    Dont' hold your breath.

    A while back I was coming out of a shop with lots of cars parked outside on double yellows, footpath and within 15 meters of a pedestrian crossing, when a garda car pulled up to join them. When the garda got out I pleasantly asked if there was anything they could do about the cars, pointing to those to both sides of the garda car. I was asked what did I mean, when I pointed out the 3 road traffic offences they launched into a spiel about how they would love to be able to do something about it but due to lack of manpower etc... totally oblivious to the fact they they were also commuting 3 traffic offences !

    Is that outside Dunnes' front entrance?
    By the way, up in Oakpark I'm witnessing a real show: THICK SNOW!!! Yahoooo!!!

    You beat me to it,they also have furniture up for sale on Done Deal

    Maybe it would do better if they just had the ground floor bar open.

    have they! that's interesting, so they are doing a total refurb in there!

    I was speaking to the manager, Aileen recently & she said they are looking to concentrate more on the food in there, so they need a better layout.

    You just wonder how they consider this entertainment! Obviously they are so intellectually challenged that they have no comprehension how lethal such actions are.

    I just hope they get caught and dealt with!

    This should be dealt with the same as attempted murder as it is premediated, the consequences of such could leave to a huge traffic collision. A car easily loose control with a young family into an on coming lorry etc, the possibilities are endless and scary.

    ha! no not quite! I wasn't even a fan when they were first on the scene! I started listening to their music in my 20's....YEARS later!
    Not sure I want to go after seeing the ticket price though!

    That's pretty cool. Didn't realise that it was a University of British Columbia project. Wonder if a fella could get a spin home on it?

    no it was on a channel called Showcase. Don't know the channel number off the top of my head. It was just ok actually, I thought it would be a bit better than it was.

    Does anyone know of any other haunted places in Tralee or surrounding areas? I hadn't heard that Ballyseedy was haunted until about a year ago!

    If you walk up Rackett lane at the stroke of midnight, you can hear the screeching of 10,000 murdered little piggies

    At least that means the Abbey will stop playing it...they only play songs that are not in vogue!:)
