Hard to believe July 2008 seen the last Ireland’s Saturday Night published Throughout the 80,90s i had people queue up for hours awaiting the arrival of the ‘Pink’ it was the only way of finding out about all sports played that day. A land before the internet and mobile phones



From this morning’s Retail Express …… It’s not always the usual suspects that abuse shop staff ….

1997 we said goodbye for good to the original Riley’s Toffee Rolls ….. and good bye to Opal Fruits-to a name change but we still remember the advertisement ‘Opal Fruits made to make your mouth water …..

Great to hear one of my favourite customers the late Leo McCaffrey singing Rose of Tralee at Croke Park when Kerry won the All Ireland I’m sure he would have been proud of that.
