TRAVEL CHECK LIST DR DAVID BUCKLEY Are you planning a holiday this summer? Now is the time to prepare. Below is a list if things you could check before you go, especially if you are planning a longer trip or a trip to an exotic destination. However, even a short weekend away could be spoiled by not taking some sensible precautions.

Cut out this page and keep it with your passport to remind you what you need to do before you travel.

• Do you need a VISA? • When does your PASSPORT expire?

• Are your CHILDREN on your passport?

• Do you need your children’s BIRTH CERTIFICATES? • Do you need VACCINATIONS or MALARIA TABLETS? • Have you enough INSECT REPELLENT? (e.g. ‘’Jungle Formula’’) • Don’t forget your SUNBLOCK, SUNGLASSES, and a WIDE BRIMMED HAT • How about a good GUIDE BOOK? • Have you LOCAL CURRENCY? • Remember to pack you usual MEDICATIONS in your hand luggage • Secure your HOUSE and give a neighbour a set of keys • Do you have TRAVEL INSURANCE? • Check your DEPARTURE TIME and ITINERARY. Plan to be in the airport at least 2 hours before departure time

• Pack some tablets for DIARRHOEA, NAUSEA and some PAIN KILLERS • SCAN or PHOTOGRAPH your passport, health insurance certificate and airline tickets and email it to yourself so you can get a copy anywhere in the world by logging into your account ALWAYS PHOTCOPY YOUR PASSPORT, YOUR TRAVEL INSURANCE FORMS AND YOUR RETURN AIR TICKET BEFORE YOU LEAVE. CARRY THEM SEPARATELY IN CASE YOUR ORIGINALS ARE LOST OR STOLEN. The Ashe Street Clinic, Tralee, provides a comprehensive Travel Advice and Vaccination Clinic for those traveling to more exotic destinations that may require travel vaccines and/or anti-malarial advice (e.g. anywhere outside Europe, North America, Australia or New Zealand).

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS: AUTHENTICATING DOCUMENTS Question We are a family planning to move from Ireland to live in Italy. Will Italian authorities accept our Irish birth certificates?

Answer When you are abroad, you may need to use Irish documents, for example, a birth certificate, either for personal or business reasons. Governments and organisations sometimes require that public documents issued in other countries be authenticated or apostilled and translated before they can be accepted. Authenticating a document means verifying that a signature, seal or stamp on a document is genuine. An apostille stamp is an international certification.

Since 16 February 2019, EU citizens moving to another EU country no longer need to get an apostille stamp to prove that their public documents are authentic. This means that public documents such as birth, death, marriage and civil partnership certificates issued in Ireland by the General Register Office (GRO) and the Certificate of Freedom to Marry issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade are accepted by authorities in other EU member states as authentic.

The EU Regulation also removes the obligation for citizens to provide a translation of their public document. If the public document is not in one of the official languages of the EU country requesting the document, citizens can ask for a Multilingual Standard Form, available in all EU languages, from the authorities of the EU country which issued the public document. Multilingual Standard Forms are now available on request from the GRO for birth, death, marriage, adoption and civil partnership certificates.

For more information, visit gro.ie.

Chamber issues call to shop local as O’Connors Toyshop and Radar Sports announce their Onstreet Closure “Heartbreaking to see this after

over 40 years and 2 generations in business. We want to wish all the best to the O’Connor family.

Its frustrating and maddening to see another business close, in a week that also saw Radar Sports announce their closure of their store in Ivy Terrace (but continuing with a strong online shop presence !”)

We know shopping is changing, and we all speak about how online is taking over. But please, remember that shops just like these are local - employing local staff & supporting local families. If you think shopping online is saving you, remember who’s losing out!

If you don’t already understand the importance of shopping local... then perhaps now you might! We ask everyone to #ShopLocal We urge any business owner in difficulty to contact us, we may not be able to help with all the issues, but we can certainly try KEN ken@tralee.ie AIDAN president@tralee.ie

CBS Primary Tralee marks 60 years with construction of two-storey extension CBS Primary Tralee is set to undergo a major transformation after Easter when work commences on the construction of a twostorey building containing four new classrooms, a special educational needs unit and administration area.

The project at one of Tralee’s most famous landmarks will be completed by the summer of 2020 when pupils and teachers entering the new extension can look forward to the most modern teaching and learning environment available.

A follow-up phase of development will see the removal of the prefab classrooms which will be replace by a new fenced play area at the rear of the school where these classrooms are currently located.

The Principal of CBS Primary Tralee, Denis Coleman, said: “The safety of our children and staff is our number one priority. The school’s original layout is from the 1950s - a time when the majority of children made their way to school on foot or on their bike, 14

without their parents. The world of 60 years ago was far less complicated and the yard, and school, were readily accessible to all. When the work is complete, our school will be far more secure where visitors will be welcomed at the new main entrance by our school secretary and where the, now-enclosed, yard will be more safe and secure than ever before.”

The building works will also facilitate the upgrade of our school’s ICT capabilities which will in turn enable staff and children to increase the integration of technology into the teaching and learning throughout the school.

CBS Primary Tralee first opened its doors in 1959 and one of the teachers from school’s early years, Mícheál Hayes, turned the sod on the development in the company of four pupils from the Junior Infants’ classes. They were joined by Ann Laide, whose father was involved in building the school in the 1950s.

The Chairman of the Board of Management, Noel Burke, said: “We delighted that Friday 12th April 2019

the building project has such a strong link with the local area especially as we are celebrating the 60th anniversary of the opening of the school which was built by a local construction firm T. O’Mahony & Co in 1959. This time around, the consultants for the project are a Tralee-based company, MRG while the lead architect, Liam Waldron, is both a past pupil and a parent of a past pupil The main contractor is Evans and Kelliher Ltd from Castlemaine and many of the sub-contractors will be from the locality ensuring that there will be a direct benefit to the

local economy.”

Preliminary building works have already commenced at the front of the school while children, teachers and parents have already been familiarised with the new drop-off and collection procedures.

During construction, a large part of the school will be boarded up and the new main entrance to the school will be via the glass doors looking onto Brewery Road.

For more information about the development at CBS Primary Tralee, please contact Denis Coleman on 0667124029 or email principal@ cbsprimarytralee.com.

Beauty

HELLO MY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS I HOPE YOU’RE ALL HAVING AN AMAZING WEEK! I’m going to Thailand in 2 weeks and in Thailand there are a lot of markets - a lot of these that sell counterfeit makeup!

Sometimes these stalls can be selling makeup brushes or products at a quarter of the usual retail price, which you may think ‘great i’m getting a bargain’ - but you’re not.

Counterfeit makeup is very dangerous - it is manufactured in non sanitary conditions and has been reported to contain high levels of bacteria. It can also contain harmful ingredients that is illegal to use in makeup sold in a store that is harmful to your health.

Reactions from using fake makeup products can include acne, psoriasis, serious skin rashes and eye infections.

These reactions also take a few days to appear so you may not even think it was the fake product you used.

I know the temptation to buy these products, you think ‘sure what harm can a lipstick/lashes/makeup brush do’ I was surrounded by them in Thailand last time, I could have got the most amazing looking fake palettes, lashes and brushes for my kit as a Makeup

Artist(apparently that’s what some Artists do). But putting those unknown chemicals and bacteria near my face, or a clients’ is a huge no no for me!

You don’t have to spend 50 euro on a Chanel foundation if that’s out of your budget, but rather than buying a fake for a tenner, get a pharmacy dupe.

Brands like L’Oreal, Revlon, Rimmel, Floramar, Note Cosmetics and more do really high quality products for low prices with ingredients that won’t harm you.

So next time you’re at a stall that sells makeup - if it’s being sold at a stall it’s not real. Remember the points I made today, it’s not worth it, it harms your skin, it’s not sanitary, WALK AWAY! That’s what I had to tell myself over and over again in Thailand. Yes it’s annoying that they’re selling Mac lipstick for 5 euro, but it’s not real, not good for you and will harm your skin!

FITNESS!

HELLO MY STRONG FRIENDS, I hope you’re all having a great week.

Recently I have been taking more and more notice of people’s(especially women’s) ideas of what is “good for you” and “bad for you”. And it seems many women are still in the mind frame that you need to do lots of cardio, eat no carbs, stop eating after 7pm and all this other nonsense in order to lose weight. As well as marking every single food as “good” or “bad”.

Now especially, is the time of year where people lean towards crash/fad diets as it’s coming up to Christmas. What happens then is during and after Christmas, they put all the weight back on, trust me.

No no no noooooo!!!!!

Go to any decent personal trainer or gym instructor and they will tell you...

1. Your body needs carbohydrates for energy.

2. Strength training burns more calories for longer.

3. You do not have to eat 6 small meals a day all before 7pm to be ‘healthy’.

And yes, I’m no gym goddess. But I have been training properly and eating according to my lifestyle, my goals and my preferences for over a year now and the difference is insane.

The real difference between getting fast results by doing a crash diet or getting long term slow and steady results by training and getting your nutrition right is this…

If you use a crash diet, yeah you’ll lose weight quickly, but it’s not sustainable so you end up putting it all if not more back on very quickly.

With proper training and nutrition - that means eating foods that are not only nutrient dense, but foods that you also enjoy eating, your body doesn’t feel deprived or lack energy so if you happen to go on a night out at the weekend or go on a holiday for a week, yeah you might be up a pound or two, but that’s normally just water weight that comes off really quickly when you go back to your regular training and nutrition that you can stick to.

My main point is… don’t starve yourself, don’t deprive yourself of good foods that you think are “bad” no food is “bad” on its own. Some foods are more calorie dense than others yes, and over consumption of those foods is not recommended. But you don’t have to eat chicken broccoli and rice all day every day to see results.

Preheat oven to 160c. Place ham in large roasting pan. Pour apple juice over ham. Cover ham completely with parchment paper, then cover ham and roasting pan completely with heavy-duty foil, sealing tightly at edges of pan.

Drizzle honey evenly over. Bake until ham is well glazed, spooning any mustard and sugar glaze that slides into roasting pan back over ham, about 30 minutes.

TORQUING CARS! FORD LAUNCHES NEW KEYLESS FOB TO COMBAT RELAY ATTACKS

The new key fob enters a sleep mode after 40 seconds without movement, after which it will not respond to hacking attempts Ford has launched an aftermarket key fob upgrade that makes its keyless entry models far less vulnerable to theft via relay attack.The new fob is equipped with a motion sensor that detects when the key has been stationary for more than 40 seconds.Once the 40-second time period passes without movement, the key fob enters a sleep mode and will not respond to any hacking attempts, including relay attacks where thieves use a special device to boost the signal between a key inside a house and a car outside, so they can unlock it and start its engine.Ford’s keyless fobs are designed to only work within a two-metre radius of the car. The new key will reactivate as soon as it detects motion again and will unlock the car as soon as the owner takes it into this two-metre vicinity.The upgraded fob now comes as standard with all new Fiesta and Focus models. In addition, existing owners of these models can purchase the key as an aftermarket upgrade.

BMW 1 SERIES SPIED AT THE NURBURGRING IN M135I GUISE

A lightly camouflaged M-Sport edition of the third-generation BMW 1 Series has been caught on camera lapping the Nurburgring BMW’s new Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf rival has received a substantial rethink over the outgoing model. Following in the footsteps of its competitors, the mark-three 1 Series hatch has ditched its rear-wheel-drive layout in favour of a new front-wheeldrive platform, borrowed from the latest MINI. This lightly camouflaged M135i mule is our latest glimpse of the model. The rangetopping performance-focussed flagship will use BMW’s 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol, with 302bhp and 450Nm of torque. It will feed its power through an eight-speed automatic gearbox to an all-wheel-drive system, making it a direct competitor for models such as the Volkswagen Golf R, Mercedes-AMG A 45 and Ford Focus RS. Other revisions for the M135i include a wider track, improved steering response, a more rigid body shell (with a ‘boomerang’ rear strut), a torque-vectoring limited-slip differential and a revised stability control system, all of which BMW claims will benefit body control and ride quality. Buyers can also spec sport springs and dampers across the new 1 Series range.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles to pay Tesla “hundreds of millions” of euros to share fleet CO2 emissions and meet tough EU targets Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) is to pay Tesla “hundreds of millions” of euros to enable Tesla’s electric cars to count as part of FCA’s “pool” of vehicles for the purpose of CO2 emission measurement, thereby allowing FCA to meet stringent EU emission targets.

Under the deal, first reported by the Financial Times, the Tesla Model 3, S and X will become part of FCA’s vehicle fleet for the purposes of counting carbon dioxide emissions, enabling FCA to more easily meet EU targets.European Union rules will require carmakers to post average CO2 emissions of 95g/km across all the cars they sell by 2020 and 2021. Cars from FCA, which owns Fiat and Alfa Romeo, as well as Ferrari, Maserati and Jeep, emitted 123g/km of CO2 on average last year, according to data cited by the Financial Times, meaning the 95g/km target is likely to be hard to hit within a year or two.Carmakers who do not meet the fleet average targets will have to pay fines of €95 (roughly £82) for every g/km of CO2 over the 95g/km target each car they sell emits. Analysts cited by the Financial Times claim FCA could face fines of more than €2 billion by 2021 if the company’s fleet CO2 emissions aren’t reduced.

EU rules permit companies to “pool” their emissions with internal brands, meaning Volkswagen can share fleet-average emissions with SEAT, Skoda and Audi, and PSA brands (Peugeot, Citroenand Vauxhall) can do similarly. But external pools – where one company teams up with another – are also permitted, and the FCA-Tesla deal is believed to be the first of its kind.

LAUGHTER ....THE BEST MEDICINE !

FLYING ACROSS THE COUNTRY IN AIR FORCE ONE, THE PRESIDENT JOKES WITH HIS STAFF. “I’m thinking about tossing a $100 bill out the window and making someone very happy.”

A White House aide comments, “Why don’t you throw twenty $100 bills out the window and make twenty people happy?”

Another staffer jokes, “Why don’t you throw a hundred $100 bills out the window and make a hundred people happy?”

A member of the plane staff, wanting to get in on the act, chimes in and says, “Why don’t you throw yourself out the window and make half the country happy?”

THREE GUYS ARE STAYING ON THE TOP FLOOR OF A 600 STORY HOTEL.

They return from a party one night and discover that the elevator is broken, so they have to take the stairs to the 600th floor.

They decide that in order to pass the time each of them would tell a story.

For the first 200 floors, someone would tell a happy story, then for the next 200 one would tell a scary story, and for the last 200 one would tell a sad story.

This strategy worked well for the first 400 floors. It was now time for the last guy to tell a sad story. For the next 100 floors, the last guy tried his best to come up with a story that would move his friends to tears, when finally, he stopped on the stairs.

“Guys. I have a sad story now.”

The others stop and face him.

“I left the keys in the lobby.”

AN OLD LADY WALKED IN THE BANK AND ASKED ME TO CHECK HER BALANCE So I pushed her over.

FIVE GERMANS IN AN AUDI QUATTRO ARRIVE AT THE ITALIAN BORDER.

The Italian Customs Officer stops them and tells them “It’sa illegala to putta 5 people in a Quattro.”

“Vot do you mean it’s illegal?” asks the German driver.

“Quattro meansa four” replies the Italian official.

“Quattro is just ze name of ze bloody automobile” the German says unbelievingly. “Look at ze dam papers: ze car is designed to karry 5 persons” “You canta pulla thata one on me!” replies the Italian customs officer. “Quattro meansa four. You have five-a people ina your car and you are thereforea breaking tha law.”

The German driver replies angrily, “You idiot! Call your zupervisor over. I vant to speak to someone viz more intelligence!”

“Sorry” responds the Italian officer, “He can’ta come.

He’sa busy witha 2 guys in a Fiat Uno”

A MAN CALLS HOME TO HIS BROTHER WHILE ON A TRIP.

The man asks, “How’s my cat?”

The brother says, “Right after you left, the cat got out, ran into the street and was killed by a passing car.”

The man says, “that’s a hard way to break that news to me. I wish you had prepared me for it instead of just blurting it out like that.”

The brother asks, “What would you have wanted me to say?”

coffee morning

The man replies, “Well you could have space it a little at a time. The first day I call and you tell me “the cat’s on the roof and we can’t get her down.” The next day, I call and you say “she’s still up there and won’t eat.”

The third day I call and you tell me the cat died on the roof.”

The man then asks “By the way, hows mom.”

The brother says, “Mom’s on the roof and we can’t get her down.”

TALKING SPORT WITH THE TRALEE ADVERTISER EVERYTHING’S COMING UP ROSES!

with “The Voice” Pat Harnett

FAI NATIONAl P.R.O. OF THE YEAR CORK MAN CELEBRATE CIRCUIT WIN WITH MILK! Firstly well done to everyone involved in the Kerry Motor Club and all the marshals who worked so hard to ensure the Rose Hotel Circuit of Kerry Rally 2019 was such a great success with the reception for the overseas crews and the RALLYTOWN event in the town centre on Saturday proving to be a great success.

The work of the voluntary committee and indeed all the volunteers needs to be recognised and is something that I will come back in a forthcoming edition.

The day was perfect for the crew who tackled the 3 stages – Knights Mountain, Headley’s Bridge and Mount Eagle 3 three times.

In the end it was Midleton man Darragh O’Riordan who took the win in his impressive Ford Fiesta WRC. He was more than a minute clear of Pat O’Connell in the Mitsubishi Lancer. Ed Synan and Padraig Egan were both in Subaru’s and were challenging before they both went out.

From a Kerry point of view Mike Quinn and Tony Healy were showing good pace in their new WRC Subaru Impreza S11. After the nine stages Faha co-driver Shane Buckley was the top Kerry competitor as he called the notes for Welshman Tomas Davies.The best Kerry crew were Ed Murphy and Keith McCarthy driving another Escort, they finished ninth overall in their Escort.

Kerry Motor Club honours went to Tim Enright and Stephen Buckley in another Escort while the Killarney and District Motor Club honours went to Charlie and Johnny Hickey who were 12thin another Escort.

Tom Relihan and Maurice McElligott are the provisional leaders of the Moriarty’s Centra Kingdom of Kerry Rally Championship after winning class 13 in their Ford Escort.

It was a great day for many of the Kerry crews especially the O’Rourke family as Jamie who was competing in his first rally alongside his uncle Paddy. They took home the James O’Rourke Memorial Trophy, named after

TRALEE ADVERTISER

Jamie’s father.

PJ O’Dowd showed the spirit of rallying when he donated his spare gearbox to the Limerick dup of Maurice and Stephen Meskell and they went on to win the Historic section in the car prepared by local mechanic Brendan Brosnan. Tralee man O’Dowd when on to take third in his Talbot Sunbeam with John Young on the notes. The Junior section was won by Donagh Crowley and Denis Nagle in their Toyota Starlet.

Once again one of the highlights of this rally was the number of overseas crews and visitors that were in Tralee for the weekend bringing a great early season economic boost to the town.

And the milk in the title – for the first time in Ireland the Indy 500 tradition of the winner drinking milk was seen after a rally in this country thanks to the sponsorship of Ballymac Dairies.

Big Weekend for Mossie: Trabert’s Mossie Costello will make his rally debut this weekend in Saturday’s Moonraker Rally which is based in Ballyvourney.

LEAGUE OF IRELAND CORNER: It was another great weekend for the Kerry 15’s and 17’s who both recorded very impressive wins. All four Kerry sides were involved in games against Limerick. The 15’s were 5-2 winners in Limerick with the 17’s also winning away 2-1. The 13’s went down at Mounthawk Park as did the 19’s but both management and squads are working hard.

This weekend the 13’s and 15’s are at home to Galway United on Saturday with the 17’s at home to Cork on Sunday and the 19’s away to the same opposition.

COUNTY CLEAN-UP: All cubs have the County CleanUp in their notes. It is great to see these volunteers, who are busy with their club issues, giving up their time for the good of the community. This is a vital day in enhancing the look of our community and indeed in an ideal world this would not be needed.

But it is and we thank all those who take part in the 2019 County Clean-Up day.

AT THE TRACK:

This Friday night at the Kingdom Greyhound Track it’s the final of the John and Mary Killeacle Dowling Memorial stake, the final of the Kasko Mealettes A6 Stake, the final of the Ballymac Kennels Coursing bred 325 yards plus the final of the Moyvane Community Sports Hall A2 stake which is the feature of their benefit night. Also on Friday night is the first round heats of the KGOBA A6 confined stake.

The track is currently taking entries for the Lee Strand A3 confined 550 yds starting in Fri Apr 19th. Please call racing office on 061 448057.

They were 0-05 to 0-01up at the break and added further point from Jackie Horgan before a Carlow mini-comeback. This was short lived and points from Diggin and Laura Collins saw Kerry secure their Division 2 status. This was a just reward for the girls hard work all season and they will now go into the Championship with lots of confidence.
