€500,000 boost for our outdoor dining WHILE there is no guarantee of sunshine on the Sunny South East as we move into the autumn/winter season, revellers will nonetheless be thrilled to hear that they will still be able to dine outdoors in style and comfort when the summer ends. Waterford has been granted almost €500,000 for the permanent development of outdoor dining facilities in two locations, under Fáilte Ireland’s Outdoor Dining Enhancement Scheme. Waterford City Trail (Bailey’s New Street to O’Connell Street/ John Street) has been granted a total of €354,919; while Grattan Square, Dungarvan has been approved for funding of €151,774. Commenting on the boon for the region, Michael Quinn, Director of Economic Development, Waterford City and County Council, said that the funding will assist local businesses in extending their outdoor dining offers all year round. “The addition of accessible

outdoor seating and heating will provide a permanency to outdoor dining in Waterford city and Dungarvan, and provide more options to locals and visitors. “Waterford City and County Council is working closely with local businesses in the roll-out of the outdoor infrastructure as we build on consolidating Waterford’s outdoor dining offering right throughout the year.” Meanwhile, Lisa Fitzgerald, proprietor of The Italian Bakery and The Ice Cream Place said, “In the main, we have enjoyed a relatively successful summer of outdoor dining in Waterford. However, as we come into the autumn, we will be in position to provide our customers with a more comfortable outdoor dining experience.” Fáilte Ireland’s Outdoor Dining Enhancement Scheme opened for applications in March 2021 and comprised two parts.

04 | news in brief Closure order A WATERFORD food business was among five premises served with closure orders by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) last month. Johnny’s Grub Hub, located in Pickardstown in Tramore, was served a closure order under the FSAI Act, 1998, after inspectors found cobwebs on the ceiling and “a layer of dirt” on the floor the food preparation and cooking area, adjacent to the food stall. Inspectors said protective clothing for staff was stained and stored “unprotected in the open yard area” and that there were also stains found on the refrigerator and food preparation surfaces.

Top marks for Alan as he All smoky builds accounting career

Off the scale THE State planning watchdog has warned a new draft development plan by Waterford City and County Council proposes to zone enough land for 10,000 new homes over the next seven years – more than double the expected demand. The Office of the Planning Regulator said the draft plan runs the risk of development taking place which is not matched by appropriate infrastructure or is “out of scale” for its location. It estimated just 4,800 new houses will be needed in Waterford over the period of the plan which runs from 2022 to 2028.

A WATERFORD man, whose post-Leaving Certificate working life began on local construction sites, has gone on to gain one of the top marks in the country for an accounting programme. Alan Fitzsimons (24), from Kilmacthomas, is building a career in accountancy thanks to the Accounting Technicians Ireland (ATI) Diploma. The two-year programme is available in over 50 colleges across Ireland. Alan first took a summer job in the building

trade on leaving school in 2015. “When I finished secondary school aged 18 I felt further education was not for me at that time,” said Alan. He stayed on the sites for three years before beginning the Diploma at Dungarvan College. It is also available through Waterford College of Further Education. He then moved straight to year two of the BA Honours Degree in Accountancy at Waterford Institute of

Technology and never looked back. “Accounting Technicians Ireland provides opportunities for people of any age to return to education. “I am thrilled to know now that I made the right decision. After completing the Diploma, I was accepted straight into year two of the BA Honours Degree,” said a delighted Alan. www. accountingtechniciansireland. ie

€500k for outdoor dining

Continued from previous page Local Authorities were invited to apply to Fáilte Ireland for funding under Part Two — Local Authority Weatherproofing & Outdoor Dining Enhancement Scheme — to develop streets and public spaces to facilitate year-round weather-proofed outdoor dining in urban tourism centres. A total of 38 locations are set to benefit under the Scheme with almost €9m allocated. Paul Kelly, CEO of Fáilte Ireland, said the scheme will help aid the recovery of the tourism sector. “This Scheme supports resilience and survival in the short term and the recovery of the tourism sector in the long-term.” Green Party local representative for Dungarvan, Críostóir Ó Faoláin added: “The provision of outdoor dining space in Grattan Square, Dungarvan over the summer has been a huge success, providing a much-needed lifeline to businesses struggling to survive the pandemic. This additional funding will help keep customers warm and sheltered as they dine outdoors year-round.”

All of County Waterford is to become a low-smoke zone under new regulations banning the sale of smoky coal. From this time next year, only low-smoke coal and coal-based nuggets will be permitted to be sold. It is a nationwide extension of the rules that already apply in 42 towns and cities across the country. The ban was first introduced to Waterford City in 2011 and Tramore in September. By 2025, the smoke content of such fuels must drop by half in a further move to dissuade solid fuel use and improve air quality. Tighter regulations will also apply to wood fuels within the year, requiring moisture content to be reduced to cut down on smoke and particulate matter, with a further reduction to apply from 2025. No changes have been made yet to regulations on the cutting, burning or sale of sod peat, however. “In order to accommodate those with rights to harvest sod peat, no ban on its burning will be introduced,” the Department of the Environment said. “However, a regulatory regime to reduce its harm in more urbanised areas is under examination.” A spokesperson said a ban on selling peat for use by

people other than those with cutting rights was not ruled out. “A number of options are still being considered to ensure a reduction in the use of sod peat in urban areas, which contributes to poor air quality in such areas. “Such options may include a ban on the sale of peat. However, no final decision has been made in this regard.” This was the most contentious part of the proposed changes to solid fuel regulations when they went to public consultation earlier this year. Despite growing research showing particulate matter from smoky fuels to be the main cause of air pollution in the country’s smaller towns, and the premature deaths of 1,300 people a year in Ireland from smoky air, some rural TDs and campaigners were strongly opposed to any attempt to restrict peat. Environment Minister Eamon Ryan announced the new regulations in time for International Clean Air Day, which aims to stimulate action on air pollution. “When this Government was formed, we gave a commitment to tackle air pollution caused by domestic solid fuel burning, and we remain committed to doing so,” he said.

Thousands take part in clean-ups More than 1,500 Waterford volunteers took part in cleanups across over 100 locations in the county as part of the National Spring Clean. This year, the National Spring Clean ran from April to the end of August meaning that Spring Clean 21 is Ireland’s longest running and largest anti-litter campaign to date. “This year we had the longest and biggest National Spring Clean campaign ever and we want to thank all the groups and individuals around Ireland who joined us. While waiting for Spring

Clean 2022, there are several ways in which communities and individuals around Ireland can keep getting involved and do their bit for our environment,” National Spring Clean Manager, Emlyn Cullen said. “For example, we encourage people to do a #2minutestreetclean every time they are out and about. Moreover, we are joining An Taisce’s Clean Coasts Programme for the Big Beach Clean and we are inviting volunteers to register and tackle marine litter at its source.”

Soft plastics can be put in recycling bin

All clean plastic packaging waste including soft plastic can now be placed in the county’s household recycling bins. Soft packaging such as wrappers, plastic bags and bubble wrap have been added to the household recycling list provided they are clean, dry and loose. Over the last year, a number of new markets specifically handling soft plastics have emerged and Irish plastic can now be exported to these facilities for recycling. Waste prevention co-ordinator at MyWaste, a Government guide for the public on waste, Pauline McDonagh, explained that soft plastics are anything that can be scrunched in your hand. “A bag that granola comes in, that pasta comes in, that’s the type of plastic we refer to as soft plastic,” she said. “The major change we’re announcing today is that all those soft plastics along with

those rigid plastics should be placed in the recycling bin. She said to recycle properly all items placed into the recycling bin must be clean, dry and loose. “Cling film should be balled into a small ball, but it may be dirty, particularly if it has covered food so if it’s dirty, please don’t put it into your recycling bin that needs to go into general waste,” she said. She said over €10m has been invested into Ireland’s recycling facilities over the last number of years. “This means that a lot of these facilities have installed optical sorting equipment which can identify different plastics - this is a huge investment in technology by the waste management sector.” Minister of State for the Circular Economy, Ossian Smyth TD, said soft plastic can be placed in the household recycling bin along with “rigid” plastic.

“Currently in Ireland we recycle less than a third of all plastic packaging waste. We have committed to increasing our plastic packaging recycling figure to 50% by 2025 and 55% by 2030. “The announcement is a significant step towards achieving these targets,” said Minister Smyth. The coordinator of environmental group, Voice, has welcomed the move, but said the public needs to continue to pressure politicians, retailers and producers to reduce the amount of plastic packaging. Mindy O’Brien said Voice wants to see more investment in infrastructure for reuse and refill, particularly at home, when so much waste is sent abroad. “A lot of our recycling is shipped abroad and I know there are efforts afoot to try to get recycling facilities so we can recycle the material here, but right now we are not,” Ms O’Brien said.

IMAGINING Arts was about all we could do over the last 18 months or so, but now we need imagine no more. Celebrating its 20th year, the Imagine Arts Festival will host a full hybrid program of online and live indoor and outdoor events at venues across the City from October 15th to 24th 2021. The festival showcases a multi-disciplinary range of arts events which also includes Waterford Writers Weekend — some of the big-name authors lined up include

Waterford native and one of 2021’s most celebrated debuts, Megan Nolan who will read from Acts of Desperation and speak about the process of writing her second novel. The festival’s visual art listing will feature an exhibition by renowned artist John Shinnors at Goma Gallery from October 15th. Festival Chairperson Jane Keen said: “We are delighted to be back hosting in-person events for their year’s festival; not only have audiences been starved of colour and

New Street Junction has ‘backfired’

CHANGES to the junction between New Street and Barrack Street have “backfired”, becoming yet “another source of traffic chaos in the heart of the city”, local Fianna Councillor Eamon Quinlan has said. He has called for the Council’s roads department to acknowledge that. Mr Quinlan said the road requires an immediate overhaul, with numbers using the area on the increase following the easing of Covid restrictions, schools returning and deteriorating weather. “This junction was changed from its previous layout to

streamline large numbers of vehicles coming in the Cork Road and who wished to access the then proposed large Michael Street Shopping Centre as part of the North Quays development and not have them creating congestion in other parts of the city,” he said. A recent outcry from locals has seen the council come in for sharp criticism in relation to restricting vehicle access around the city centre. It is expected that engineers will re-assess this area following multiple representations and in light of yet more changes to the Michael Street area.

celebration but artists have longed to get back before people and deliver their craft. “The full festival programme is probably our most diverse of the last 20 years and we are reaching out to the people of Waterford and beyond to come and celebrate this with us. It is most certainly a year to celebrate and appreciate the arts.”

Alcohol levels drop by 11%

New Revenue Clearance figures show that alcohol consumption fell by 10.8% amongst the county’s d rinkers in the first half of 2021, compared with the same period last year. This fall is a result of the closure of the hospitality industry, but is also in line with the long-term trend of consumption declining in Ireland, according to Drinks Ireland, which represents drinks manufacturers and suppliers. The figures show that beer and cider sales were the hardest hit, down by 15% and 13% respectively. Typically, around 60% of beer sales and 45% of cider sales are in Ireland’s pubs, restaurants, and hotels. However, consumption was down across all categories, with wine consumption down by 11.5% and spirits down by 0.3%. The new figures confirm that alcohol consumption declined dramatically as a result of Covid-19. The figures from the first half of 2021 are down by 14.1% compared with the same period in 2019, before the pandemic hit.

Waterford named one of the best places to live

AS if we really needed a poll to tell us this, but now at least it’s official: Waterford has been named as one of the Top 20 Best Places to live and is in the running for the overall title, following the publication of the long list of contenders. The town was just one of the 470 locations which were nominated by more than 2,400 people from across the 32 counties for the title of ‘Best Place to Live in Ireland 2021’. The city (one of three selected, the others are Derry and Galway) received 47 nominations in total. The Irish Times ‘Best Place to Live in Ireland’ competition, which is sponsored by Randox Health, began in June when members of the public were invited to nominate their favourite place to live for the award. The Top 5 finalists will be named in mid-September with the overall winner announced on Saturday, September 25th. Each nominated location was considered by a panel of judges on specific criteria, including community spirit, local services and amenities, diversity, transport links, vibrancy of the

local economy, cost of living, safety and of course the unique X factor. In the nomination selected by the judges as best representing everything which is great about Waterford, Micheál O’Foghlu paid tribute to the rich heritage of Ireland’s oldest city, its perfect size, the range of amenities if offers as well as its location as a gateway to the cycling Greenway and the stunning Copper Coast.

While he highlighted the fact that the city has a booming IT and pharma sector, he pointed out that the local property market provides many reasonable options for all types of housing. He also stressed the friendliness of Waterford people and the warm welcome they have for people who come to live there as well as visitors. The panel of five judges – which includes Mayo county architect Simon Wall, Monaghan

GP Dr Illona Duffy, Nationwide TV presenter Zainab Boladale and Irish Times journalist Rosita Boland – spent hours reading and debating the entries, before selecting the Top 20. The Irish Times is currently on the road visiting the 20 locations and in a couple of weeks will announce the Top 5 before revealing the overall winner. The Chair of the Judging Panel, Conor Goodman said the entries from people all over the

island showcased the qualityof-life available here. “While the competition is a celebration of the many great places this country has to offer, it also has a serious mission. We want to highlight good examples of community cohesion and local initiatives, in the face of challenges such as the housing shortage and the public health crisis.” “In Waterford and the other locations named in the Top 20 – our judges saw how pride in, and passion for a place can galvanise a community to action and lead to the forging of a unique and open spirit of creativity and innovation. In each of these locations a strong culture of volunteerism is evident as is a strong interest in sustainability and a desire to create a welcoming environment which caters for people of all ages and backgrounds.” The countrywide competition last took place almost 10 years ago in 2012 in the midst of the financial crisis. On that occasion Westport was selected as the overall Best Place to Live. For information go to www. irishtimes.com/bestplace

Take your hands off our holiday homes, minister

have just returned from staycation with my extended family in a house we rented through Airbnb. It was a lovely house and I would be happy to go back to it but I’m not sure if the Government will let me. The people who own the house, a couple in their seventies, live in it for part of the year, and Housing Minister Darragh O’Brien doesn’t approve of such ‘short-term lets’ He believes Airbnb is luring landlords who would otherwise make their homes available for residential renting. He told the Sunday Business Post that he plans to move against these holiday rentals as part of the Government’s Housing for All policy. Mr O’Brien intends to force short-term letters to seek special planning permission and a licence. If they don’t get ap-

Michael Wolsey

proval it will be illegal for them to list their properties on the Airbnb site or similar platforms such as Vibro and Booking. com. The minister is modelling his plan on one introduced two years ago in the Portuguese capital, Lisbon, which he says has been a success. “It has had an effect already in making sure properties are let out for appropriate periods,” he told the

Business Post. I have no doubt he is right, for I have read several reports about the Lisbon scheme which make the same point. But Mr O’Brien did not claim that the scheme had resulted in any increase in residential renting in Lisbon and nor did any of the reports. A study of the project, presented to the annual conference of Royal Economic Society in London, suggested that the main effect had been to reduce the number of properties for sale in tourist areas of Lisbon. People were unwilling to spend on properties if they could not recoup some of the money by short-term letting;. Prices fell but so did demand; there has been no significant increase in accommodation available for residential renting and no reduction in the rents paid by tenants. This does not bother the Lis-

bon authorities because they weren’t trying to increase residential renting when they imposed the restrictions. They feared the tourist areas of their city were being overwhelmed by visitors and wanted to stem the tide. Other cities, such as Paris and Barcelona, take the same view and are considering similar rules. Maybe a tourist curb is also needed in Dublin, although it is hard to support the argument when looking at the desolation Covid has brought to our capital. It is certainly not true of any other Irish city. They are trying to attract tourists, not limit their numbers. In any case, the argument about tourist numbers is beside the point. Mr O’Brien believes a measure like the Lisbon scheme could increase the availability of properties for residential renting. There is no evidence to support that theory and my per-

sonal experience suggests that the minister is wrong. I have rented Airbnb properties seven or eight times over the past decade, in different parts of Ireland and in France and Spain. All but one - an apartment in Paris - were homes where the owners lived for at least part of the year and which they would not let them on a longterm lease. The owners of the house we recently rented spend their summers with friends in the Canaries. They also vacate their house at other holiday periods, often at Easter and sometimes at Christmas. They might put it on the Airbnb market at other times if they get a good offer, but they expect to spend at least 30 weeks of the year in their home. They would not dream of leasing it for residential accommodation. If they could not rent it to tourists they would leave it empty or maybe, they thought,

sell it and buy somewhere cheaper. Either way, nothing Mr O’Brien does will put this house on the residential rental market. But why should the minister do anything of the sort? What people do with their own homes is no business of his. If, by stringing together shortterm lets , a house owner turns a private dwelling into a small business, then of course the development should be subject to planning permission, but it should be determined by normal planning rules, relating to, say, parking, street signs and frontage, not by some licensing law aimed at Airbnb. If the Government wants to penalise Airbnb landlords to curb tourism or for some reason of its own, it should say so. But, please Minister O’Brien, do not continue to peddle the delusion that this scheme will in any way help to provide Housing for All.

Wonderful Wasps

book of the week

with Justin Ivory

German Wasp (Vespula germanica) feeding on aphid ‘honeydew’ on my car windscreen (Pic: Justin Ivory) The words ‘wonderful’ and ‘wasp’ are not usually associated together particularly on sunny, warm September days as we try to grab the last opportunities for alfresco dining only to have the yellow and black striped brigade turn up to spoil the party. But we need to change our relationship with these wonderful creatures. So let’s take a whistle-stop look at their lifecycle, why they behave the way they do at this time of year and why are they so important. In spring hibernating queen wasps emerge and build small, walnut sized nests in which they lay about 20 eggs. The queen feeds the larvae from these eggs until they mature and become sterile female workers. The queen now concentrates on laying more eggs while the workers feed the new larvae and expand the nest. Nests can end up the size of footballs and contain up to 10,000 wasps! The workers feed their young siblings caterpillars, aphids, ants, and flies. The larvae produce a carbohydrate-rich sugary secretion which the workers feed on. As the season progresses the queen stops laying sterile eggs and turns to producing new queens and males. At this stage the requirement for the workers to feeds young draws to an end. The queen stops releasing the pheromone that drives workers to feed the larvae. So now the workers have lost their access to their sugar fix. With no other duties to occupy them they go in search of all things sweet, which leads to them to our picnics, bbqs, kitchens etc. They are addicts looking for their next fix! While the natural reaction is to swat a wasp that gets too close to us, it actually is the worst thing to do. It causes the wasp to release a pheromone that basically calls out ‘Under attack. Need help.’ And before you know it other wasps have come to help it out. Best advice is to leave something sweet and sugary in a spot for them to feast on. They will be happy and leave you in peace.

the magician Colm Tóibín

Ultimate Hell Week RTE 1, Wednesdays (9.35pm)

candyman Cinemas nationwide

IT was Thomas Mann’s children who called their father ‘The Magician’ because of his ability to create his art. In this fictional biography, Colm Tóibín imagines what may have been going on behind the scenes and gives us quite an intimate portrait of this famous literary figure. Exiled in Switzerland in the early 1930s, Mann grew frantic about the private diaries he had left behind in Germany. As Colm Toibin writes, these diaries, if published, would make clear “who he was and what he dreamed about.” What he dreamed about, mostly, was handsome young men. The story of a man of intense contradictions.

MAKING the British version (SAS Who Dares Wins) of this boot camp torture fest appear like a day out Crufts Dog Show, the Irish Rangers turn the pain and misery levels up to 11. There is a certain schadenfreude watching celebrities vomit on the beaches. But eventually feelings of pity take over before you finally ask yourself, why would someone want to try and board a moving boat in Cork Harbour? Which is exactly what a bunch of illadvised personalities, including, former rugby lad Peter Stringer, dancer Laura Nolan and ‘influencer’ Niamh Cullen get up to in Part 2.

IF you’re old enough to remember the original was a bit lame, then you’re probably not going to fork out €247 for a bucket of popcorn to sit through this remake by Nia DaCosta. This time, it’s the same kind of scares – the ghoulish Candyman appearing in mirrors and toilet cubicles etc – only he has been dragged into the modern age, making it more social commentary than horror. It was a cult classic when it first appeared 30 years ago and this will be a joy to original fans. Whether it earns a legion of new ones, time will tell. Just don’t ever say Candyman five times. Candyman. Candyman. Candyman. Candyman. Candyman.

CINDERALLA is a rebooted romantic musical film based on the fairy tale written and directed by Kay Cannon, Pitch Perfect. The usual gaggle of stars are rolled out, including our very own Pierce Brosnan, with Camila Cabello in the lead role. Essentially, this is what’s known as a Jukebox Musical, featuring several well-known rock and pop hits (Somebody to Love/Material Girl) alongside some originals. And while you can knock it all you like, you will find your feet tapping as you squeeze into a place on the couch with the kids on a Saturday evening.

THE Dublin Festival of History has been organised, for the ninth year running, by Dublin City Council and Dublin City Libraries in partnership with Dublin City Council Culture Company and plays host to a European, UK and domestic line-up of speakers and panels. Among the main topics being covered this year, both online and in person, are women in history, the journey to Irish independence, Germany and the World Wars, Northern Ireland, as well as medieval Dublin. From Monday, 20th September to Sunday, 10th October.

HELPING Transition Year students become more comfortable with personal finance, investing and enterprise, this book is essential for any family struggling to get that TY student out of bed. Developed by the financial analysts in the CFA Society Ireland, the book has been presented to Transition Year teachers in schools across Ireland who can choose to teach it to their students in the next school term, with the overarching aim of increasing the level of financial literacy in Ireland. Pictured is CFA Director Noel Friel, author Susan Hayes-Culleton and Deputy Principal of Sutton Park School, Dublin, David Bane.

WAIT, didn’t we just . . . yes, we did just feature a new album by Lana Del Rey, her seventh studio album, Chemtrails over the Country Club, released in March. So this is . . . yes, her eighth studio album and her second in 2021. So is she . . . trying to make us all feel teeny and bad and useless? Probably, but that’s why she can make albums about country clubs in the first place, while the rest of us make do with bingo halls. Anyway, once the inferiority complex has subsided, check this out. As always, it’s blooody good. Grrr.

DARE we say it? The dread of the back to school dinners? Look, they’re back, like it or not, but with a little help from Siucra, easy dinners are at hand which can be served up in just 30 minutes . . . or thereabouts. To start you off with something not so laborious, we can point you towards a classic fave with the kids, Siúcra‘s Back-to-School Dinner Burritos, which are guaranteed to keep everyone happy and excited for meal times. And yes, you do need to add the sugar, it’s an integral part of the process.

THE Peter McVerry Trust, the national housing and homelessness charity, will return to physical fundraising events with their Wexford Cycle 2021 on Saturday 18th September. The charity is this year running a hybrid event, where participants will have the option to complete the traditional route from the campus of University City Dublin to Wexford town, or take on a virtual cycle on the same date. For those taking on the traditional event there are two route options – 100km or 135km.

VirgoPlay the game you’ve been practicing to win. Forge ahead, and anticipate changes. Stay light on your feet, and have fun.. LibraSet into place structures to support your next adventure. Balance and weigh your options. Make long-term decisions and preparations. ScorpioGo for big financial goals with a partner’s support. Teamwork goes the distance.

33rd Anniversary DECLAN KIELY

Right from the time I lost you, Life just hasn’t been the same, I wish that I had one more chance, To see you smile again, The sun still rises with each dawn, Night still follows day, But there’s always something missing, Ever since you went away, The tide comes in, the tide goes out, The sands of time pass by, But thoughts of you will never fade, I hope you’re peaceful wherever you are, Life has surely lost it’s spectacle, The world often feels blue, But what gives me strength and hope, Is the precious memory of you. - Love always, your loving wife Noeleen. Our hearts still ache with sadness, And many tears still flow, What it meant to lose you, No one will ever know. We hold you close within our hearts, And there you will remain, To walk with us, Throughout our lives, Until we meet again. - From our loving son Eddie, daughter in law Jill and grandchildren Dylan & Sophia.

A special day another year, A loving thought, a silent tear, A little prayer to keep in touch, Dear David we love you, And miss you so much. - Always in our hearts Natasha & Caitlin xxx Your special day we cannot share, To you our gift must be a prayer, So with broken hearts we whisper low, Happy Birthday David, we miss you so. - Always remembered Liz xxx

In loving memory of Elizabeth Fitzgerald, late of Woodlawn Grove, whose anniversary occurs on 10 of September Mass offered. As time goes by without you, The days turn into years, They hold a thousand memories, And a million silent tears, For those who have loved and lost you. And whose parting brought such pain, We will treasure your memory forever, In a world that is never the same. Quietly today your memory we treasure, Missing you always, forgetting you never, Will those who think of her today, A little prayer to Jesus say. - From your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Novena to the Sacred Heart Dear Heart of Jesus, in the past I have asked for many favours, this time I ask for this one special favour (mention favour). Take it Dear Jesus and place it within Your own broken heart, where Your Father sees it. Then in His merciful eyes it will become Your favour and not mine. Say this prayer for 3 days. Promise publication and favour will be granted. Never known to fail. M.K.

Today’s the anniversary Of the day I lost you, And for a time it felt as though My life had ended too. Loss has taught me many things And now I face each day, With hope and happy memories To help me on my way. And though I’m full of sadness That you’re no longer here, Your influence still guides me And I still feel you near. What we shared will never die It lives within my heart, Bringing strength and comfort While we are apart. - From your loving son Oliver, love and miss you. What would I give, to clasp his hand, His happy face to see, To hear his voice, and see his smile That meant so much to me. The rolling stream, of life rolls on, But still the vacant chair, Recalls the love, the voice, the

I think of things you used to say, And all that you would do, At some point every single day, My thoughts will turn to you. To lose you was a bitter wrench, The pain cut to my core, I cried until my tears ran out, And then I cried some more, This would be your wish for me, That I’d be ever sad, So I try to remind myself, Of happy times we had, I know I can’t be with you now, And you cant be with me, But safe inside my heart, You stay that’s where you’ll always be. - From your loving son Patrick and grandchildren David, Alex, Tommy & Jaxon The pain that I am feeling Never seems to go away I wish I could visit heaven If only for a day I know that you would hold me And whisper in my ear “Don’t think of me as gone away, Because I am always near” I know you’re in a better place Where you are at peace and free To be happy in eternal life And can still watch over me Although the door between our worlds Is closed and we’re apart Until the time God opens it You’re always in my heart. - Love always, your daughter Rosemary, son in law Jason and grandchildren Indiana and Pat x. We’re missing you a little more, Each time we hear your name, We’ve cried so many tears, Yet our heart’s broken just the same, We miss our times together, Things in common we could share, But nothing fills the emptiness, Now you’re no longer there, We’ve so many precious memories, To last our whole life through, Each one of them reminders, Of how much we’re missing you. - I love you and miss you daddy, love always from your daughter Lyndsey A Father’s touch, A Daddy’s kiss, A grieving Daughter, The Dad i always will miss, An empty house, An empty chair, A Fathers love, no longer there. A broken heart, Tear filled eye. Another soul in the sky. The times we shared, The laughs we had, Things I miss when I think of My Dad. - Love always, your daughter Lisamarie, son in law Craig and grand daughter Amelia Rose x.

New Ross The early morning rain on Thursday last gave way to a lovely Autumn Day which with little or no wind was perfect for golf. We had withdrawals due to the weather early on and some teams had to be re-constituted and there were even a number of three-balls. But having overcome these minor obstacles all taking part thoroughly enjoyed the game and of course the coffee afterwards. It was one of the late teams out fared the best both in the weather and in the scoring stakes too. Coming home well clear of the field in the number one position were, Tim Doyle (16), Ger Freyne (23), Frank Boyle (26) and Michael Long (26) with a brilliant score of 109 points. Five points behind (104) and in second place came Willie Whitty (22), Michael Gannon (23), Larry Shannon (24) and Martin Hartley (27). It took a count back and a recheck to determine third and fourth places before Johnny Browne (19), Seamus Bolger (24) and Tony Sexton (26) took third by virtue of a better back nine 50/46 (47+3) the added bonus for a three-person team and a final total of 102 points.
