Dia is mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my Report.
Rain, rain rattle pane and if the forecast is anything to go by, the panes will rattle. Please God it won’t be as severe as the storms of a few weeks ago which left a trail of destruction in it’s wake. But we soldier on.
March Fair almost passed unbeknownst, very few stalls in the town and just as few horses at the Fair Field. The near demise of that ancient annual event will always make me sad. It’s an age old custom and in other countries they not only keep such events going, but they build on them. While holding on to as much of the old ways as possible they add a new dimensions which is both pleasing and interesting to all sections of their community.
Huge congratulations to Millstreet CS senior football team and coaches on their win today in the school Munster final.
Well deserved win.

We thank Frank Reen for providing us with a copy of four images of Ballydaly Teams which have direct links with the late Denis Murphy, Ballydaly. These wonderful photos have been displayed in splendid frames at Ballydaly Community Hall for the past number of years. We also wish to express our thanks to David Tarrant who was the Trainer of the 1975 Team for alerting us to the historical images. This Saturday evening (2nd March 2024) the management of the traffic for the Funeral was excellent by the marvellously dedicated Stewards directing one way traffic back Clara Road to the Murphy Family home and returning by Ballydaly Church on to the main Ballydaly-Millstreet road. Special thanks also to Patrick Lynch originally from Ballydaly and a neighbour of the Murphy Family for his magnificent tribute which he shared on Facebook but which we were also permitted to share on our Millstreet website where it has been widely viewed and much praised. Here are the four photos of the Ballydaly Teams. Tap on the images to enlarge. (S.R.)
