Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a chairde, and welcome to my report.
The Autumn chill is in the air but as we escaped the ravages of the hurricane, we can easily put on extra clothes to keep warm. Some people complained about the media saying that they over did the prediction of what was to come but it was some record that not one life was lost by the monster wind. It’s comforting to know that we have such a broad based array of advisory bodies to warn us in such detail of impending forces of Nature. And we can only say a heartfelt word of thanks to all those who showed such an interest in our welfare.
Fire Safety Week starts on this Friday October 11th and members of our local Brigade will be at our shops in the town to meet the public and chat with them about their work.
