something is finally done with it.

I just didn't realise he still did the driving lessons, I thought he had given it up. I know his wife was doing it and he was working for Radio Kerry! Not saying he is old! :rolleyes:

You are persistant listrybabe. Even when it was proven last week that you don't work there.

He's gas, it took him 6 hours to type the same thing in the liebherr thread.

They still won't put up the 11 point plan they say is going to make there life misery. Maybe because siptu are blowing smoke up there arse and they have finally realized the public have seen them for the money grabbers they are.

Anyway if he wants to discuss it he can go to the Liebher thread, and don't be filling this with hes siptu propoganda!
