Of course if anything happened the truck driver was shook but uninjured, whereas the car or cyclist would have been another statistic. Saw another truck driver going up Rock Street last year with a mobile in one hand and a cigarette in another!! Also the number of people driving into busy junctions and roundabouts while on a mobile is truly frightening, it is a miracle they actually stop in time. I could go on with many more incidents but I would be writing for the few days.

Here are my observations: The Aqua Dome is so undersold. It is as good a tourist attraction as any. It is good value, well staffed and maintained. Tralee is well sign-posted unlike other towns most notably Ennis. We stayed at the Brandon Hotel which was good value although a little, dare I say, dated. There aren't a lot of restaurants in Tralee for a town of it's size* but what we got was damn good. *what is the population of Tralee? I was intrigued by the 2 newsagents across the street from the hotel that were next door to each other. I thought this was quite unusual. Are they bitter rivals or how did that come about? The fun fair seemed to occupy a lot of valuable parking spaces. It was pricey but it's no dearer than the one in Salthill or Funderland in the RDS. People in shops were nice. We bought stuff in Shaws and they were very friendly which is surprising when you consider that its is merely a department store. Also, staff in the old fashioned sweet shop on a street corner (I don't remember it's name) were also very patient and efficient. We also went to Dingle which was awesome...! There's me few cents on an outsider looking in.

The Mummys of the children attending Spa National school, did not learn much while school was out during July And August. The road was widened by knocking and rebuilding the school boundary wall and a portion of the Churchill GAA boundary wall, at considerable expense. A new footpath was built to allow pupils walk from a potential drop zone at the entrance to Churchill GAA all the way to the front gate of the school. Sadly the Mummys' who appear to be the dumbest motorists I have witnessed over the years are still illegally parking, double parking and driving out into oncoming traffic. Absolutely no consideration is given to other road users. It is only a miracle someone has not been fatally injured at school opening and closing time.. Mummys, Spa National School is as it says on the wall , a school , not a McDonald's drive in! Perhaps Mummys it is time to return to the Driving Schools for a few lessons while Fiachra and Sneachta are busy in their place of learning:)
