Jokes The local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a standing €1000 bet. The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money. Many people had tried over time (weight-lifters, rugby players, etc.) but nobody could do it. One day this scrawny little man came into the bar, wearing thick glasses
and a polyester suit, and said in a tiny squeaky voice " I'd like to try the bet" After the laughter had died down, the bartender said OK, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man. But the crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and six drops fell into the glass. As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the €1000, and asked the little man "what

Nenagh Eire Og U 14s played their much anticipated county final on Thursday last against favourites Moneygall in the Ragg. It was a fantastic game full of skill and endeavour with both teams giving their all. Nenagh won 3-2 to 2-0 against a valiant Moneygall team. The team have worked really hard all year and winning silverware is what they deserve for their endeavours. On Saturday August 7th, our Under Sixteen camogie team travelled to Dundrum to play in a blitz hosted by the Knockavilla Kickhams club.
as the Under Sixteen championship is due to begin in the coming weeks. The day proved an enormous success and while we did not win, we achieved all our goals. Every member of the panel played and it was important for the Under Sixteen team to get much needed match practice together. We played very well in all our games against “A” opposition and most importantly the girls enjoyed the day. Thank you to Knockavilla Kickhams for successfully hosting and organising the blitz.
This was the first time the Under Sixteen team played together this year as the girls have been busy playing with the Under fourteen and Junior B teams. In this regard it proved a very important exercise

Back to School Tips Fruit is a great addition to any lunchbox • Buy small, sweet apple varieties, but don’t serve apples every single day! Alternate with other fruit to keep it interesting. • Oranges are hard for small hands to peel. Cut them into segments, then push them back together and wrap tightly in tin foil or cling film. Small soft citrus fruits are high in vitamin C and are perfect, but not always available. • Pears bruise very easily, but kiwis are more robust. Add a teaspoon for scooping. • Small bunches of seedless grapes always go down well. • A handful of dried fruit like mango, apricots or raisins can introduce a little
change, and counts towards their five a day. • Bananas are wonderful for an energy boost but need protection so make sure it’s in the tuber ware not mashed between the books! • Invest in some smaller, sealable tubs or pots, and send cubed melon, mixed blueberries and raspberries or diced peach. Always check to see which are the best fruits in-season.

Clonoulty Rossmore Annual Vintage Rally Clonoulty Rossmore Vintage Club will hold their 10th Annual Vintage Rally in aid of South Tipperary Hospice Movement on the 22nd August 2010 in Clonoulty Village commencing at 12 o’clock. Last year we raised €20,000.00 bringing our total presented to Hospice to date to €192,000.00. We have also given €20,000 to other charities ie., Boher, Red Cross etc.. Hopefully this years rally will be as big a success in terms of monies raised, fun had and displays as last years. Vintage cars attended ranging in age from the 1920s up to the 1980s. Many tractors were on display with such a wide variety of models to name a few a Allis Chambers also a rare Porsche tractor attended. There was also a delightful mixture of motor bikes. The motor bikes took part in a sponsored 70 mile road run which helped to boost the funds raised. Every year there is a portion of the exhibits area dedicated to stationary engines. Danny O’Dwyer RIP Fordson Major powered the Allen Threshing Mill owned by John Leamy from Dualla. It was like taking a walk down memory lane for the older among us looking at the memorabilia on display. In particular the blacksmiths forge and tools. There was a wide variety of horse and donkey drawn implements on view. Children had great fun playing with the fire blowers and railway cart. This year we are having a unique display of hay saving methods and tools ranging in sophistication from the Scythe to present day round balers together with the imple-
ments used through the ages in tillage/ gardening. Military enthusiastic were catered for with a varied list of equipment such as a Crusader Recovery Truck, Bedford Green Goddess Fire Tender ex military, Bedford 4t truck and Land Rover 101 forward controls all in working order available for inspection. Family fun is always guaranteed by the variety of sideshows and activities people can participate in. The most popular are the tractor balancing, steady hand, pegs on the line and match the make to model of car. The bouncing castle and activity center is always another hub of activity. The opening ceremony will take place at 2.00pm followed by musical entertainment which will be provided by Rebel Hearts who will play live from 2.30pm to 5pm local traditional musicians will start the entertainment off before Rebel Hearts take to the stage. Refreshments are also available on site. A souvenir programme will be available on the day, work on the many historical articles included is already underway.

Interesting Snippets Busy Year for Tipp Under 21s Eight of the Tipperary Senior Hurling Panel were on the Tipperary U-21 team which defeated Clare to win the Munster Under 21 hurling championship. They are Michael Cahill, Padraic Maher who is the U-21 captain, Brendan Maher, Seamus Hennessy, Noel McGrath, Patrick Maher, Brian O’Meara who also won a Munster U-21 football medal this year and Michael Heffernan. The will play Antrim in the All Ireland U-21 HC semi-final on August 21st. Cummins Debut and Longevity Brendan Cummins made his senior championship debut v. Waterford in the first round game at Pairc Ui Chaoimh, on May 21st 1995. Tipp had an easy win on that occasion. Overall Brendan has played against Waterford on ten occasions in the championship, winning five times and losing five. He kept a clean sheet in the 1998 and 2000 clashes at Páirc Ui Chaoimh. If selected for the All Ireland semi-final, he will make his 61st championship appearance for Tipperary, putting him in sight of Christy Ring’s All time record of 64 and putting him one ahead in appearances of Davy Fitzgerald, former Clare goalkeeper and current Waterford Manager.

Defensive quartet When Tipp lined out against Waterford in the 1998 Munster Semi Final at Páirc Ui Chaoimh, their inner defence comprised Brendan Cummins in goal, Michael Ryan at full back and Liam Sheedy at left corner back. The odd man out (who is not involved with the team this year) was Paul Shelly from Killenaule, who played at right corner back. Paul was an All Star the previous year so it was a tight defence! Even if it wasn’t a latter day ‘’Hell’s Kitchen’’ it succeeded in keeping the net intact, but Waterford’s ability to shoot points from out the field, along with Paul Flynn’s accuracy from play and frees, helped them
to a three point win 0-21 to 2-12 .In his four championship games against Waterford, this was Michael Ryan’s only loss. Surprise Results Waterford have a history of surprising Tipperary in major games, when the Premier County are favourites. Examples are the 1959 Munster Semi final in Cork, when Tipp were defending Munster and All Ireland Champions ( 9-3 to 3-4), the 1963 Munster final at Limerick when Tipp, who had trounced Waterford in the previous two finals, at the Gaelic Grounds, lost both Munster and All Ireland titles (0-11 to 0-8), the NHL’’ Home’’ Final same year ( 2-15 to 4-7 ), the 1983 Munster semi final in Cork, when Tipp were on the way back having beaten Clare in the first round, but were surprised ( 4-13 to 2-15), 1998 semi final at Cork ,when Tipp had been Munster and All Ireland runners up to Clare the previous year (0-21 to 2-12), the 2002 Munster final in Cork when Tipp were again relieved of their Munster title, as Waterford won their first in thirty nine years, with an unstoppable late surge of scoring (2-23 to 3-12), the 2006 All Ireland quarter final at Croke Park, when Waterford overturned an eight point loss in Munster (1-22 to 3-13) and of course the 2008 All Ireland Semi Final, when the White and Blue inflicted the only defeat of the year on Tipp (1-20 to 1-18). Whirlwind The July 12th 1959 semi final game, at the Cork Athletic Grounds was probably the most amazing result ever in championship hurling. Tipperary won the toss and mindful of their easy win over Waterford (4-12 to 1-5) in the previous year’s Munster Final, they gave away the advantage of the very strong wind. Waterford duly availed of this benevolence and at half time they led by 8-2 to 0-0. The second half was an anti climax and Waterford held on to win, by 9-3 to 3-4.

DONAL RYAN CRASH REPAIR Trend in new car sales continuing · 74,111 new cars sold so far this year · 47% increase on last year · Ford Focus best selling model this year Commenting on the figures, Director General of SIMI, Alan Nolan said, “Seven months into the year and the figures are still showing an increase over last year. Clearly the trend in new car sales is continuing with a steady increase
in sales month on month. This is very much in line with the data released by the CSO both on vehicle sales and on consumer spending. It is very positive that the improved sales are continuing. This is hugely important for businesses and employment in our sector as the fragility of the recovery has been underlined recently with a number of dealership closures.”
Farm Action Farm incomes This year has been a relatively good year so far for dairying, tillage and sheep. Dairy farmers and indeed some tillage farmers are now looking to expand. Farmers who are not happy with their current level of performance might consider forming a partnership on some or part of their lands. If interested contact P. J. Phelan for further information. Grassland Management. The response of grass to Nitrogen reduces from now on. Therefore if you intend to apply more nitrogen now is the time to do so. There is no advantage in waiting until later this month or for early September. Check your own fertiliser plan to see how much Nitrogen you have used so far this year relative to what you are allowed to use. Assuming that you have not used your full allocation you should now apply fertiliser as per the table below. Nitrogen applied early in August will give 10 – 15% more grass than Nitrogen applied in late August. Sulphur will still improve grass yield in August/Sept on light soils, deficient in sulphur by 3-50%. CAN +S costs €5-10 per ton extra and is well worth it. The response of grass to nitrogen application is much better in August( 12kgsDM) than in September(8kgsDM of grass per kg N applied), Reseeding Soil fertility is critical for the establishment of grassland. It is generally advisable to apply at least 1t lime per ac if

by PJ Phelan, Agricultural Advisor reseeding is done without ploughing as surface acidity is widespread in grassland. In all cases it is advisable to have soil analysed so as to determine lime Phosphate and Potash requirements. Prior to the Nitrate regulations high phosphate applications were recommended for reseeds. However you must now abide by the regulated limits Land to be reseeded should be sprayed with Glyphosate at 6 -7 days before cultivation so as to kill off old grasses and weeds. Land should then be either ploughed and tilled or simply cultivated with a disc or power harrow. It can be difficult to manage trash where ploughing is omitted. After cultivation land should be rolled so as to ensure a good firm seedbed when sowing. Sowing should be to a depth of 1cm and land rolled again after sowing. Information on suitable grass and clover varieties is available on the Department of Agriculture website or from your agricultural advisor/consultant.

Tillage Prospects for grain prices are good this year – if you are selling but are of concern if you are going to be buying grain to feed. Now is the time to consider a partnership for the future so as to remove this risk – you supply land, the tillage farmer supplies the work, you split input costs and you share the grain and the straw. The winter barley harvest is now completed with most crops yielding 2.5 – 3.5t/ac. Winter Oats is also yielding well at around 3.2 t/ac. Demand for straw is high and round bales are generally making €16/bale.

Book Review The Holy Thief by William Ryan Review by Nigel Quinlan This superb thriller, by an Irish author, is set in Moscow in 1936, a hungry, fearful place. The Revolution is in full swing. Stalin reigns supreme. The secret police stalk the streets and offices and homes and informers whisper in their ears. Every now and then the statue of a Russian hero is taken down and his picture removed and he is never heard from again. The populace walk on eggshells, but the real Terror is yet to come. The churches are deconsecrated and religion is a crime, but Russia’s long, devout history does not die easily. After the discovery of the horribly mutilated body of a women displayed on the altar of a church, Captain Alexei Dimitrevich Korolev of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Moscow Militia investigates. The discovery that the body is that of an American citizen causes grave concern and draws unwelcome attention from his superiors and from the NKVD. More bodies are discovered, and Korolev follows a trail that takes him to the lowest depths of the Moscow underworld and the highest reaches of his own organisation. Gripping and atmospheric, this debut thriller threatens to charge off into serial-killer-meets-DaVinci
Code territory, with its horrible murders and historical artefacts, but Ryan keeps the story firmly grounded, so much so that one of the most memorable sections of the book is a trip to a Spartak Moscow soccer match, depicting the crush and excitement and the hurly-burly with an impressive eye for detail. Korolev is an engaging character, strong, decent, secretly religious, determinedly optimistic about Russia’s communist future. This is the first volume of a series that promises to be one of the most interesting forays into historical crime fiction in recent years. The Holy Thief is available in paperback from Sheelagh na Gig bookshop. Call in or order by post with free post and packing. Sheelagh na Gig bookshop, Cloughjordan, is open 6 days a week: Tue-Thu 9.30am-5pm, Fri 9.30am-6pm, Sat 10am-6pm and Sunday 1pm-6pm.

Counselling
by Jim O Shea
Abuse (Continued from previous issue) Self-care, safety, healing and forgiveness, following leaving an abusive relationship. 2. Reacting to the separation. There are three aspects to this – experiencing the pain, identifying and feeling the loss, and expressing all the psychological reactions to it, and finally identifying and mourning secondary losses. This means thinking about the pain and (slowly) entering it. Entering it means experiencing all the feelings which I have outlined in my articles on bereavement (anger, guilt, loneliness, sadness, longing, and so on). Indentifying and mourning secondary losses is vitally important otherwise each one will act as a trigger and bring on a reaction to the main loss of the relationship. It is difficult to outline secondary losses because they are unique to each individual. They might be as follows: • Grieving the end of one’s dreams. This could mean recalling the beginning of the relationship, looking at photographs and the dreams of being together forever. • Grieving the loss of innocence. This involves the pain of having trust broken, the realisation that the partner’s love was not real, and for the loss of youth, perhaps. • Grieving the end of hope. It is so difficult to let go of the hope that it is all over, that there will be no more opportunities to make things right, that the family will never be under the same roof again. • Grieving the loss of a partner’s good qualities, and the fact that he/she can never express their love again • Grieving the role the partner played in his/her life, the giving of advice, not having a companion, the loneliness of coping alone. • Grieving the loss of illusions about the relationship, and the refusal of the abusive partner to try and change. • Grieving the lack of closure. Unless the abuser changes it will never be possible to say good-bye to him/her or to the relationship. The abuser will not take responsibility, and so it is impossible to say a proper good-bye. Think of the agony of
families one of whose members is missing, presumed dead. No closure. • Grieving that the children will never have a father/mother who maturely loves them, but who may enter their lives when they are adults. • Grieving the damage done to children, the failure sometimes to protect them from the abusive parent, how vulnerable they were in the face of this abuse, the fear and pain they suffered when they were small. • Grieving the loss of years that cannot be reclaimed • Grieving the loss of memories. They cannot be recalled with healing in the absence of the partner. But it is not possible to recall them with an abusive ex-partner. • Grieving the loss of the man/woman in the survivor’s life. The loneliness gives the impetus to find another intimate relationship, but this may not happen. There is also the loneliness of losing other relationships with mutual married couples or friends • Grieving the loss of an exclusive relationship whereby the partner is also free to form intimate relationships. The shock of learning about such relationships can be very painful. Continued in next issue) Jim O’Shea works as a counsellor from Furze, Thurles. Ph. 087 8211009 www.jimoshea.net . JimO’Shea’s book ‘When a child dies. Footsteps of a Grieving Family’ is published by Veritas. The royalties from this book will go tosthe Children’s Hospital in Crumlin.
