Dia is mhuire diobh go leir a cairde and welcome to News Report 1166 from Millstreet.

Fondest greetings dear listeners and I wish you all the very best on this nice Tuesday morning.

We’re into the merry month of May and Feile na Bealtainne is in full swing all over Duhallow with events being held at all hours, both early and late. Old Customs and trades are being revived . A fine exhibition of crafts and trades was held at our Millstreet Country Park at the weekend and it drew crowds as were never seen before .

On Thursday night last Drishane Castle came alive to the voices of Our renowned Duhallow Choir followed by a world class Choir from Sweeden. Following the gala performances some wonderful refreshmants were served in the Castle Hall. It was attended by many people who were holidaying from America and they were in awe of the event, and took home with them the word, that Ireland is the place to visit.
