Neighbours fired up but no one was alarmed JIMMY RHATIGAN JIMMYRHATIGAN@GMAIL.COM

IT WAS proof positive that the neighbours and friends of a proud city estate were all fired up as they celebrated 60 glorious years. Over 400 men and women, proud to be called residents of Newpark on the periphery of our city, turned up for a Mass of Celebration and dinner party at O’Loughlin Gaels GAA Club on Friday. A local committee that produced a booklet on the life and times of six decades of Newpark, did its homework well, ensuring that the

gathering would pass any test. Pride in place was evident as people were fired up for the big night. Just how fired up is a moot point, answered perhaps when the fire alarm at O’Loughlin’s blared for circa five minutes during Mass in the club gymnasium. But there was no need to press any panic button. The congregation was assured by celebrant, Fr Sean O’Connor that all was safe and there would be no need for a fire brigade. “The alarm is a new one and we now know that it is working well,” he quipped.

Assisting at the ceremony were Poulgour man, Fr Jimmy Murphy of St Canice’s Parish and Fr Tommy Murphy of the Rower Inistioge and Kilkenny GAA fame, one time member of the parish team at the O’Loughlin Memorial Church of St John the Evangelist. The GAA club’s sports hall resembled the dining room of a top class hotel, beautifully decorated, neatly laid out. Cullen Catering proved to be the icing on the cake as party-goers enjoyed a sumptuous repast. The event was a mirror image of life in Newpark over the years, families praying

together and then enjoying breakfast. Watergate Theatre guru and long time Newpark resident, Gerry Cody welcomed friends, countrymen and any Romans who might have strayed in. Post dinner speakers included organising committee chairman, Donie Butler, County Council chairman, Matt Doran and Mayor Patrick O’Neill. Donie said how proud he was of his fellow committee members who had worked so hard to bring the night of celebration to fruition. Committee PRO Murty

Brennan introduced a slideshow of old photographs kindly loaned by residents. The photographic journey down memory lane was admired and appreciated, evoking memories of the Newpark of yore. Seamus and Tom Brophy were thanked for their work on the slideshow. The Evelyn White School of Irish Dancing provided a fantastic 10-minutes of foot-tapping entertainment, a rival perhaps for Riverdance. A night of wining, dining and delightful dancing was complemented by chats of yesteryear, the renewal

of old friendships, former neighbours and promises to keep in touch. The get-together was voted a huge success. And out of what we respectfully call acorns, a mighty oak may grow as plans are in train to form a Newpark Residents’ Association. Once more a local community had shown loyalty and respect as they voted with their feet to support an occasion to cherish. More pics Pages 60&61 Editorial Comment Page 20

Dirty Dancing at the castle A SERIES of open air screenings is to be presented in the surrounds of Kilkenny Castle. The last in the series, Dirty Dancing, will screen on September 15. Gates open at 7.30pm with the film to start around 8pm. Frances, dubbed Baby Houseman, a sweet daddyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s girl, goes with her family to a resort in upstate New Yorkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catskill Mountains. Baby has grown up in privileged surrounds and all expect her to go to college, join the Peace Corps and save the world before marrying a doctor, just like her father. Unexpectedly, Baby becomes infatuated with the campâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dance instructor, Johnny Castle, a man whose background is vastly different from her own. Tickets are through usheru until 2pm on the day of the screening. Tickets also at the door, U12s â&#x201A;¬8, adults â&#x201A;¬10.

Chinese couple fly here to wed JIMMY RHATIGAN JIMMYRHATIGAN@GMAIL.COM

IT WAS perhaps the first Chinese wedding in our city. A young couple from Shanghai with Kilkenny connections jetted here to tie the knot. They fell in love in China and came to what the bride’s mother calls our beautiful city for their marriage ceremony.

And while bride, Hu Chen Jia Lu and her groom, Yank Yi Meng, will continue to live and work in Shanghai, they have already built foundations here as Hu Chen purchased a house locally. The local connection is that Hu Chen’s mother, Annie Chen has been in business here for two years. She is owner of The Better Care Clinic at The

Butterslip off High Street and she is delighted to be living here. “Yes, the city is really beautiful,” Annie enthused. “The people here are delightful.” At her clinic, Annie practises respected Chinese Medicine, including acupuncture. Visits to the clinic are by appointment. A reception for a small number of family members

and friends was held in the Left Bank at the Parade. “It would be correct to say that Hu Chen and Yang Yi were married here and also spent their honeymoon in a city of beauty,” Annie added. Shanghai is the most populous city in China. It has a population of 24 million people, and counting.

Family members attended a reception

The couple and the mother of the bride, Annie Chen were greeted at Kilkenny Castle Park by our Mayor Patrick O’Neill

Beautiful: Hu Chen and Yang Yi on their wedding day

Raised by a family of wolves since birth, Mowgli (Neel Sethi) must leave the only home heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ever known when the fearsome tiger Shere Khan (Idris Elba) unleashes his mighty roar. Guided by a no-nonsense panther (Ben Kingsley) and a free-spirited bear (Bill Murray), the young boy meets an array of jungle animals, including a slithery python and a smooth-talking ape. Along the way, Mowgli learns valuable life lessons as his epic journey of self-discovery leads to fun and adventure.

Business of the week

Album of the week

Tyreland

Wilco Schmilco byWilco

Tyreland Tyres Kilkenny is a local company serving the tyre needs of the motoring community of Cuffestgrange, Co. Kilkenny. The fast fit operation is equipped to fit tyres on all types of cars, Jeeps and light commercials. They stock a wide range of tyre brands to suit all budgets and can also offer more specialist stocks if required. Services include tyre fittings, wheel balancing and tracking and almost every job will be completed while you wait. Call 0567729111 for more details.

Few bands display the wide swings of style and temperament that characterise Wilcoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career. In contrast to the experimentalism of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s album Star Wars, the music on Wilco Schmilco seems diffident and restrained, mostly built around the folk-rock strummings of Jeff Tweedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s acoustic guitar, with minimal embellishments. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly the right approach for the bitter, painfully personal songs he has written here, which address the living and the dead, the loving and the lost, and Tweedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s furies and frustrations.

Hotel of the week

Mount Juliet Mount Juliet was a family home until 1989 and remains one of Irelandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest country houses, as well as being Co. Kilkennyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most acclaimed country Estate. A stay at Mount Juliet is a truly unique experience. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a place to come and be who you want to be, whether that involves fishing, riding, golfing, archery, falconry or the absolute indulgence of their treatment rooms and health club. Visit mountjuliet.ie for more information.

Restaurant of the week

Game of the week

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is nintendoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s followup to Twilight princess. The best way to describe it is a combination of the colorful art style of Windwaker and the more mature look of Twilight Princess. The plot of the game is the usual save the damsel in distress with a few twists. For once their is a entirely original villain in the form of Girahim and this game has complete one-to-one motion controls for combat.

Movie of the week

La Rivista

Captain Fantastic

La Rivista Restaurant is all about good food, fine wines, top class service and great value for money. Located on Kilkennyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s historic Parliament Street, just a short walk from Kilkenny Castle, La Rivista offers fine Italian dining to suit all tastes and budgets. Daily specials and set menus offering great value mean you can come in for a quick bite before the theatre (Kilkennyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Watergate theatre is a stoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s throw away) or sit back and enjoy the full A La Carte menu.

Ben Cash (Viggo Mortensen), his wife Leslie and their six children live deep in the wilderness of Washington state. Isolated from society, Ben and Leslie devote their existence to raising their kids -- educating them to think critically, training them to be physically fit and athletic, guiding them in the wild without technology and demonstrating the beauty of coexisting with nature. When Leslie dies suddenly, Ben must take his sheltered offspring into the outside world for the first time.

Book of the week

The Girl with the Lower Back Tatoo by Amy Schumer The Emmy Award-winning comedian, actress, writer has taken the entertainment world by storm with her winning blend of smart, satirical humor. Now, Amy Schumer has written a refreshingly candid and uproariously funny collection of extremely personal and observational essays. Amy mines her past for stories about her teen years, her family, relationships, and sex and shares the experiences that have shaped who she is today.

App of the week

RunGo This is a running app with a twist, because it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t require you to memorise new routes or resort to constantly checking your phone to see where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going. As well as all the usual running app features, RunGo has turn-by-turn voice navigation, so when you pop your phone in your pocket an your headphones over your ears, it tells you exactly where you need to be going. It even warns you if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve strayed off course.
