    Are you serious? Another impossible place to pull out of if traffic is heavy!
    That building is hardly suitable for a supermarket though is it?:cool:

    The Aldi is going into John Mitchels pitch. The club are hanging onto the clubhouse and bar. I'd imagine the entrance will be near the Austin Stacks park end.

    Aldi will be in the John Mitchells site before the summer.

    Think construction may start during summer and open for business in December.

    The current traffic issues should be eased with the opening of the Ring Road:)

    The opening of a second Aldi store is a great vote of confidence in Tralee.
    Hopefully it will encourage other businesses to set up in Tralee:)

    That's news to me. I was under the impression they bought land by Mitchell's ground and that's where they were going to build their new store.

    As for jobs. They have a lot of staff they have recruited already around Kerry and a lot of them will be moved into the new store. There's a few stores that have 2 assistant managers working I store. They have told me personally that they expect to be moved to new store. And other staff that want to move up the chain can move to a new store to continue training.

    not on boards. It's like somebody taking away your tesco club points that you worked hard to build up or someone taking your coin jar that you've been saving for years!!:p

    Post counts can be a sign of experience/knowledge when it comes to people taking you seriously on a topic or taking advice from you on certain forums, e.g. Motors and things like that.;)
    Plus its a real kick in the teeth when your over 1000 and all of a sudden your back down to 900s!:mad:

    If it was one of those plastic knives, he would have made a quick recovery.
    Unless of course the knife splintered, that is.
