    There's a group page on Facebook called 'Tralee do you know'. It might be worth joining it and ask on there. I've seen people looking for people to rent rooms etc. Worth a shot!

    Try Trident homes. They look after a few holiday homes, out past Aldi I think. We rented 5/6 houses off them in 2010 for my wedding.

    "Gardai say the incident was not captured on CCTV"

    Is the CCTV room full up with Pizza boxes from New Yorkers?

    They say the same thing after every incident down there! There have been numerous incidents and vandalism there, yet there's never any CCTV! Then bloody get some cameras installed!!

    Yeah. Meant to post the same. I passed last Saturday lunchtime and it was closed. That didn't last long. But of course there was the competition across the road.

    Spotted a big camera today, just on the soon to be Horans healthfoods unit. Wonder why it's not working & why it's not being repaired!?

    And with incidents on the Square featuring so regularly in the local meeja you'd think they would have cottoned on it by now. PS why is the Square such a hot spot for assaults etc? It would on the face of it appear to be the least likely place for anyone to get up to anything with the volumes flowing through.

    Because it's easy to attack someone and escape through multiple different routes.

    These degenerates also just don't care.

    You've just seen them attack someone. They don't care.

    You looked them square in the eye. They don't care.

    Caught on CCTV? Don't care.

    Going to report them to the guards? Don't care.

    It's not the square or lack of CCTV that's the problem, it's the social issues that need to be addressed.

    Don't worry building a skatepark will solve all these problems lol

    Apparently council will introduce free parking on Fridays from 4pm! Wow, aren't they generous! Everyone knows there aren't even ticket wardens around town after that time anyway!

    In fairness, the council is heavily constrained by the (lack of) resources available to it. In any case, I don't think large-scale town-centre free parking is a viable way forward and it wouldn't make sense anyway taking such a decision a few weeks before the opening of a significant new car park on Edward St.
