Dia is mhuire diobh go leir a cairde and welcome to News Report 1183 from Millstreet.
Fondest greetings dear listeners and I wish you all the best on this beautiful warm Tuesday morning, the first one in September.
The long spell of fine weather continues to enhance the lives of our people both young and old, and with it comes an abundance of the fruits of the Earth, Baoichas le Dia. Our farmers continue to save the silage and corn and the wild berries are there for the taking. Blackberries were never so plentiful and it’s great to see so many people out picking them with their children and preserving this free gift for later uses.
In Rathmore on Sunday a monster cycle/walking event was held in memory of Paudie O Leary and Willie Reen. Over 130 people took part, and due to it’s great success the organisers are confindent that it will grow into an annual event. Pictures are on our website and it was all recorded on camera by LTV2 for your Winter viewing.
The Launch of the mighty Cork 20 car event was held in the Town Square outside the Wallis Arms Hotel during the week. It was attended by all the top brass of the event as well as a large crowd of locals. At the reception which was held in the Hotel after the launch, the Millstreet development Group were lauded for the great efforts that they put in, in order to get this high level event to be centered in Millstreet’s Green Glen’s Arena.
