Waterford Mail 4 June2015

ID YOU KNOW that each year, in a hard water area, the average family home will use water containing 154lbs (70kg) of scale. If left unchecked, this mountain of limescale can cause serious â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and expensive damage to your home plumbing and appliances, kitchen and bathroom fittings too. The Carbon Trust estimate that just 1mm of limescale in water pipes can increase energy consumption by 7%. With utility bills set to rise for the foreseeable future, this represents a significant cost to the average family home. Your household plumbing becomes increasingly inefficient, which makes heating your water extremely expensive. For example, a boiler with just 5mm of scale takes an extra 4 hours to supply the average homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hot water â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 90 minutes is all it should take! And, of course, this limescale finds its way into your household appliances too. Just take a look into most kettles and the evidence is there for all to see. The furred up heating element, the heavily stained inside and the nasty flakes of scale which find their way into your morning cuppa. Yes, you can buy a new kettle for less than a tenner, but washing machines and dishwashers are much more expensive to replace. Limescale build-up reduces the lifespan of the appliance and increases the likelihood of a breakdown. And who couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do without the expense of calling out a plumber these days? Even if you ignore the hidden dangers lurking in your water system, physical evidence of limescale damage is all too evident throughout your home. In the kitchen, taps, tiles and stainless steel surfaces all bear the hallmarks of limescale damage. Evidence can be found on your pots and pans and, unless your dishwasher has just been installed, you will find tell tale water spots and stains on justwashed glasses and cutlery too. In bathrooms and WCs, toilets, taps and tiles are dulled with scale damage, and the once-sparkling sink and shiny shower enclosure are almost impossible to keep clean for any length of time. Even freshly washed clothes feel rough to the touch, and tiny scale particles can contribute to incidences of dry, irritating skin for yourself and family members. New home builders and renovation companies are waking up to the damage limescale can cause, and the cost implications of leaving it unchecked. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the point in investing in that sparkly new kitchen or bathroom, only to see the shine come off within months, thanks to the build-up of limescale.

HE GOOD NEWS is that limescale can be permanently removed from your home quickly and easily, using a system that can pay for itself in the first 18 months. After that, the significant savings are yours to keep... year after year! A whole-house Gold Series Water Softener System from EWT provides real cost savings in terms of service, maintenance and replacement of water heaters, dishwashers, washing machines and showers, and also extends their life expectancy. SAVE MONEY, TIME AND WATER! Independent research on the benefits of EWTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gold Series System shows it can pay for itself in a matter of months. A lifetime of softened water will help you save time, water and money â&#x20AC;&#x201C; up to â&#x201A;Ź600 annually on detergents, heating and appliances

THE HIDDEN DANGERS OF

LIMESCALE

HOW MUCH IS LIMESCALE COSTING YOU? Removing limescale from your cylinder can cut the cost of heating your water by 25%. Kitchen appliances operate more efficiently and last longer without maintenance. Just 1mm of limescale on pipes can increase energy consumption by over 7%, adding hundreds of pounds to the average homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heating bills.

Softeners help preserve the efficiency of water heaters and major appliances, and keep showers and taps unclogged, the report found. In the study, dishwashers and washing machines were operated for 30 days and 240 completed wash cycles on soft and hard water sources. The units using soft water were almost completely free of any water scale build-up. Units using hard water showed the need for deliming and cleaning due to the build-up of scale and deposits.

THINK you’ve got dry skin? It may just be dehydrated – and there’s a host of products out there to help combat it. Like many women, you may think you have dry skin, but there’s a good chance you really don’t. Dehydrated skin can be tight, flaky and sore. It isn’t lacking in oil, though – like dry skin is - but in water. Don’t groan, I’m not about to advocate a 72-litre daily intake of Volvic – dehydrated skin can be cheated back to health, though if your complexion resembles the last rice cake in the packet some extra sips won’t go amiss. Identifying dehydration before you go shopping is half the battle won. If you have lots of very fine, almost crepey lines (as opposed to deep wrinkles), and you’re prone to a dull complexion that’s temporarily plumped, pink and healthy-looking when you emerge from the shower, and you break out when you treat your skin with rich, dry-skin moisturiser, then you probably have dehydrated skin. Luckily, now that the beauty industry at last understands the difference, there’s a host of goodies, usually containing hyaluronic acid (a natural acid present in the body that holds 1,000 times its weight in water) and natural humectants such as glycerin, to fix the problem. Look out for these ingredients and your skin’s thirst may finally be quenched.

Quench your skin’s thirst

NATURAL BEAUTY: HOMEMADE HAIR MASK USING entirely humble natural ingredients that are normally available in your kitchen, you can easily make incredible at home hair masks for dry hair to bring back your dry, damaged hair back to life. HUMBLE COCONUT OIL DRY HAIR PACK Due to Coconut oil’s fatty acids, protein, vitamins B and C, zinc, iron and potassium contents, it can work as one of the best dry hair treatments. Simply massage extra virgin coconut oil onto your scalp and hair, whenever you feel your hair is suffering a lot of stress. METHOD: Apply organic coconut oil into your hair section by section; massage it gently into your scalp and your hair, working downwards from hair roots till the ends. Wrap your head and hair in a warm towel, leaving it there for about 20 minutes. Rinse, wash and condition your hair as you normally do.

Summer dresses to suit your shape THE shops are awash in dresses to suit every shape and size, right now - the problem is choosing a shape to flatter your figure. Read on for some top tips to help save you from making an expensive mistake. THE SHIFT DRESS The Sixties-inspired shift dress is popular this season but don’t feel you have to opt for a style that may not suit. If you are slender, standard shaped or tall wear this and enjoy over jeans, leggings or bare legs. If you’re top heavy it will make your body look boxy. THE WRAP DRESS It is still in the shops several seasons after it was relaunched and do you know why? Because it is so universally flattering and retailers don’t want to let go of a good thing when they see one. Slender and curvaceous alike can enjoy this style. THE SMOCK DRESS Your smock dress needs to be in soft material that has some movement, this way it will not stick out from the bust and look like strange costume but rather follow the shape of your body. This look is great for apple shapes looking for coverage around the tummy area and slender bodies looking for fullness.

Cat napper I can’t guarantee this top will help you play better basketball, but at least you’ll look the part! Eye-catching and on-trend tops like this one - adidas NBA Basketball Jersey Lakers, are always a great addition to your summer wardrobe. Price: €60, from Lifestyle Sports, Waterford Shopping Centre

THE EMPIRE LINE DRESS This creates a gentle definition and femininity around the upper body. With the waistline raised up to under the bust it will always create the effect of elongating the legs and make the body appear taller – so great for petites. THE MAXI DRESS This one is just great for coverage. You can look feminine and well turned out without having to make a great effort to co-ordinate various separates. PS Petites: choose a style that allows for some ankle and foot showing, this way you will not look like the dress is swamping your small frame. THE FIFTIESINFLUENCED WAISTED DRESS WITH FLARED SKIRT Designed in a time when curvaceous women were idealised by all, a dress that has fit around the waist a flare at the skirt will always make the waist look smaller and more dainty.

Jump to it Dorothy Perkins @ Shaws, provides affordable, fun and feminine fashion, like this Pinstripe Jumpsuit. The ranges are updated weekly and the brand offers sizes 6 to 22 for most items with a wide range of collections including Tall, Petite, Maternity, Lingerie, Shoes and Accessories.

THE PARENT FILES

Waterford Mail 4 June 2015

Family life The Parent Files By Heather Campbell

Toddlers – a very brief guide

Sibling rivalry remedies

MAYBE you’re a new parent, or want to be a parent someday. Or you’re long past your ToddlerWrangling Years and want to look back with nostalgia and sometime heart-stopping terror over that time. And so, I present to you a few minor observations of toddlerdom. When you have a newborn, you take solace in the naïve belief that it will be easier to cut his or her nails later on, when the teeny-tiny nails and fingers are bigger. You are, sadly, mistaken; the nails and fingers grow in direct proportion to your child’s strength, squirminess, and vocal opposition to the nail-cutting process. You will also discover strange new substances. For example, the future of adhesive technology is here: today’s scientists need look no further than the inside of a toddler’s nose for the stickiest substance on earth. When it comes to the sartorial eccentricities of a three-yearold, never forget, there is no one right way to dress a toddler in the morning, but many wrong ones. I have tried them all. Without food and sleep they morph into Damien (Omen)/ Regan (The Exorcist). Two guaranteed meltdown triggers, are: hungry and tired. May the gods help you if both the sleep and food boxes remain unchecked. If ever you are near a toddler and you’re like, “I have no idea what’s wrong with this flailing creature,” ask yourself — when did they last eat? And when did they last sleep? Fix one or both as swiftly as the timespace continuum allows. No matter how hard you fight it, you will eventually succumb to ‘mum car’ – a backseat strewn with old Cheerios, raisins, and remnants of an unidentifiable substance that smells bad and attracts fruit flies. At every baby clinic checkup, there will be at least one thing on the “at this age, your child should regularly be able to…” checklist that you are 100% certain your child has never even contemplated doing. Depending on your mood that day, you may or may not lie to them about your child’s ability to do this thing...

HILE many kids are lucky enough to become the best of friends with their siblings, it’s common for brothers and sisters to fight. Every relationship has conflict – it’s normal and inevitable to disagree. However, the determining factor in the quality of the relationship is how the fights get resolved. First, know that there are basically four types of sibling conflict and that each is driven by an underlying feeling. Here are the reasons kids fight, and what the child’s underlying feelings are… BOREDOM What better way for your child to have some fun when he’s bored than to bug someone he knows is going to give him a great reaction? Unhelpful parent strategy: Ignoring the fight and punishing your child. Helpful parent strategy: Give your child a new, interesting activity that is work, fun or something to do with you or someone else. Casually separating the children also helps, but don’t make it an enforced time-out. PARENTAL ATTENTION Your child is feeling left out, unloved, or un-noticed, and is silently screaming, “Notice me, whether negatively or positively, just notice me!” Unhelpful parent strategy: Giving negative attention in the form of a punishment, time-out, or time spent playing judge and jury. Helpful parent strategy: Avoid punishments. Ignore the fighting, but give more individual time and attention later when the fighting has subsided. Schedule a date night or time alone with just that child. Acknowledge pleasant sibling interactions when they occur.

ISSUES Your child is angry because he perceives that he’s being victimised, or has feelings of frustration or injustice. Unhelpful parent strategy: Playing judge by directing who the perpetrator and victim was, and how restitution should be made, according to how you see things. Taking away fought over toys or privileges. Punishing both children regardless of the issue. Helpful parent strategy: Avoid punishments. Accept and acknowledge each child’s feelings and point of view and try to help them express it to the other child. Help them come to solutions that both agree on (help them generate the ideas rather than doing it for them). ACCUMULATED RESENTMENT This type of fighting usually occurs when the other three types of fights are resolved by unhelpful parenting strategies. Your child may be feeling accumulated hatred and resentments towards his sibling, and may also be feeling jealousy, unworthiness, unloved, victimised, unvalued, or discarded Unhelpful parenting strategies: Group punishments, taking away toys or privileges, comparisons, and labeling. Being a judge without hearing or seeing the whole story. Helpful parent strategies: Notice generous, loving, caring, behaviour and point it out to the children in specific language. Avoid labels and comparisons. Love each child best. Encourage accomplishments and efforts of each child. Accept and acknowledge all feelings of each child, even if you don’t agree with them. Give a lot of individual attention and time to each child.

ARMED FOR FUN Mamas & Papas Octopus Activity Gym is a brightly coloured, soft play mat suitable from birth. Octopus’ padded head suitable for tummy time. Easy to pack away with reusable bag. Featuring four toys with rattles and squeaks to entertain your little one. Price: €66, from Mum n Me, Tramore Road Business Park.

Book of the week

App of the week

The Woman Who Stole My Life, by Marian Keyes

Meerkat (Android)

One day, sitting in traffic, married Dublin mum Stella Sweeney attempts a good deed. The resulting car crash changes her life. For she meets a man who wants her telephone number (for the insurance, it turns out). That’s okay. She doesn’t really like him much anyway (his Range Rover totally banjaxed her car).But in this meeting is born the seed of something which will take Stella thousands of miles from her old life, turning an ordinary woman into a superstar, and, along the way, wrenching her whole family apart.

The big social media streaming battle is a heavy weight title fight between Meerkat and Twitter’s Periscope. While the latter has the former on the ropes, Meerkat is making some interesting moves to change the tide. Not only is Meerkat the first of the two to be available for Android, they’ve also integrated closely Facebook after Twitter kicked them out the door. Either way, Android fans can now actively participate in a digital movement. (Free)

Waterford sounds Each week Brian Kennedy brings you the best of bands, groups and solo artists that Waterford has to offer. A little bit Keane WITH such great local talent in the town, punters do get a broad spectrum of acts and artists to choose from, one of those is Waterford-born, singer/ songwriter, John Keane. Relatively new to the scene but a confident and assured performer, John pens his own material and is soon to release ‘Chasing the Whale’ EP.

Maverick Sabre

Waterford Mail

4 June 2015

Art box The likeable Waterfordian takes his influences from artists such as Glenn Hansard, Damien Rice and Ray Lamontagne to name but a few. You can catch John’s act in places like the Cove Bar who have set up a weekly session for all types of singers – the Attic Sessions, every Wednesday at 9pm and the monthly Open Mic nights at Central Hall, and keep an eye out for his support slots at the Artbeat festival over the summer..

A born Maverick One of the most unique sounds that have just been added to an ever impressive Weekender Festival is that of Maverick Sabre. London-born but Irish-raised, the multi talented singer can count Acoustic/Soul/Hip-hop/ Folk/ in his repertoire and is a welcome addition suirside. Although new on the scene he had been touted by Hot Press as far back at five years ago as the next big thing to make it off this island. Releasing his first single ‘Let Me Go’ in 2011, just out of his teens, he has got himself some serious street cred playing many gigs and festivals since and amazing a dedicated following. A spot landed on Jeff Wayne’s ‘War of The Worlds – The New Generation’ proved another highlight for the 24 year old Hackney boy. Throw in a wonderful debut album ‘Lonely Are The Brave’ in 2012 and Maverick has laid a marker for originality that others might find a wee bit hard to follow.

Ceramic Sculptures by Polona Simonic

In my work inadequacy and perfection, beauty and turmoil all seem to fuse, while there isn’t any explicit subject matter much of my inspiration comes from the disparate worlds of religious iconography, architecture and fashion. While different aspects of these references can entice and alienate the link for me lies in sumptuous visual display and experience of pleasure. I like the work to speak of a state that is in constant flux providing an experience that can enrich the mundane. While I don’t plan a painting I am constantly on the lookout for sources and flashes of inspiration. Like a magpie I pick things up if I feel they are interesting; letting objects materials and images sit around the studio for a while has a great appeal for me. Ideas, images and objects get filtered, deconstructed and transformed and find their own way to settle into the process which is defined by its own aesthetic.

Polona explains: “My work is embracing, visual and spiritual space with dynamic decoration that is bringing the subconscious side of the individual to the physical world -like a human spirit: when it is empty of expectations, the ability to accept new ideas and happiness arises. Inspiration

Opening Saturday 6th June with guest speaker Michael Beirne, Garter Lane Arts Centre.

On the stage Peter Pan the Musical Following their successful showcase in October, TheatreBox Stage School’s Juniors & Inters Classes proudly present Peter Pan the Musical in their end-of-year showcase. This classic musical is filled with song and dance, telling

the timeless tail of Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Wendy, The Darling Children, The Lost Boys & Pirates, as they journey to find Neverland and never grow up. Thursday June 4th – Sunday June 7th, Garter Lane Arts Centre, 7.30pm. Tickets: €18/ €16.

for my objects is coming from awareness of the powerful image of a vessel and a symbol that appeared through history in many religious traditions, spiritual cultures and dreams. My vessels got another connotation or a meaning rather than just primary function.” Opening Saturday 6th June, Supported by AIB Waterford, Garter Lane Arts Centre.

Rated 12A Barden University’s all-female a cappella team, the Barden Bellas, return to take on the world championship in ‘Pitch Perfect 2’, a competition no American team has ever won. Unprepared for the strength of the European team, Das Sound Machine, and out of their depth, the Bellas have no choice but to drastically up their game if they want to have a chance of winning - and it’s a slim chance, because the international jury hates all Americans. Directed by Elizabeth Banks (‘The Hunger Games’) and starring Anna Kendrick (‘Into The Woods’) and Rebel Wilson (‘Bridesmaids’), ‘Pitch Perfect 2’ is the much-anticipated sequel to 2012’s smash hit. Pitch Perfect 2 is fun, goofy and an overall crowd-pleaser. It has a formula to it, but that won’t bother fans of the original.

Multi award winning journalist and author Robert Fisk, travel writer and presenter Charley Boorman and intrepid explorer and author Jonathan Shackleton are just some of the global travel writers about to set their compass for Lismore in County Waterford this June 11th to 14th for the thirteenth annual Immrama Festival of Travel Writing. Immrama (an old Irish word for journey), has been held in Lismore on a weekend in June each year since 2003 dedicated to the art of Travel Writing, Good Music, and Fine Entertainment since its inception.

San Andreas Rated 12A In the movie, Dwayne Johnson stars as Ray Gaines, an elite LAFD rescue-helicopter pilot who has a long career of daring rescues, with more than 600 people saved. Between his skills with a chopper and his incredible personal strength, he is the ideal hero to call into action when the biggest earthquake of all-time hits California, as his abilities and resources could be used to save another hundred people from perilous situations. Unfortunately, this is actually the furthest thing from Ray’s mind when the San Andreas Fault rips open, as instead of going around and saving individuals in need, he shirks all of his legitimate responsibilities and orders in the name of saving his ex-wife and capable daughter – the latter being up in San Francisco and really surviving just fine on her own.

Cinema La Boheme Live performance of La Boheme by the Royal Opera House at the SGC Cinema, Dungarvan. A lost key and an accidental touch of cold hands in the dark - so begins one of the greatest romances of all opera. Anna Netrebko and Joseph Calleja star in the live cinema relay. When Rodolfo, a penniless poet, meets Mimi, a seamstress,

they fall passionately in love. But their happiness is threatened when Rodolfo learns that Mimi is gravely ill. Rodolfo, painfully aware that he cannot afford the medicine and care Mimi needs, separates from her. At the end of her life Mimi returns to Rodolfo’s garret. They ecstatically embrace - but, despite the care of Rodolfo and his friends, Mimi dies. Wednesday 10th June. SGC Cinema, Dungarvan, 7.15pm.

CROSSWORDS If for reasons that aren’t entirely clear, you felt ‘low’ over the weekend, all could change after Tuesday’s Full Moon in another of the Fire signs. This lunation is, for you, the annual one that energises your latent adventurer. By Friday you’ll surely want to see a plan. You may find others are in highly emotional state. It’s likely that your own heart-strings will be pulled as well. This may be linked to pending separation. Your reaction to events might not be entirely calm or logical! You may also find that following from this, you’re asked to make a tough decision midweek. Coming so soon after a weekend of wishful thinking, you are likely to be in heightened state of awareness. With others in highly emotional state, it’s entirely possible that you could mis-read signals. If you can, save any major decision-making until closer to the weekend. Perhaps you feel under a lot of pressure? Things should quieten from midweek but not, perhaps, before you feel you need to draw a line in the sand with a work partner who keeps moving goal posts so that a task never gets near the finishing line. Before the weekend brighter lights should beckon. You may do rather better in a test than you imagine. It’s perhaps the case that your inner critic has surfaced. With one foot most definitely ‘on the ground’, you could make progress having convinced yourself that the first step to success is to think positively. A shift in priorities - and family dynamics - seems entirely possible. You may also be caught between work projects and there could come a point where you feel it’s all far too much for you. In midweek the steadying influence of someone who’s seen you deal well with challenges in the past could be timely.

SUDOKU

You may sense that time is of the essence and that there are certain matters you need to have resolved before your birthday month. You may also be aware that it’s worth taking time to mop up a mess now and that with this straightened you could then move forward with ease. It wouldn’t be surprising if you felt that others have been over-reacting. Maybe you are doing the same, just hiding it better. A few other aspects thrown in suggests a degree of mayhem. By midweek it should be plain that matters cannot continue as such but this is unlikely to be a problem for you. Concerns about a partnership may be highlighted. You might, of course, both be dealing with loss or potential loss. Work-wise this might not be the easiest of times. Those who promised much could pull out of deals - or at least alert you to difficulties promoting you to think about Plan Bs - and several of them. Growing doubts as to whether you can cope with a situation could peak around Tuesday’s Full Moon. At this point the scale of opposition should be apparent. Though it might suit you to get others to agree and to sign on the dotted line midweek, a few could feel railroaded. You may experience disappointment at some level - possibly let-down by someone for whom transport issues are presently a major difficulty. Midweek you may need reassurance that they want to continue working with you. It could be that they don’t feel able to give definitive response just yet. Property matters require complete focus. It might be that things don’t go entirely to plan (anything from being unable to match a colour to dealing with scaffolding). Whether this affects you more on the home or work front, it wouldn’t be surprising if you experience some distress midweek.

Award winning cheese BACK in the early 1980s, Eamonn Lonergan had a dream of setting up a cheese company. With the support of his parents Ned and Mai, sister Beatrice and her husband David on their dairy farm, he began to research the farmhouse cheese industry. After many years of research and product development that dream became a reality. Now nearly two decades later with the help of his wife Patricia and their

children Aisling, Orla, Lisa, Edward and Joanne, their cheese is sold all over the world. Knockanore Farmhouse Cheese is carefully manufactured from full cream cows milk produced from the Lonergan Pedigree Friesian herd. It is then turned into wheels of the finest cheese in the world. Some of these wheels are then carefully selected and smoked, using a blend of oak hardwood in a traditional smoking kiln. The oak

is locally sourced in their neighbouring heritage town of Lismore. This smoked cheese is available as a delicious full wheel or in pre-packed wedges. All of their cheeses are also available with a full range of herbs and spices. Knockanore Cheese is free from artificial flavouring and preservatives and in 2011 Knockanore Farmhouse Cheese brought home gold from the Irish and World Cheese Awards.

John Kelly Ltd. Wins Opel Customer Excellence Award

he recipients of Opel Ireland’s 2015 Customer Excellence Awards have been announced, with John Kelly Ltd. in Waterford receiving an award for outstanding customer service. “While the Motoring Industry continues to witness a surge in sales John Kelly Opel has remained focused on delivering excellent customer service, which is of paramount importance to our business.” said Dave Sheeran, Managing Director Opel Ireland. The Opel Customer Excellence Programme, now in its third year, is based on independent feedback from customers and is awarded to the top retailers who deliver the highest standard of service in sales and after-sales, across a 12-month period, January to December of 2014. Margaret Hynes from John Kelly Opel commented; “It is a tremendous honour to receive this award, and particu-

larly gratifying that the win is as a result of feedback from our customers. This accolade is testament to the tireless efforts of our talented team at John Kelly’s who include Martin Doyle, Margaret Hynes, Derek Browne, Derek Ryan, Seamus Flynn, Billy O Rourke , Barry Kent , Adrian Jackman, Michelle Quilty, &Tadgh Hayes. As part of the company’s dedication to creating the

best-possible customer experience, Opel offers a threeday test drive programme, called Experience Opel, designed to allow customers to truly experience owning Opel. For more information visit www.johnkellyopel.com or drop in and talk to a member of the team. Later this year, John Kelly Opel will welcome the allnew KARL, a compact but spacious five door economi-

cal car, which will be powered by the latest generation one-litre petrol engine. Meanwhile Opel will launch Internet connectivity, emergency assistance services and a host of vehicle diagnostic service with Opel OnStar. This will arrive in Opel’s new passenger cars from September. In the same month, the New Astra will make its global debut and promises to deliver on stunning design, everyday value and superior engineering, which is synonymous with German cars. About John Kelly (Waterford) Ltd. John Kelly (Waterford) Ltd. boasts the distinction of being Ireland’s first commercial garage. The business was established as Pearse Motor Works in 1900. The fouder, W.F. Pearse, became Ireland’s best-known mechanic and he is also credited with importing the first ever car into the country. When the company hit upon hard times during

the First World War, a local businessman, John Kelly took over. John Kelly (Waterford) Ltd. was founded in 1 9 2 8

and expanded rapidly in the ensuing years. Kelly’s was appointed main Opel dealer for Waterford City in 1979. This was a partnership that would be instrumental in the future growth and development of the company in Waterford and surround areas. The company continues to go from strength to strength from its headquarters on the Cork Road in Waterford City. Over the years, the company has won many awards from Opel for their customer sales and service satisfaction and has also been credited as a “Center for Excellence” within the Opel Service Repairs division, awarded to them by Opel Ireland.
