    There is no reason for a protest for a foreign concern in these times of Covid, a petition is enough .....the protest although fine in normal times, has no effect in a small town on Europes edge. Normal times I do not care. Now beyond it is stupid, do not care what the case numbers are.
    This is how it takes hold....sure its grand attitude.......the reason why I didn't get my Christmas drink.

    I can't imagine Hamas stopping their shelling of Israel as a result of a protest anywhere, nevermind a small rural town.

    I know its not a butchers, but you can't beat Aldi for their premium range steaks. The 30 day aged ones that come in the black boxes.

    +1 for this suggestion..they really are fantastic

    I forgot to say that the Dunnes Simply better range of Fillet Steak is also very good. My husband loves it. It sells out quite a lot so its popular!

    I know I'm not answering the question asked which is a pet hate of mine :) but I buy Fillet steak from The Premium Butcher when they have it on offer. Yes it's a lot of steak and cost, 100 quid for 3 full fillets and you must trim and cut them up and freeze but it's delicious and good value overall. A few lovely Chateaubriands as well then for roasting or Beef Wellington.

    No idea, but they do training and response time exercises out beyond the Kerries at times.. hopefully that's all it was

    The Fire Brigade never does or did something like that.

    I wasn't aware of the fire service being involved at the time.
    It was actually an incident that required their assistance....injury, but no casualty

    Its great to see the shops open again and the town buzzing. I popped into Penney's at lunch time. I didn't have to queue which was great. Hopefully that's the last of the lockdowns and the businesses have a good trade this summer.

    Lads, you might not support this cause but do you really have to spread disinformation like this ?


    Anyone with even the slightest clue of whats been going on will realise that majority of the anti-vaccine / anti-mask / anti-lockdown crew are far-right, people who as a rule don't particular like *brown* people.

    I'm sure it's the usual anti-everything rent-a-crowd. Anti-mask, anti-vaxx, anti-flouridation, anti-water charges etc.

    Could very well be, there are quite a few anti mask demonstrations around the country today at 2pn.
    This could be one masquerading as a Pro-Palestinian demonstration

    Only saw a couple of politicians there, out of interest who are you referring to then ?

    I saw a few images of the protest today, a local "politician"who changes partys more times than his jocks was there...
    But other than that, I recognised a few Syrians and a Brazilian I'd know...so it wasn't the anti-mask brigade

    Such a load of cr*p, people have had many opinions on the lockdown, vaccine, govt mishandling of the whole thing etc which has nothing to do with the colour of peoples skin

    Anyone waiting on items from fastway. When I check the status if the order I've been getting this since the 11th of May.

    We're trying to deliver this parcel but we have encountered an operational delay.

    They are beyond useless

    Maybe...it's a bit quiet on the reasoning.. but it's either closed completely, or shut for approximately 9 months

    We use them for work and find them ok. Did you email them through their website? I know they can be a bit slow at times, but compared to another big courier company we recently used, they are far better!

    I can't imagine Israel recognising the Palestinians as fellow human beings and embracing all that that encompasses, as a result of a remote protest, but ya never know it might help!

    We love dreamers. But yes, definitely, Israel shouldn't have retaliated and just allowed hamas to bomb them indescriminately

    They are planning to, but they don't have anywhere secured yet. I was talking to one of the couriers in Tralee recently. It may be by the end of the year at this rate he said!

    Considering they're nonstop looking for people to work in the werehouse that might have a lot to do with it.
