There was drumming from the Tralee Resource Centre percussion band & Zumba demonstrations between 2-4, but a little after it was over, approx 50-60 teens seemed to want to drive Gillettes share price thru the roof with purchases of shaving foam, it got a bit messy as you can guess, but at least shaving foam washes out easily enough

Great how parents let their kids run riot & would probably end up blaming someone else for their kids being brought home drunk! I'm not that old, and I remember I wasn't allowed hang around in town until I was well into my teens & even then I had strict curfews. My nephew is just turned 12 & he isn't allowed either. Parents know what is going on in town on days like this, yet they let their kids hang around where there is probably going to be drink involved.

They quite literally had nothing else to do and kept themselves entertained... Only for the kids in the square there was nobody in town today from 2 o clock onwards, it was like a ghost town.

I know its only a car but it never left me down & its sad to see it not being taken care of. Theres alot to be said for trading in or selling yr car away from where you live, at least the chances are better that you'd never see it again!

I was talking to someone a while back that was paying back a loan on a car he crashed & then had to get another loan for another car - I'd be fair sick if that happened to me.
