    Ah but that's family units for the most part I'd say with plenty of space in between them - sure if your right down at the town end it's no doubt frantic but there's 5 KM to use and that's just on the bay side. No reason not to have a space if you want it.

    Tramore packed again today don't get how people think its fun to spend a day like that

    Dunmore East is the very same and the beach here is tiny by comparison to Tramore.
    I passed The Strand and the Spinnaker earlier and they're both still breaking all the rules, as they have been since they reopened to the public.

    Hopefully we keep it going

    If so we could escape a region lockdown if we continue to go that way

    I cannot speak for any of the other places but I was in the Spinnaker at the weekend at I thought of all of the places I have been the last couple of weeks they where the best. Staff had the masks and the distancing was in place. The time limit at the table was enforced.

    With the Hub or Norrises is the food being prepped in a different building establishment? If that is the case what are the implications on the hub for instance if someone involved in food prep amigos is in contact with covid , or if someone getting a take away or dining at amigos (keep me trtrue here don't know if he has seating indoors) is in contact with covid. If food is travelling over the road would such a situation take both establishments out?

    Anyone else see Fergal Bowers report on the 6 OClock news? He said the HSE had issued a very interesting 14 day rolling figure County by County. He listed the unfortunate midlands with their 100+ per 100k population figures, then he mentioned the 5 a day locations, then he said, at the other end of the spectrum with less than 5 cases in 14 days were Kilkenny, Kerry and Donegal. He said this with an incredulous raise of the eyebrows. I waited for the punchline of none in 27 days but that was the end of the report.

    As the old saying goes,just because you are paranoid, it doesn’t mean they aren’t out to get you. You can only laugh, if being non existent helps us avoid COVID, I’m a happy man.

    ^ I find it incredibly hard to watch Fergal Bowers, he must be the most boring man I ever saw/listened to in my life. Dull, dreary and monotonous. If I ever get insomnia, ill switch him on...

    In responding to the crisis firstly (the last) Government decided to Phase us [1-2-3-4] now the new regime or junta wants to colour code us [red, orange, yellow +blue] as the Minister for Health, Commandant 'Conehead' Donnelly puts his stamp on the evolving situation. Meanwhile sombre the N-(teacher's)-PET Dr Glynn advise we avoid crowds, keep 2m away from everyone, wear a mask and use the tracker app. And day by day slowly the country becomes more Orwellian. Yes its a pretty infectious virus but God only knows whats down the road; the imminent opening of the schools and colleges will be interesting to say the least. Then there is the changing of the seasons, Summer to Autumn to Winter. Christmas is gonna be great gas eh?
    Still its good to know that we are being governed by people who how what they are doing and not a bunch of over paid amateurs making it up as they muddle through, trying to make a name for themselves and outdo the efforts of the last regime.

    Can't imagine what Christmas time will be like should things remain the same or worsen. No pubs, no Xmas parties, scaled back shopping, no Santa visits, no Winterval.... maybe it will be a white one?:cool:
