DEAL MAKER: John Halligan and members of the Independent Alliance enter Leinster House during talks to form a government

Waterford Independent TD JOHN HALLIGAN has secured the provision of a badly-needed second cath lab at University Hospital Waterford, along with funding to extend the existing cath lab hours while the build takes place. Here Deputy Halligan writes about how he finally delivered this ‘make or break’ issue during marathon negotiations over the past 10 weeks.

And another thing . . .

NOW, we all know Waterford can be a funny place at the best of times. But throw in a bit of rare good weather and the whole place seems to go completely bonkers.

There I was last Friday strolling up Ballybricken on my way to Kervicks to enjoy a few early evening pints.

My attention was drawn to a half-naked gentleman striding out of Alfie’s. Bare chested and tattooed, the wizened warrior walked across the road with the confidence and strut of a model sashaying down the catwalk at Milan Fashion Week, a few merry stumbles aside.

As I followed his progress my gaze shifted to a flash of white in the corner of my eye.

An unmanned coupé was slowly lolling it’s way backwards down the road before gently crashing into the band stand.

A few lads having a smoke looked on helplessly (although they didn’t seem all that bothered) as the car made its uncertain progress before shuddering to a halt. Just then, a young woman emerged out of somewhere with her hands over her mouth, muttering something that sounded a bit like ‘Sweet mucking Jesus’.

Lecturers to ballot on strike action THE BALLYBRICKEN BANDSTAND: Scene of some recent Summer madness

She clambered, high heels and all, into the car and drove it the short distance back to the parking space. Got out and calmly said, as if by way of explanation: “Ye’d need a pint after that”, before tottering inside the nearest pub to do just that.

The lads just laughed and threw their eyes up to heaven. No harm done, and you couldn’t argue with the logic. A pint inside the safety of a cosy bar seemed a very sensible option with all that sunny madness in the air.

A warm Waterford welcome for Writers last Weekend

PROPERTY MATTERS &250$& ),1/$<

Get your dream home... as quickly as possible LAST week I gave readers tips on how to sell your home quickly for the best possible price — but what if you’re in the other boat?

How do you ensure you have the best chance of securing a home in the current market?

Firstly you have to be organised; it’s quite likely that the first thing you’ll have to do is to work out what your budget is - then visit your bank manager and get a mortgage. Once you have approval in principle, you can get out there are see what’s available.

At this point it’s important to think ahead and act like you’ve already found the perfect home within your budget.

Next, you’ll need a solicitor to represent you and a surveyor to check the home. Just because you haven’t found your perfect home quite yet doesn’t mean you can’t go about securing the services of a good solicitor and surveyor.

Like every service it pays to shop around.

I’ve seen property sales on similar homes take anything from four weeks to six months

based upon the types of solicitor and buyer involved.

So now you have everything ready to go, one of two things are likely yo happen — you’ll see the perfect house on the market or the right house won’t be available for sale.

Either way, you should talk to a trusted local auctioneer.

Advise them you are in the market and discuss the properties they have now (or coming available in the future).

It’s a very good idea to let them know how organised and ready you are to buy as it makes you stand out in the crowd and will have them working hard on your behalf to either find you the right property or suggest you as a good purchaser to a vendor when there’s plenty of interest in a home.

When there’s a large amount of interest in a property and not a huge difference in bids the quality of purchaser can make a huge difference in the vendor taking one offer or another. *Cormac Finlay is an auctioneer with Liberty Blue Estate Agents

Movie of the week

X-Men Apocalypse

Behind the original Georgian features of the Step House Hotel are 20 luxurious bedrooms, designed in a sweeping curve to create panoramic views of rolling countryside as it rises to meet Mount Leinster. Step inside and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find Irish art, elegant furniture, free internet access, fantastic dining options and a great nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sleep.

Worshiped as a god since the dawn of civilization, the immortal Apocalypse (Oscar Isaac) becomes the first and most powerful mutant. Awakening after thousands of years, he recruits the disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender) and other mutants to create a new world order. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Professor X (James McAvoy) and Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) lead a team of young X-Men to stop their seemingly invincible nemesis from destroying mankind.

Book of the week

This Must be the Place, by Maggie Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Farrell Daniel Sullivan has a complicated life. A New Yorker living in the Irish countryside, he has children he never sees in California, a father he loathes in Brooklyn and a wife, Claudette, who is a reclusive ex-film star given to shooting at anyone who ventures up their driveway. He is also about to find out something about a woman he lost touch with 20 years ago, and this discovery will send him off-course, far away from wife and home.

App of the week

Sea Quest Hero Sea Hero Quest is the result of a partnership between two universities, Deutsche Telekom Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Research UK and game developer Glitchers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to produce an app that can actually aid dementia research by being played.The app uses the spatial awareness and movement of players, turning it into data that can then be used to analyse how the brain deals with these tasks â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both of which are affected by dementia. Just a couple of minutes of playing time can equal hours worth of valuable research.
