Fondest greetings dear listeners and I wish you all the very best on this very pleasant, sunny, Tuesday morning.
The Annual March fair was held in the Town on Sunday. It was cold but dry as it always is for March Fair. The town was lined with colourful stalls, and there was a wide range of livestock on
display in the outskirts. Prices were down with some reaching new lows where a pony was sold for €5 while laying hens were selling at €15 each. One rooster reached new heights when he flew up on the high roof of Barrett’s house and was quickly captured on camera by Sean Radley and in no time at all, made it to the web. Take a look.
We are delighted to say that the mighty Cork 20 Rally will be based at the Green Glens Arena this year. On October 4/5/6th.
And on to-morrow Wednesday evening, March 6th, it will be launched in our Town Square. Between 7 to 8 pm and all are welcome. Please come out in large numbers to greet this great event.
