And still no mention of what is happening for next month's festival!?
Feile na Blath was on this weekend. Weather wasn't great unfortunately. I went down yesterday afternoon, just as it started to rain. Pretty small crowd down there.
Things must be hotting up in the High Court. It says Monday but it could be Monday 8th July as I can see no mention on today's list. The mud will be slinging from all directions. 😛

Apparently there’s some form of temporary accommodation being set up on the grounds of the old Klopman factory in Clash Ind Estate. Anyone else hear if this is true or not? Seems strange to use this site with the army barracks empty?
Nothing like washing your dirty laundry in public 😁
They should go the whole hog and open a few laundrettes just to break the monotony, I'm sure they'd be popular.
I think you mentioned a few phone repair shops closing down recently...I'm guessing the staff were just redeployed to the next over subscribed business that miraculously make a profit no matter how many of them operate....
Everyone is doing the barbering course in monavalley.
There are 2 new Barbers opening up! One is next to Benners hotel and another is opposite the new nail bar in Bridge Street (right opposite another Barbers!). There must be some amount of demand for barbers in this town as we have quite a lot of them now!
I haven't a clue, perhaps Ardfert is only supplying ingredients like someone on here said they do for other burger joints in the area?
I see they are doing a SMAASH sauce on the spice bag. I wonder has it anything to do with Ardfert?
Presumably all the stuff on this page, except it says shashd it for some reason.

What kind of food does it do?
Smash'd It diner now open where Abrakebabra used to be.
I think the main entrance to the new place is on the road that leads to the excess Manor West parking area so I suppose it will be possible to get into the place from both ends of that road.
If it takes cars from the McDonalds queue it actually might help keep cars off the main road on busy days 🤪 I wonder will there also be an entrance from the shopping centre side….
have you seen the traffic jams up there?? I didn't say it should be left derelict!! but a drive through is going to be a nightmare to what is already crazy up there with Mcdonalds!
what would you prefer? The site to stay derelict? A phone/vape shop? I think the town should stay clear of garden centres for a while…. If the drive through is successful, then so be it. It creates jobs, has people spending money, etc, etc.
I'm just entering the panic room hoping that she's hasn't found the code. 😛
Brave man. I wouldn't dare blame mine. She's taller than me. 😱
I'll blame my wife, she sent me the old link making me think that it was "new" and resurrected. I should have checked the date. 😛
That was canned a while back, I think a disagreement between mcDs and the franchise owner
I was disappointed to hear about that too, I bet someone saw the lines of traffic outside MacD's every evening and started getting ideas.
In the good old days there used to be only one file with everything included, and now there's a load of individual files to go through to find out anything. I gave up looking for clues after a while, there are only so many hours in the day. 😛
it’s definitely KFC if you look at the planning file they’ve included KFC branding and text in some of the drawings
It's going to be really cosy when the new 2 storey McDonalds is crammed up against the new single storey fast food joint.

A very old article, Doh!!!
I wonder why that garden centre for The Range nearby didn't proceed. I'd imagine it'd be a popular addition to The Range.
Just what Manor needs, another drive through……
Good to see some/any development on that site
Just what manor needs. Another fast food place. 😞
Looks like the new Manor fast food joint got its permission. I suppose any objectors will be contacting ABP to get it scrapped.
I don't think Shadowmeadows Ltd, the applicant company, has yet owned up to which fast food bunch is going to operate there, although there was a mention of KFC on these very pages a long time ago.
