That's very sad.. my young lad was very fond of popping in there for a wad of goodies with his €2.

And yes, the girls that worked there were ever so nice.

That's a pity. We still have the Chinese owned one beside Eric Barron's which seems to be open 27 hours a day.

The staff in the waterford store are holding a sit-in in an attempt to get payment due to them although after several days trying to get the truth of the matter i am no nearer!
Meanwhile the staff of the enniscorthy branch along with 6 other stores are waiting for due payments longer than necessary due to the "action" taken in waterford.

Apparently Abrakebabra has bitten the dust - again - but I am open to correction.



Meanwhile this morning the anti-household tax people held their weekly protest outside Paul Kehoe's office - this time with the bold Paul trapped inside during his clinic.



While down at the Castle visitors stood around unable to gain admission due to the bizarre opening times! 12 Noon at weekends.

Put a good gloss on the town alright but why the likes of Coolbawn, Castleboro and Wilton which are of no value to the town as tourist resources as they are on private property. The view from the Keep - and that's it - I had forgotten just how little there is to see in the castle now.

It really is a bad sign when the discount shops are struggling, seemed to have the best position out of the 3 of this type of shops in the town centre
