Eily’s Report – 17th June
Dia is mhuire diobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.
It’s great to be packing and going off on holiday, but alas coming home is never easy. The tiredness sets in and is in no hurry leaving. But the memories of a wonderful trip never go away and with a few pictures and leaflets to sustain special moments, you can’t go wrong. Fifty three senior citizens climbed aboard Darren Keely’s super bus in the West End on Monday June 9 and for the next five days it was enjoyment all the way. We were booked into the beautiful Arklow Bay hotel in County Wexford. It was ad lib breakfast every morning and a four course dinner on our return in the evening. Our days were full and varied. We went to Glendalough and Powerscourt House in brilliant sunshine. Also the National Park in Wexford and boarded the infamous Dunbrody Famine Ship in New Ross. There was time for shopping and a visit to a lovely four acre Lavender Farm where we were treated to fresh scones and tea/coffee on the house. Everywhere we went we were shown videos of the places we were in and guides to make sure we got the most out of our stay. The weather was delightful and the scenery was sublime. Wicklow is a beautiful county. All along the way the lust green fields and crops made you say a silence prayer to thank the Good Lord for it. Their landscape shows no evidence of damage by wind and rain, it is easy to see that they get much less harsh weather than we do. We were alerted to Irelands biggest bridge just on time to view it properly as our coach moved over it. The Rose FitzGerald-Kennedy Bridge spans the river Barrow between Counties Kilkenny and Wexford. It is awesome, different to any we’ve seen so far in Ireland. The enjoyment continued on into the evenings when after dinner some took scenic walks of the local area, others who were not so adventurous enjoyed a game of forty five but all were into the ballroom to finish the day with music, song and dance.
Wonderfully Successful Schools’ Sports 2025
Blessed with magnificent weather the Annual School Sports took place at Millstreet Town Park on Monday, 16th June 2025 with many schools enthusiastically participating. Several medals were won by very talented athletes in all the schools. The highest score went to Presentation N.S., Millstreet and the prestigious Cup was presented to the winning school. Judging by the superb atmosphere throughout the various races and different age groups … all the schools had the winning feeling participating in such a cheerful and energetic manner. Here we focus on the aftermath of the exciting day demonstrating the tremendous dedication of the splendid Volunteers who coordinate the hugely enjoyable event in such a professional manner. We also meet the many successful participants with their medals from Scoil Mhuire, Millstreet BNS. Tap on the sixteen images to enlarge. (S.R.)

Eily’s Report – 3rd June
Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.
I didn’t sleep very well last night, I don’t know why but the shut eye evaded me for hours. Everybody has their own way of dealing with insomnia. It has to be very annoying for those who suffer from it regularly. Thankfully that is not the case with me, not very often anyway. And when it does I just lie there and resign myself to the fact that this is it for me till the morning. Reading a little often helps or a glance at Facebook. The loss of sleep leaves you drowsy and not in full command of your plans for the new day. But with a little effort I’ll get by. It’s a lively day outside. There is a fresh breeze with a brightness without direct sunshine and the flowers and rose trees are dancing to the tune of the birds. Enough to spur anybody out of a lazy mood.
“Land Rover” Key Found This Evening in Park Car Park – Key Collected by Owner
UPDATE: A very grateful Owner of the Key arrived this morning to collect the Key having spent quite some time searching before becoming aware of our Millstreet Website notice! And the electronic Key works perfectly despite the fact that it had fallen on the ground before found. A happy result …. Renewed thanks to the Couple who found the Key. (S.R.)
Two very kind people arranged to hand in a “Land Rover” Key this Sunday evening (1st June 2025) which they had just found in the Car Park of Millstreet Town Park (not the West End Car Park). To retrieve the key just contact 086 825 0074 and I shall arrange to provide the key. (S.R.)
