    There are a few cases from that bar, yes.....
    the extended family is local too.

    The 2km map website:

    Personally, walking from my house to Forge Cross and back again would be comfortably within the range.

    You'd be surprised at the amount of amenity walks people can do within 2km of their homes...canal walk, Lee river walk, Nuns wood, Fat mile, the old rail track greenway...even the Clash, Oak park and Caherslee roads are more pleasant to walk with much reduced road traffic to stretch your legs for half an hour.

    Now up to 66 cases in Kerry, almost as many as Limerick, which has 67.

    Castle St, Rock St and estates like Connolly & Brendan’s Pk riddled, but in self LOCKDOWN, unreported and untested btw. Seems Facebook is more in tune locally. Stay at home.

    Sadly the first death in St. Brendan's Park reported today

    They were drinking in the bar, they weren't in Cheltenham. There may have been people in their company who returned from Cheltenham.

    Was there confirmation of a death in Tralee due to Covid-19? or even a death in Kerry? Until there is confirmation, lets not speculate.

    That’s completely incorrect information and until you know full proper and truthful facts you should refrain from spreading bull**** fake news. Don’t be so gullible as to believe what your aunties mothers sisters boyfriend told you!!!!!

    What happened to #bekind and “we are all in this together”.

    This is a highly contagious virus that effects different people in different ways, for all you know, YOU could have the virus right now with no symptoms and be spreading it to those around you without even knowing.

    The poor gent that passed away in Tralee today as a result of Covid 19 is also rumoured to have drank in the same bar you are referring to above. The poor man was over 90 years old and hadn’t left the house in weeks.

    People of Tralee get a life!!!! it’s only a matter of time before it’s on your doorstep. Stop spreading bull**** stories and further making what is already a very difficult and worrying time in people lives worse with hearsay and damaging statements.

    Hi everyone. This is Paul the owner of the Burger shack. I would just like to clarify a few things. Myself and my wife were not in Cheltenham. In fact the last time we left the country was a weekend in amsterdam last November. According to rumours we were in Cheltenham/Italy/Tenerife/Austria and apparently my wife was in Spain the week before Cheltenham to “top up her tan”. Look everyone. People are dying. I’m not looking for pity because we are being slated unnecessarily I just want people to shut up and look after your loved ones. Work together as a community. If you hear gossip about someone don’t spread it. Look that person in the eye (from a safe distance of course) and ask them is it true before you add legs to the story and destroy someone’s reputation or there life. This terrible virus will eventually disappear. Let’s get through this together. Stop the hate. Hopefully mine and other businesses can recover after this is over. But lies and terrible gossip helps no one. RIP to those who have lost there lives. Please stay safe everyone. Paul and Aileen.

    Fair play to you Paul for coming on here and clarifying the situation in such a calm and responsible manner.

    We're all in this together, stay safe.

    Thanks for posting Paul! Unfortunately the small town gossip gets people all worked up. People love to blame others, instead of having facts etc. Its not fair on you and your wife, nor is it fair on both businesses who are the subject of this gossip.

    I hope Aileen is feeling well and recovered now. I'm sure when this is all over, you will be able to open up again and people will be more interested in treating themselves to your delicious food, and we can all get back to some sort of normality!
    Stay safe!

    Well those were Facebook rumours... he'd be better served addressing those rumours on that platform, no?

    The mans business was mentioned above by another poster along with incorrect facts.

    He’s entitled to address those incorrect facts along with clearing up any other misconceptions posters may have about him his family or his business.

    I can only assume he felt the need to post to stop further false information being spread on this forum.

    He should be applauded for his openness and honesty.

    No death notice so far today from Brendan's Park, so perhaps that was just another rumour?

    As he is on could he give a timeline of when the symptoms started, how long to get tested, how long to results, how long to recover etc ?

    Unfortunately the mans death due to the virus is not a rumour. He did have underlying conditions. Anything else you hear take with a pinch of salt.

    Why should someone have to disclose their personal medical history on public forum? Anyone who needs to know would have been contacted by the HSE. People are still entitled to their dignity

    He doesn’t need to do this. The man was addressing false rumours. He doesn’t need to tell us anything else.

    Badly needed distraction from coronavirus discussion

    Looks like some kind of phone mast to me to, yiud imagine there would be a planning application on council website or something.

    False rumours can ruin a business
    When my wife heard they had been to Cheltenham she said that was it, never going to his restaurant again.

    looking forward to the infamous taco fries with cheese once again

    Anyway this is the Tralee thread so anything related to Tralee is surely allowed.

    He doesn't need to do it but no harm in asking if he was willing to share his first hand experience.
