Tralee thread

Apparently Fine Wines up in manor has closed down. Someone said it closed a few weeks ago. Never heard anything about it closing!?

Yeah I used go to the Chinese there a lot more before Starbucks opened. Drive in past Fine Wines then park at the back of the petrol station, walk over to Pagoda & collect food, dodge all the parking in the centre. When Starbucks opened the traffic flow reversed & I couldn't do that anymore. I expect Fine Wines suffered from a similar issue, no convenient parking anymore. Probably healthier for me! But loss of business to the local shops there.

Anytime I was ever in Radley's I was usually the only customer in there. A very awkward part of town to get to and park unless you are on a bike or motorbike. Didn't the salesman who worked there for years set up his own office supplies business I saw his van with his name on it a few times - grabbed existing Radley customers perhaps?

Where could a small personalised grave plaque be got

I'd say Radley's was one of if not the last of the Latchford businesses in Tralee. It was one of the sons who owned it before selling afaik.

Given the shop is set up for it, you could see another pizza outfit replacing them

Any petrol updates? What shops have petrol, are there still massive queues?

Applegreen Fairies cross sold out now. Mcelligots, Joe O'Connors and Kellihers gone. Not sure about the others. it took me 40 minutes to drive to work from top of Oakpark into town centre when I left at 11.15am!

*Edited to add that apparently some of the petrol stations have started to get deliveries again in the last hour!

O Connors Circle K had fuel tonight, you may have mixed it up with the Circle K at McDonalds, who had fuel gone this Thursday evening. No fuel coming out from Depots yet, incl Foynes/ Whitegate. Heard from someone in the know that Diesel would be 10c lower if fuel deliveries are picked up tommorrow rather than following day. Would the intelligent blockaders want the drivers of Ireland to carry this extra cost also? Shame on them for blocking the emergency services, sick and old from critical appointments etc.

Blocking the only refinery in the country and stopping ordinary people from filling up their cars is not a form of peaceful protest it's ransome. The protesters were warned and it appears as little force as necessary was used. If this was any other country they would have been hosed down and arrested long ago.

They are not holding anyone to ransome! This is all the Governments doing! They could have solved this days ago, but instead decided to belittle the people of the country and treat everyone like dirt! they are a joke! Fair play to the protesters. This should have happened a long time ago. What else do you expect them to do?? allow the government to ruin the country and we just keep quiet and allow it to happen?
