Dia is mhuire diobh go leir a Cairde and welcome to News Report 1172 from Millstreet.
Fondest Greetings dear listeners and I wish you all the very best on this lovely calm Tuesday morning.

Today we want to send best wishes for many years of happy retirement to Denis J Hickey, better known as Denny John, of Cullen who has recently retired following almost 50 years of faithful service at Noel C Duggans. His cheery ways and unequalled attention to duty,will be sorely missed. Again we wish himself and his lovely wife Mary, the best of health and happiness in the future.

A note from Bina Burke to say a million thanks to all those who supported their church gate collect in aid of Courtmacherry LifeBoats at the weekend, which amounted to €2 053.

Following almost 5 years of waiting our museum looks like its going to be a reality once again, at the Carnegie Hall. At the moment it is being fitted with state of the art show cabinets and  up-to –date computer equipment. Needless to say it will be costly so Sean Radley and his team will need lots of help to get it up and running. And the good news is that it will also double as our brand new tourist office. So keep an eye on its progress.
