The other interesting aspect is that it appears it wants to hightail it to London for the bankruptcy tourism but I doubt that is going to stack up for him if he has to face charges in Ireland.

Yes, bearing in mind the charges for hit and run , a serious enough offence, will be brought by the DPP, I am surprised he can simply skip off to jolly olde London town

Poor Da thought I'd completely lost it, going to try and continue and go as often as I can for as long as I can without getting hypothermia, seem such a silly thing to waste a perfectly good swimming pool

while Im at it, im thinking of going back to Fenit to fish for a day next week, am I right in believing there's no bus from Tralee?? :O

No buses running.

But there is a Jag doing a daily run who might take you in the boot if your lucky!

There are a number of Tralee Bay Swimming Club Members who swim in Fenit 365 days per year. Obviously the Christmas Day Swim is a major event in the Calendar when approx 300 swimmers go in for the dip. May I suggest joining the Swimming Club, they are a very nice bunch of people.
They swim in the area known as the diving boards, ask someone and they will direct you.
There is A CIE bus servicing Fenit on Friday's

Buy a half decent 5mm wetsuit and you can swim all year round

I posted this in the Woodworking forum, but got no responses so I thought I would post here.
I'm looking for logs for carving. Does anyone know where I can get them in Tralee?

What type timber and what size?

Any type timber and relatively any size, but it has to be logs not sawn timber.

did anyone head back to Dingle for the Food & drink festival? I was hoping to, but no such luck.

We did and it was lovely.
Dingle was mobbed and there was a huge selection of different foods to try.
I ended up buying a lovely pot of Dandelion Honey

My only real criticism was there was a fair amount of over priced stuff tbh.
(However the bulk of the stalls were excellent value, and their sellers were very helpful

Give these lads a ring,there out in Ballyroe

They supply all types of hardwood but might be able to source logs as well

Might be worth a shot

I'm 100% Stacks, its in the blood....literally

can't wait to put the flags up in work

lol:D

Kerrydude1981

Will the final be on in Killarney this time?

Or will it be in Tralee and we get to see the march of the Rockies again

Cant see them beating the Crokes though

If there was a championship for supporters then the Stacks would win,always bring a lot of colour and banter,makes a good
atmosphere.

Speaking of colour and good atmosphere,County Hurling final on next weekend,always a good day out.St Brendan's against Lixnaw
