Tralee Thread (No chit-chat)

Tomthepost

This is a call to all boards members with Tralee connections to get a bit of a community spirit going like the good people of Listowel and Ballybunion who both have fantastic threads going.
Lets get a Tralee one up and running!!!
I have noticed alot of people start threads looking for information on Tralee. Perhaps this thread can be a central forum to help assist them with their queries.
Im now based in Dublin but like to keep up to date with what is happening perhaps people based in Tralee can assist me and others based away through this thread.
Your support in getting this up and running would be greatly appreciated.

I see that 'Mods & Minis' kids clothing is opening in where 'U Save' used to be in the Mall!

I still can't figure out where 'Rockalily' is opening, is it in the old Boots unit? Its meant to be opening on Saturday, but no signs up or anything so not sure.

a good stretch of the Oakpark road has no street lights working & is very dark! Hopefully they will have it sorted tomorrow. The electricity in Ardfert only came back in the last hour! I've friends living there who not only had no electricity, but no water either!

A friend in Kileen said she only got her electricity back at lunchtime today! We were so lucky where we are in Oakpark, it seemed to only be off briefly!

27 trees down in the town park I'm told, it really is amazing that no one was killed, or seemingly seriously hurt for that matter?

That's due to a fallen tree on power lines in the alleyway across from Oakland's Daybreak.

Fair dues to all the ESB crews out working in this brutal weather.
They are really earning their money today.

Sure there are thousands without power and they are working in terrible conditions. My post was not meant in any way to criticise the ESB staff.

KGH have loads of time to prepare for the surge of babies coming mid-November as there is nothing else to do without the lecky.

Wow, thanks so much for posting this!! I am a nostalgia nut so this footage is heaven for me. I've spent the last 2 hours glued to this. Great to see so many buildings, shops, places etc that are no longer around and that I had long forgotten. I even saw my old home in Strand Street and recognised a few faces. Happy memories!!

Anyone try out the new Burger King/foodcourt yet? What's it like?

Anyone run the 10 miler today?

michael999999

Eircom worker from west cork killed by a falling pole today while trying to repair lines.

Puts it in perspective really. Maybe have a little think about this before we criticise these guys and there wages.

Heard people saying it was 9.86 miles rather than 10

. Bit of a balls if your timing yourself to do 10 not less.

On a unrelated note am sorry but one of the Marshalls blocking the roads could not be more up themselves if they tried. One in particular you would swear he/she was part of a presidential motorcade.

But on a positve note looked to be a great turnout, plenty of proud faces in finish, fair play to them.

Any truth in the rumour that a KFC franchise may be moving into the old randles show rooms in manor???

Kentucky fried bollox I'd say, yet another rumour of KFC coming until I see it I'll never believe that rumour again.

great footage of Tralee in 1983!! some of it looks just the same & other parts look so remote, which are now built up now! I'd forgotten about some businesses that were there, and others like the Slieve Mish in Boherbee and Hokee in Castle street are still there now!!

Thanks Kingdumb, thats really brullent!

I posted here some time back about chippers in Tralee and remember the Golden Grill in Moyderwell!

Its amazing how quiet the streets were. Was it a sunday afternoon? So many mature trees around Ballymullen and the Library prefabs. Ballymullen is such an historic part of our Town. Notice how pedestrians just casually walk out in front of traffic. Notice the bill posting bollard at Ballymullen ... there was another one at stacks villas.

Summer 83 was a hot summer and the new hospital had just opened.
