    Not necessarily. I read somewhere recently that the Royal family only cost eack UK citizen the princely sum of 66p a year! The amount they bring in is somehere like £176 million to the UK treasury. Not to mention the amount made by restaurants, hotels, taxis and shops etc. Bring 'em back I say. *joke*

    Thought I'd try this thread before posting a new thread. I'm trying to contact what I think is Fleming's Car Sales just on the way into Castleisland there. I found 3 phone numbers online, not one of them is connected, two landlines and a mobile.

    They have a car I'm interested in, how can it be so difficult to contact a sales place?? Has anybody a phone number or anything that is actually in existence for them?

    They're not Flemings any more. Flemings moved to the old Castleisland-Limerick Road (out past the Desmonds Pitch).

    The crowd that are operating from the Tralee Road now are Walshs. They used have a car place on the Abbeyfeale side of Castleisland at the top of the hill, but had to move.

    Contact numbers: 068 44838 or 087 6494419 / 087 7641668

    You're a legend thanks! I just spotted the car as I was driving by and when I googled all I got Flemings stuff. Gotta love boards :)

    You are quite correct. Bring em back they sound like a great investment for 66p.
    We were far too hasty in getting rid of them;) we could reduce our National Debt, and then send them back!:D

    he may be from England, but he and his family are definitely NOT royalists! At least we both agree on something lol

    Why are we discussing what is happening in the United Kingdom when this tread has to do with the Kingdom of Kerry :confused::confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 975 ✭✭✭newman10


    Am in Derrynane at the moment and I just witnessed the Rescue Service at work rescuing a fisherman from a stricken boat and the Rescue Helicopter bringing him to hospital.

    One has to admire and thank the men and women of all rescue services who give their time in the service of us all

    The rescue service in ballybunion saved two children in one rescue on Sunday.

    In the following hours they rescued a further two people.

    All these people volunteer there services, so if ye see a collection throw them a few euro.

    I would suggest that you read up on how the Royal Family is financed, and what in turn is provided to the Treasury in the UK from revenue from the Crown Estate, which was surrendered by the Royal Family in years past, before you engage in further displays of, to put it bluntly, ignorance, on this matter.

    I have provided a link to an article on this for your perusal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭ciaeim


    I just heard that another murder has been committed,in the rathmore area this time. Awful news seems to be never ending.

    No :( Hes gone a month now so not holding out much hope. We took him in as a stray a couple of years back and wherever he came from he was mistreated id say because most of teeth were missing and he was cautious of us. Theres loads of strays hanging around the place so thinking they might have frightened him off. Still hoping somebody took him in and is taking care of him...

    Gosh, that is shocking. Poor puppies must be dehydrated in this weather. Should be prosecuted.

    I emailed the Kerry county council dog warden (as it was after 5pm), so hopefully someone will pick up the email and check it out.
