Festival of Finn 2May- 62019 nd

th

Corofin, the gateway to the majes�c Burren, sprung from a historical se�lement that serviced the needs of the O’Brien Barony of Inchiquin.

Over the centuries it has grown into a modern, busy village with a wide variety of businesses & services. Built on the River Fergus the countryside around the village is do�ed with lakes the biggest of which are Lough Inciquin & Lough Atedaun both of which are an instant a�rac�on for fishermen.

Corofin is home to the Clare Heritage & Genealogical Research Centre where you can trace your roots or browse through local history with features on the Famine, Emigra�on, Music, Culture & see some very interes�ng ancient Artefacts.

Each May Bank Holiday Weekend, the whole village takes part in the Fes�val of Finn which has everything from the Village Market to the Fes�val Dance, the All Ireland Beards & Moustaches Compe��on to World Stone Throwing Championships, Car Treasure Hunt to the Lark at the Lake & so much more.

POLITICIANS ARE ALL THE SAME!

Is this true?

I

would certainly hope not or we’re all in trouble.

The politician not in power is going to fight the hardest for you, with the hope that you will remember the good deeds they did when the next election comes around.

The sitting politician has probably the best possible chance of getting things done for you as they have the direct access to the relevant contacts.

‘The Party’ pack the power over the Independent’s but some Independents are closely aligned and that’s when the good contacts come in. Always remember it’s who you know in politics.

ELECTIONS

So now the Elections are upon us, here’s my

VOTE

advice for the candidates: C hange it up, be different!

Don’t make promises you know you can’t fulfill, the public don’t forget!

DAMMED You’re dammed if you do and you’re dammed if you don’t call to the houses to press the flesh.

Some expect you to call, others will shut the door on you, good luck!

Go around once a year! Is there anything worse than only showing up when you want our vote?

Finally, dying!

rural

Ireland

is

VILLAGES The

villages

are

losing

their services, people are migrating to the cities or larger towns, plenty of discussions but little action.

Incentivise people back to these towns and villages.

Give Tax Breaks for anyone opening a new business in

a rural village or a ‘Rates’ amnesty for the first number of years of a new business.

BROADBAND High Speed Broadband to keep everyone connected is needed NOW! It takes a thick skin to put oneself forward for any public office so please keep in mind that all candidates are normal individuals like ourselves trying to better your local area.

In the end, democracy will decide who will go forward to represent us.

Think of those who fought and died so that you could have the right to vote in this Country,

USE YOUR VOTE WISELY!

Ireland is a Democracy tied up in Bureaucracy

OPINION Justin

An eighty year old couple were having problems remembering things, so they decided to go to their doctor to make sure nothing was wrong with them. When they arrived at the doctor’s office, they explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory. A�er checking the couple out, the doctor told them that they were physically okay but might want to start wri�ng things down, making notes to help them remember things. The couple thanked the doctor and le�. Later that night while watching TV, the old man got up from his chair and his wife asked, “Where are you going?” He replied, “To the kitchen.” She asked, “Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?”

“Sure.” Then his wife asked him, “Don’t you think you should write it down so you can remember it?” “No, I can remember that.”

“Well, I also would like some strawberries on top. You had be�er write that down cause I know you’ll forget that,” his wife said. “I can remember that, you want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.” She replied, “Well, I also would like whipped cream on top. I know you will forget that. You had be�er write it down.” With irrita�on in his voice, he said, “I don’t need to write that down, I can remember that.” He went into the kitchen. A�er about 20 minutes, he returned from the kitchen & handed her a plate of bacon and eggs. She stared at the plate for a moment & said, “You forgot my toast.”

The other day, my wife asked me to pass her lips�ck but I accidentally passed her a glue s�ck. She s�ll isn’t talking to me.

A woman walks into a library and asked if they had any books about paranoia. The librarian says “They’re right behind you!”

A blonde goes for a job interview in an office.

The interviewer decides to start with the basics. ‘So, Miss, can you tell us your age, please?’ The blonde counts carefully on her fingers for about 30 seconds before replying, ‘Ehhhh .. 22!’ The interviewer tries another straigh�orward one to break the ice. ‘And can you tell us your height, please?’ The young lady stands up & produces a measuring tape from her handbag. She then traps one end under her foot & extends the tape to the top of her head.

She checks the measurement & announces, ‘Five foot two!’ This isn’t looking good so the interviewer goes for the real basics. ‘And uhh, just to confirm for our records, your name please?’ The blonde bobs her head from side to side for about twenty seconds, mouthing something silently to herself, before replying, ‘Mandy!’ The interviewer is completely baffled at this stage, so he asks, ‘Just out of curiosity, Miss. We can understand your coun�ng on your fingers to work out your age & the measuring tape for your height is obvious, but what were you doing when we asked you your name?’

‘Ohh that!’, replies the blonde, ‘That’s just me running through ‘Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you....’’

I bought some shoes from a drug dealer. I don’t know what he laced them with, but I’ve been tripping all day.

I told my girlfriend she drew her eyebrows too high. She seemed surprised.

Today at the bank, an old lady asked me to help check her balance. So I pushed her over.
