    Yes indeed , I also saw him in there buying a sharpening stone, I asked him was he down on holiday, he " NO ' Im here on business " he proceeded to put on dark glasses and got into his Chevy and drove away

    Hahaha! Must be true so :p What colour Chevy, out of interest? I wonder did he buy any of those electronic fly/wasp zapper things they have in there, they're brilliant things altogether.

    Does anybody work in this Town anymore? And I wish they would leave those of us that do the **** alone to get on with our jobs. I spent the whole day working in Town (on a deadline) but spent most of the time fending off not only scumbags,but worse than Scumbags,The OLD STOCK of the Town. You know the type,never worked a bloody day in their lives and spent most of it around Town wrecking heads and stopping people doing their ****ing jobs.
    Lovable rogues me hole,piss off and mind yer own business and let me get on with things

    It was BLACK , and all I noticed was there was a feller in the passenger seat , and like you said he was carrying a fly thingy.!! I have to say they did look aggressive , that Gordon was a bit rude to be honest, when he told me he was here on business he knocked me out of way with his shoulder as he left Benners .

    He did tell me tho before all that shenanigans he was very happy with the progress of the new by pass , that he saw pictures on Kerry thread !!

    Seriously people if you haven't something constructive to say why bother commenting with more garbage.

    Small Benners is on topic in a Tralee thread. Key-cutting and stone-sharpening, all to be found there.

    Seriously though, it really is a great little shop - no?

    On a similar topic - what are the best 5 bars with beer gardens in Tralee or nearby? Had a good Saturday last week in Quane's in Blennerville & Railway Bar in Camp - not quite Tralee but near enough.

    Two great beer gardens,dont have them in Tralee, If the Huddle wasnt a ****hole then it would have a great beer garden but they are a dying breed

    Already a massive difference to the front of O' mahoneys bookshop,I still see the Castle Off-License still has no signage over the door. Council should be putting pressure on the shops in Town now with the Festival coming up to tidy up,a lick of paint goes a long way

    Well to be fair I did miss it 3 times today passing through Town. A bit of raised lettering on the blank space above the display window would really give it a nice finish.

    Such a difference when you go to places like Dingle and Killarney to see how shop owners take pride in how the front of their shops are displayed. Dont get me wrong,I aint painting every place with the same brush. It would take me forever!!

    Speaking of "records", Lee's looks like it has been closed with the better part of a decade with state of the outside.

    it was looking a bit rough before it closed too!

    I had a look at cd's in Tesco's last weekend, their selection is tiny now, or is there a bigger section as well? if not then it was cra*p!

    Hmmmm, I honestly can not think of one in tralee, their all outside the front with a handfull of chairs not quite sure that classes as one, and you honestly can not call the blaskets outside facility a "beer garden". Maybe Hennesseys before it gets jammers.

    O'riada I suppose is the only other one I can think that is decent, has a punch bag thing which keeps most of us fellas and some ladies happy for all of about 10minutes.

    I wonder can you stick a pic of somebodys face to that bag? Would keep some occupied for a lot more than 10 minutes!
