Bit of movement at the boom time proposed hospital, area scraped back and cleared. Any one hear anything?

Seriously? Man about time, biggest eyesore around. Wonder if the land was sold or the site is now worth the cost of ripping down all that framework and redeveloping.

Well I don't think the 'Priority Clinic' ( the one where everything from heart surgery to having your corns pared ) is going ahead, could be wrong though ;-)

Have they sold their site out at the Axis Park?

The big open area? Not sure but that is being developed so if they owned that, i would presume so

I didn't hear that they had. Was actually surprised to hear it was them who were going into Capital Cars. Great to see such an eyesore coming into the town cleaned up.

meeeeh

Isn't Nissan in Axsis and Hyundai on Church Road where they look fairly cramped?

charlieIRL

Nissan are in Burlington business park

I think you mean Opel and Renault, they actually bought part of the side beside them for a forecourt. Another extension being done at the back of the showrooms as well - new workshops. Don't know why they didn't do them when they were doing the new showrooms.

Isn't Hyundai besides Kelly's Toymaster? Opel and Renault are further down the road. You are right about Nissan, is there someone else in Axis?

I was in there showrooms last week. You could barely move they had them full of cars bumper to bumper and very little in the way of brochures.

Hello everyone,
I am moving to Cornalour, Rahan very soon ( if my solicitor ever gets up off his arse ) and wondered if anyone lives in that community can give me an example of the available internet speed. I am a photographer and need to send images to clients rapidly on request so will need to plan accordingly.
Thank you

Drinks wise? It can't even provide electricity on Christmas Day?!

Power cuts from Srah and Clonminch substations.

How is this possible in this day and age? Surely there's load balancing or whatever methodology they use to safeguard a grid.

I'm a carpenter so I wouldn't have a clue.
In fairness that's a balls but the esb lads on the ground are fairly prompt at getting power back. Did you check the website for estimated time?
Balls if anyone has food cooking

Luckily I called to a house on my travels and have one Christmas dinner down already
Hopefully back by 4 or 5 latest; in time for the main one. power check says 6pm but hopefully that's worst estimate.

Balls with the electricity today

I presume Fitzy’s are moving in to the old Capital Cars Showrooms as I see its under renovation. They were supposed to be building a place out in the axis years ago but that’s all off now I guess. Hopefully the old Coens site is redeveloped soon.

Yes that is what's supposed to be happening. Will be a much better site for them than the one they are currently in.

Great news. The food offering in town isn't too bad these days. Good choices in the main food type areas.
