A Very Special Music Programme on LTV Tonight from 9.45 p.m.

Dan Joe Kelleher of LTV has alerted us to the fact that he will be broadcasting a truly delightful programme recorded in 1998.   It was recorded in Millstreet Country Park at Christmas 1998 when the MC was the famous Seán Ó Sé.   This Concert is one and a half hours in duration.     The programme is available on Channel 30 and 35 UHF.    When LTV is not being transmitted EWTN is seen.  (S.R.)

And Sincere Thanks To You, Michael – Website Coordinator Supreme

What a wonderful post to view on New Year’s Day 2014 in which Michael Cashman, our Millstreet Website Coordinator Supreme, has acknowledged and expressed heartfelt thanks to the mighty Team involved in helping to make  our Millstreet Website the great success it has become.   But, Michael, without you we could not have come near what has been achieved.  With your amazing Search Engine you have enlightened us all with news and stories about which we would never have heard.    It has been said that we have one of the very best websites one could find and it’s indeed uplifting to hear this.   It has reached these heights because of the constant new developments which you have  introduced such as the facility to link to relevant television programmes, the inclusion of the very informative Twitter feature and the use of the random photos, the comment line and noting the most popular posts at any one time…to mention but a few of the innovations which you have so very professionally brought to reality.    As a Team and on behalf of the many Loyal Visitors to www.millstreet.ie we extend sincere thanks to you, Michael, not only for your superb expertise, consistent kindness in correcting any website problems so quickly and efficiently but for doing all this on a completely voluntary basis and in such a cheerful manner.   Míle, míle buíochas is rath Dé ar an obair iontach.   Happy New Year to Everyone!    (S.R.)

Happy New Year

As 2013 has come to a close, we’d just like to thank everyone that helped us in any way during the year to make Millstreet.ie what it is today, from Seán who is irreplaceable with his camera, Hannelie who is always there in the background, Eily with her Regional Report, Sharon with the Parish Newsletter, Francis for his memories, the local clubs for their updates, those that pass onto us history that would otherwise be lost but who prefer to remain anonymous, to everyone else that sent us articles, photos, or shared information with us during the past year, and to all those who simply visited the site from near and far and continue to stay connected with Millstreet. We’d be a little bit less without any one of ye.

Wishing everyone the very best for you and yours in 2014.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain. [read more …] “Happy New Year”

Christmas Old Style Window Continues to be Much Admired

Murphy Furniture Store at West End, Millstreet with it superb old style Christmas window continues to attract lots of attention from many. Note how Maurice Walsh's "Dobbin", the 1950s toy horse, fits in so appropriately in the old style setting. Santa can now take a well earned rest for awhile before preparing for next year.
