Deasy’s exit opens door for rival Coffey JOHN Deasy, who has been a Waterford TD for 17 years, has decided not to contest the next general election.

Mr Deasy (51) followed his father Austin into the Dáil. He won the seat for Fine Gael in 2002 and successfully defended it in three elections.

Despite his electoral success, Mr Deasy was never promoted to the Cabinet.

In recent years he came in for criticism from some of his constituency colleagues who claimed he was not attending meetings or paying enough attention to Waterford issues.

In June, a Fine Gael meeting in Dungarvan unanimously passed a vote of no confidence in their TD. Mr Deasy hit back, calling on the party to stand down its Waterford organisation, and pointing out that the motion was tabled by the brother of his constituency rival, Senator Paudie Coffey.

Mr Coffey, a former junior

minister, was pipped to the post by Mr Deasy in the 2016 election. The senator has been nominated as a Fine Gael candidate and is now being tipped to return to the Dáil after the next election.

Mr Deasy rejected claims that divisions in the Fine Gael branch had contributed to his decision to leave.

In 2017 Taoiseach Leo Varadkar appointed Mr Deasy as the Government’s envoy to the United States and the TD says he will consider working there. He told the Irish Examiner he would “like to do something different before I get too old”.

Mr Deasy’s career was blighted by a strange incident when he was seen to light a cigarette in the Dáil bar just days after the introduction of the smoking ban in 2004.

As a result, he was dropped from the front bench and never regained the position. In 2016 >>Turn to page 4

Monika needs your help A FUNDRAISING drive has been launched to secure treatment for a woman who suffered serious head injury.

Monika Piech, from Tramore, was in a coma for weeks after a fall in March.

Since then she has been slipping in and out of consciousness. Her awareness is improving daily but she is not yet able to talk.

Monika needs the support

of a professional rehabilitation team. She is waiting for a place in The National Rehabilitation Hospital, Dun Laoghaire, but this can take up to 12 months.

The family has been searching for other options and has found a place it describes “absolutely fantastic”– Clarenbridge Nursing Home in Co Galway. It needs to raise funds for her treatment

and also for Cyber Eye – nonverbal communication device which Monika will need until she is able to speak again.

A GoFundMe page has been set up in the name of Anka Pacholska where further information can be sought and a donation can be made.

‘Crisis is looming’ in Fair Deal scheme

A TD has warned of a crisis in the Fair Deal scheme unless urgent action is taken to address the long delays being experienced by families waiting for a place.

Waterford’s Mary Butler, Fianna Fáil spokesperson on older people, said that in June, the waiting times for a place in a nursing home stood at four weeks, but over the past two months this has increased to eight weeks, with some parts of the country experiencing waits of up to 12 weeks.

“The rapid increase in the waiting times over the past two months is extremely worrying, and should act as a red flag for the minister,” she said.

“Unless these backlogs are addressed the situation will escalate and we could see a situation whereby more than 1,000 people will be waiting on a place come the autumn. The system will simply not be able to cope.”

Ms Butler warned: “Unless specific actions are taken we will be facing a major crisis this winter”.

PLANS for a major restructuring of the Garda have drawn criticism from some politicians in Waterford.

As part of the overhaul, the present Waterford division is to be merged with the CarlowKilkenny Garda division.

There are fears that this could reduce the level of policing in Waterford city which is the only one of the five major cities to be merged.

There are also fears that Garda headquarters could be in Kilkenny, not Waterford, although this has not been confirmed.

The new structure will be implemented throughout 2020. It will see the number of Garda regions reduce from six to four.

The aim is to deliver a more localised service. In a statement, An Garda Síochána said: “It means more gardaí working on the frontline, greater supervision, better resources, less paperwork, and more career opportunities for members and staff.”

Fianna Fáil councillor Eddie Mulligan described proposed changes as “completely unacceptable.”

He pointed out that the six Dublin Garda divisions will remain unchanged, as will the Cork city, Galway and Limerick city divisions. Waterford’s population is expected to grow by 50 per cent in the next 20 years

and Mr Mulligan said amalgamating its Garda division ran contrary to the National Planning Framework.

Sinn Féin TD David Cullinane said the proposed changes raised serious concerns about the status of policing in Waterford city and county. He said he was not against reform but that Waterford should be treated the same as Limerick and Galway.

He said there were fears about where the headquarters of a new policing district would be located and warned: “There is no guarantee now or into the future that the headquarters will be based in Waterford.”

Fianna Fáil TD Mary Butler said she had “grave concerns” that the merger could make Waterford the only city without a Divisional HQ. “I am also worried about the level of resources which will be available,” she said. “I sincerely hope this new plan is not being used as a tactic to dilute services across the city and county.”

Justice Minister Charlie Flanagan said the new model would bring very significant improvements. “It will increase the number of frontline gardaí and maximise the organisation’s operational impact at the local level to deliver improved, more consistent, highly visible policing,” he said.

Deasy exit opens door for FG rival From front page he turned down an offer from then Taoiseach Enda Kenny to chair the Oireachtas Housing Committee.

He single-handedly initiated a campaign to ban handguns in Ireland which culminated in his private members’s Bill being enacted by a Fianna Fáil government in 2008.

He was an effective member of the Public Accounts Committee and an early champion of Garda whistleblower Maurice McCabe.

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar paid tribute to Mr Deasy, saying his

retirement “will end more than half a century of service by the Deasy family; one of the proudest and most honourable in our political history “John has done stunningly effective work as my envoy to Capitol Hill informing Congress about the impact Brexit could have on Ireland and campaigning for immigration reform for Irish citizens.”

Mr Deasy grew up in Dungarvan, and attended secondary school at St Augustine’s College, Abbeyside. He is married to television presenter Maura Derrane.

A tide of wrappers mars river and beach

TRAMORE beach and the River Suir in Waterford city are both ‘moderately littered’, a survey has found.

The river has improved its designation from the ‘heavily

littered’ status it was accorded in last year’s survey, conducted

by An Taisce for Irish Business Against Litter (IBAL).

An Taisce said: “The boardwalk area was well

presented and generally good with regard to litter. Much of the land-based items were in between the parked cars and the wall by the bus station.

“The main items were food and sweet wrappers, cigarette butts and chewing gum, with lower levels of dog fouling, coffee cups, plastic bottles and plastic bags. Water based items included a couple of bicycles, shopping trolley and two traffic cones as well as plastic bottles, cans, sweet papers and food wrappers.”

Beaches, harbours, rivers and their immediate environs were monitored by the Environmental Education Unit of An Taisce over the course of the summer.

The An Taisce report for Tramore beach stated: “There was very little land-based litter, with the beach area well managed.

Most of the litter was below the tide line. Along the tide line there was quite a lot of marine litter present.

Main litter items included sweet papers with lower levels of cans, fast-food wrappers, plastic bottles, coffee cups and other paper items.”

Mapping and charting story of the Déise’s Irish language writers

PROFESSOR Pádraig Ó Macháin, Head of the Irish Department in UCC, launched a new on-line storymap and wallchart depicting the Irish language writers of the Déise at an event in Ring College.

A large crowd gathered for the launch of Dámh Dhéiseach and the launch of the 23rd edition of the periodical ‘An Linn Bhuí: Irish Ghaeltacht na nDéise’ .

It’s back to the future with Dungarvan co-op

DUNGARVAN stepped back a century to celebrate its successful co-op.

Dungarvan Co-operative Society has been 100 years in existence and marked the occasion with music, a barbecue and the chance to view the co-op’s history through the pages of a new book.

It charts the first fateful steps taken by seven farmers when they gathered in the

market square in Dungarvan 100 years ago to launch the co-op in trying times.

Siobhán Talbot, Glanbia Group managing director, paid tribute to the work of the current staff and the ingenuity and vision of the founding farmers who set up the co-op and drove it in its early years.

“Dungarvan was always at the pioneering edge of the dairy sector in Ireland

and the farmers, staff and directors showed great innovation over the years,” she said. “People are the key to a strong enterprising business that adapts to consumer needs and that’s still the case today.”

Strong local cast as Nolan returns to Garter Lane JIM Nolan’s new play is shaping up to be one of the highlights of the cultural calendar.

The Red Iron opens at Garter Lane in November. It is set on Waterford’s long abandoned railway bridge in the aftermath of the Déise’s 2017 All-Ireland Hurling Final defeat to Galway.

The production, presented under the banner of the muchmissed Red Kettle Theatre Company, will see the return of some of Waterford’s leading actors to the city’s stage.

Brian Doherty and Jenni Ledwell will be joined by Michael Quinlan, Keith Dunphy, Greta Rochford and English actor Neil Ditt.

Unveiling his cast, Nolan, who will also direct, said he felt privileged to have been able to

choose from a generation of local actors who excel at their craft.

“This is dream casting.

Whether my locally based colleagues or the lads who’ve forged their careers in London, I couldn’t have asked for a bet-

ter team.

“They’re as good as it gets and now, I have no excuses!”

Producer Michael Grant reports precedented public interest in the production.

“Jim Nolan’s name on a play poster is a hallmark for a great night at the theatre but even by his standards, the response to this one has been extraordinary.

I think the play’s iconic setting and storyline have caught the public’s imagination and this week’s cast announcement has really peaked the level of interest.”

Sponsored by Blackwater Distillery, booking for The Red Iron is now open with preview tickets for Saturday November 9 and Monday November 11 available .

MAKING BETTER CONNECTIONS

dr phil While trying to navigate the swamp that is morning television, it can be hard to find something that is anyway new or exciting. It seems that the rule for this time of the day is to have the schedules packed with programmes that won’t frighten the children.

Now that Jeremy Kyle has been taken off the offerings are even more vegetarian than usual. Love or loathe Kyle, he at least offered an alternative to the endless reruns of old shows and programmes that have been repeated so often that you can watch them on mute and still not miss anything.

That is where Dr. Phil comes in. Not exactly Jeremy Kyle nevertheless he is someone who always has a definite viewpoint and just won’t go along to get along.

You know that there is going to be an element of sensationalism to the guests that appear on his show - they have to pull in an audience somehow - and the old kumbaya approach of his mentor Oprah Winfrey just doesn’t cut it in this day and age.

In a time where it seems that everything is permissible, particularly when it comes to what passes for American culture he is a figure that resolutely says ‘No’.

He is a reality check for people who don’t think that actions have consequences and just because you want something your way doesn’t mean you should get it your way.

In the confrontational set up of his programme it is often the people who are there complaining about their spouses, children, relatives who also find themselves on the receiving end of Dr. Phil’s no nonsense advice.

Although to call it ‘advice’ would not really be a completely accurate descriptive. He doesn’t advise people what to do, he tells them what to do. And for that there seems to be a large audience.

He is the stern father figure and for some reason a lot of people buy into that and that doesn’t seem like changing anytime soon. In a touchy feely, snowflake world Dr. Phil shines a bright and unforgiving light on people’s behaviour.

‘Very strong evidence’ 5G is radiation risk A ‘CONCERNED mam’ has taken issue with Vodafone’s claim that 5G broadband poses no radiation risk.

Waterford is one of five locations chosen to try out the high speed system and the company has dismissed as “baseless” the fears of residents from the Claremont Road area who have been protesting.

A local woman, who asked to remain anonymous, told Waterford Today: “I was surprised to read that Vodafone has dismissed the radiation fears from 5G of the residents of Claremont road as ‘baseless’... these fears are based on very strong evidence from the international appeal by doctors and scientists from around the world calling for a moratorium on 5G technology.

“As of August 2nd, 2019, there are 134,458 signatories from 198 countries. (www.5Gspaceappeal.org)”.

In a letter to Waterford Today she said: “Even before 5G was proposed, dozens of petitions

and appeals by international scientists, including the Freiburger Appeal signed by over 3,000 physicians, called for a halt to the expansion of wireless technology and a moratorium on new base stations.

“In 2015, 215 scientists from 41 countries communicated their alarm to the United Nations (UN) and World Health Organization (WHO).

They stated that ‘numerous recent scientific publications have shown that EMF [electromagnetic fields] affects living organisms at levels well below most international and national guidelines’ ”.

And she said: “Science is being overlooked and the precautionary principle is not being applied for the sake of ‘faster speeds’.

“If our children get cancer or become sterile in the future, could we really use ‘faster internet speeds’ as justification when they ask us why we did not oppose the 5G rollout?”

Last orders called at 47 pubs in county WATERFORD has lost 47 rural pubs in the last 14 years, a study has found.

The Drinks Industry Group of Ireland (Digi) says this represents a decline of more than 18 per cent in the county since 2005.

It says the figure is a stark reminder of the pub’s continued decline in rural Ireland.

In the period between 2005 and 2018, 1,535 or nearly 20% of rural pubs closed, Digi’s analysis of Revenue figures show the rural pub population declined by almost a quarter in Mayo (-21% or 98 pubs), Tipperary (-22.5% or 118 pubs) and Cork (-25.6% or 313 pubs) down from 1221 to 908 in same period, 2005 to 2018.

In contrast, Dublin has experienced a net loss of only 10 pubs since 2005, a 1% decrease.

The next lowest declines in pub numbers were in Wicklow (-1.9%), Meath (-2.4%) and Kildare (-9.9%).

Festival will be All Together better next year

ORGANISERS of the All Together Now festival are working to ensure that next year’s event will not suffer from the serious traffic congestion that spoiled it for many people this year.

“We are absolutely and fully committed to making sure that the issues that arose this year’s festival are not repeated,” the organisers said in a statement.

Some of this year’s’s festival goers complained that it took seven hours to get from Dublin to the site on the Curraghmore Estate.

There were also lengthy traffic jams on the roads around Portlaw when the festival ended on August 5.

“We have met and are working closely with An Garda Siochana and our other partner agencies to ensure that the traffic experienced travelling

to this year’s festival does not happen again,” said the festival’s organisers.

“We aim for the highest standards and plan to deliver the best festival experience possible. We are deeply disappointed that some areas of this years All Together Now fell short of expectations, and for this, we are truly sorry.”

Next year the festival will again be held over the August Bank Holiday weekend, July 31 to August 3, at Curraghmore Estate.

“We can confirm that our capacity will not increase next year, as we endeavour to improve the overall experience for our loyal audience,” said the statement.

“All Together Now will remain again Strictly Over 21s.

Children between the ages of 12 and under can attend free

of charge, accompanied by a parent with a family ticket.

“Presale General & Family prices will remain the same as our second chapter prices from €179.50 - €208. The Loyalty Presale allows those who attended All Together Now Chapter One or Two a chance to avail of early bird ticket prices before the festival goes on general sale.”

Tickets will go on general sale at 9am Thursday, 29 August via Ticketmaster Ireland and usual outlets, priced at €220 including booking fee. General and family campervan passes also go on sale priced at €75.

“Our creative team that comes together in Curraghmore from all around the world, are already hard at work dreaming of new ideas to enhance next year’s festival,” said the organisers.

Q

Astronomer Carl Sagan famously said that there are more stars in the heavens than all the grains of sand on all the beaches of the world. And, imagine it: you are made of stardust. Explain, please.

A. According to “How It Works: Book of Amazing Science,” “The elements that make up our bodies were forged inside ancient stars.” After the Big Bang, hydrogen was plentiful, with lesser amounts of helium, lithium and beryllium.

Eventually, hydrogen and helium combined to form clouds.

As these clouds collapsed, stars

By Bill Sones and formed, with enough heat and Rich Sones, pressure to trigger nuclear fusion, PhD and the hydrogen atoms fused to form helium.

“As the stars aged, the helium atoms started to create even heavier elements, including carbon, nitrogen and oxygen.”

Ultimately, this process produced the nuclei of most of the elements up to number 26, iron. When the most massive stars explode, enough energy is released to make the elements that are heavier than iron.

From the remnants of these old exploded stars, more star systems were formed, including our own Sun and planets, providing us with all the elements we have on Earth today.

As for our bodies, we are made up of oxygen (65%), carbon (18.5%), hydrogen (9.5%), nitrogen (3.2%), calcium (1.5%), phosphorus (1%), potassium (0.4%), sulphur (0.3%), sodium (0.2%), and some 13 other elements (0.4%).

We are indeed the stuff of stars.

“For Ava” by Vera Twomey

L

ast week in the Book Centre in Waterford, I attended the launch for Vera Twomey’s book “For Ava.” I felt privileged and honoured to be in the presence of such a beautiful mother who was - and still is – going to such great lengths to give her sick daughter Ava the chance of a better life.

At the age of four months, Ava was diagnosed with Dravet Syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy that causes frequent and potentially life-threatening seizures. The diagnosis threw the family into chaos.

Ava was given numerous medications, some of which didn’t work at all, and others which had no more than a temporary effect.

Vera then became aware of a new form of treatment which had been successfully used in Holland, Canada and the USA, namely medical cannabis.

Sadly and unforgivably, whilst this drug is legal in the aforementioned countries, it remains illegal in Ireland.

Vera famously walked all the way from Cork to Dublin to

breda gardner Natural Healing

protest for legalisation of medicinal cannabis, campaigning across the country.

She has directly confronted the Taoiseach, HSE and Irish government, but is still waiting for the legislation to be passed to make medicinal cannabis legal here.

Vera’s fight for the best medical treatment for her daughter took her to Holland where Ava was seen by doctors, and she responded brilliantly to the treatment. Ava’s now 9 years old, and has been seizure free for ten months.

One aspect of Vera’s story in particular made my blood boil. At one stage, health

and customs officials knew that Vera would be coming through Dublin Airport with the medicinal cannabis, and they made sure they were on hand to confiscate it when she landed.

What sort of people are they?

These gutless and heartless (un)civil servants believe that their rules and regulations are more important than a little girl’s life. What a damning indictment of our ruling classes. And what a contrast to the shining light of the extraordinary person that is Vera Twomey.

There is absolutely no doubt that the present approach taken by the Irish government and health system is failing Ava and many, many others like her, causing unnecessary pain and suffering. A piecemeal system where a tiny amount of licences are issued individually is not medical best practice. Thank God there are people like Vera Twomey in the world, standing up for what is right.

Although there is obviously much written on her campaign, Vera’s book is essentially about a mother’s love for her daughter. Her fight continues to make sure that Ava receives

this life-enhancing, indeed lifesaving, medication.

David has taken on Goliath and won a partial victory: Vera still has to travel outside the country to obtain Ava’s prescription. The fight goes on.

There is a wonderful quote at the start of the book. “The greatest achievement in life is to lose fear. When you are no longer afraid, you are free.

Once this happens, you will achieve any goal in time, with focus and determination.”

Amen to that.

Vera will be speaking at the Open Minds conference in Waterford in November (I am also speaking there – see openmindsconference.com). I urge everyone to come along and meet this inspirational lady who is doing all she can to change the system in Ireland and make our world a better place.

Food and craft producers grow with LEO

Celebrating the people who make great food and beautiful crafts, Local Enterprise Office Waterford will sponsor two events during the Waterford Harvest Festival which takes place throughout the city from September 6th to September 8th.

The Love Local Lunch is a perennial favourite in the Waterford Harvest Festival calendar, as the business networking lunch showcases the abundant local quality produce, prepared by the talented kitchen team at Dooley’s Hotel.

Keynote speaker at this year’s Love Local Lunch is Peter Mulryan of Blackwater Distillery. Following a long career as a series producer with the BBC and RTE, Mulryan established the gin distillery in Co. Waterford in 2014. He will share his story of going from

TV producer to gin distiller and setting up an award-winning distillery on the banks of the Blackwater River.

The LEO Waterford Love Local Lunch takes place at Dooley’s Hotel on Friday, September 6th. Tickets cost €15, which includes a three course lunch and are available from www.localenterprise.ie/ waterford Another event that Local Enterprise Waterford is delighted to support is the Copper Coast Pop-Up Market in the Apple Market. A collective of talented local artists, crafters and food producers, the Copper Coast Pop-Up Market traders will display their wares beneath the Apple Market roof on Saturday, September 7th from 11am to 6pm.

These talented producers usually gather each month in

Tramore and showcase their local home-made, handmade, eco-ethical products and the Pop-Up Market will give visitors and locals an opportunity to meet the makers and hear about their creations and the inspiration behind them.

Food, the Waterford Way Market at the Apple Market on Sunday, September 8th is another chance to meet the people behind great food and discover new taste experiences as a wide range of demos will be on offer from Waterford’s diverse food community.

“The Love Local Lunch is always a hugely popular event not only because of the quality of the lunch, but because of the calibre of speakers said “Richie Walsh, Head of Enterprise with LEO Waterford .If you would like to find out more about what business

Opinion&Comment

McGrath rules out Déise comeback

Do as I say.....

N

o one could deny the fact that the issue of the environment and the world that we live in is of paramount importance. However what is becoming equally as clear is that the people bringing us not only this message, but ways in which we might contribute to bettering the environment, have already lost touch with any semblance of reality.

The Tech firm Google recently held a 2 million euro 2 day event in Italy for some of the world’s best and brightest which saw them all jet in on their private planes from all over the globe to take part in the smugfest and mutual congratulations on how environmentally aware they all are.

Fresh after giving a lecture on environmental issues Britain’s Prince Harry took a private plane, at a cost of £20,000, paid by no one knows who, for a holiday with his family in Ibiza.

Earlier this summer the actress Emma Thompson decided it was imperative that she supported the large environmental demonstrations in London. This she did by flying first class from New York, just for one day.

Professional Cassandra Greta Turnberg is somewhere at the moment sailing the Atlantic because an upcoming environmental summit at the UN just wouldn’t be the same without her. Never one to crack a smile where a frown would do, Greta can be forgiven much due to her youth and lack of experience of worldly matters.

Coming from a well heeled background she is full of good intentions but amazingly lacking in the reality of everyday life.

She could have skyped her presence, she could have taken an economy class flight and flown in daylight and highlighted the ways in which people can make flying more environmentally friendly.

Instead she will attend fresh off the boat to be patronised by diplomats and politicians who will use her and discard her like so many other photo opportunities.

Being sincere about something doesn’t automatically confer secular sainthood, it doesn’t mean you are right or that people have to listen or follow you. Your beliefs are yours and yours alone and if you want to connect with people and really make a change you will have to get down off your high horse, put away your wealth and all the privilege it confers and argue your case and offer people fresh ideas and fresh ways of living their lives in a meaningful way. Saying one thing and then living your own life in a diametrically different way doesn’t cut it in this day and age. If you want to lead, lead by example.

DEREK McGrath has ruled himself out of the race to succeed Paraic Fanning as Waterford senior hurling manager.

The former manager ended speculation after Waterford GAA chiefs appointed a fiveman committee to find a replacement for Fanning who resigned earlier this month.

Former Waterford hurlers Stephen Frampton and Tom Feeney will be on the committee along with the founder of Nemeton TV, Irial Mac Murchu, county secretary Pat Flynn and vice-chairman Seán Michael O’Regan.

Clubs have until Friday, August 30, to send in nominations for the position.

McGrath said he had been “really impressed” with the makeup of the committee.

“All five members bring a huge level of experience and expertise to the role,” he said.

“Having momentarily thought about the position I have decided against putting my name forward. I wish the prospective candidates well.”

Mark Duffy, Winch Operator Paul Ormsby and Winchman Ciarán Smith.

The event which is a 5k run in aid of two charities, Waterford Hospice – Home Care Team and the Search and Rescue Dog Association (SARDA), takes place on Saturday 14th September at 10am at Waterford Airport.

Better a real job than useless degree

A

pprenticeships are making a comeback, I read. I hope that is true. It would be a victory for commonsense and might mark a turning of the tide which has seen degrees and diplomas devised for almost every profession and trade, including my own.

It wasn’t always so. My first job was an apprenticeship, although it wasn’t called that. I was apprenticed to the editorial staff of a weekly newspaper in County Down.

I was paid almost nothing for the first six months and my wages then rose by annual increments over the next three years, reaching senior level when I was 21.

During that time I learned the trade. I covered courts and councils, funerals and football.

I learned to read the proofs, make the tea and drive the van.

I didn’t go to university and neither did anyone else on the staff of the County Down

Spectator. My editor, the redoubtable Annie Roycroft, would not have dreamt of employing a graduate. She had nothing against further education - but by the time students had finished college they were too old for her purposes, having spent three or four years learning things that were of no value to a local newspaper.

In the late 1960s very few people went to universities which were almost the only form of higher education available.

It wasn’t a question of ability - I went to a grammar school and had reasonable marks in the northern equivalent of the Leaving Cert. Nor was cost an issue for, unlike today, the UK system was then very generous to undergraduates.

But universities offered no help to me in pursuing the career I had chosen. The same went for most of my friends.

Universities were for would-be doctors, lawyers, engineers and the like. If you didn’t need what they taught, you didn’t go there.

Today, it seems as if almost everyone goes from secondary school to some form of higher education. Hundreds of courses have been flagged by the CAO over the last couple of weeks.

When they have achieved their degree many students will take a further course, perhaps do a Masters, maybe even a PhD. They will be well into their twenties when they go looking for a job and, for many employers, they will have nothing more to offer than I did at the age of 18.

Their expectations will be higher, however. They will expect more pay and to be given more responsible tasks, although they won’t be equipped for the work and, therefore, will not deserve the pay.

I sound like some antediluvian relic, I know. But I believe there is a real problem here. Because, contrary to impression, not everyone does go on to third level - and those who do not are at a disadvantage in the labour market. They are being kept out of jobs, for which

they may be ideal, because they lack qualifications that are completely unnecessary for those jobs.

It is now next to impossible to get into journalism without a degree, which must be keeping a lot of talented but nonacademic youngsters out of the business.

Other trades are also suffering.

I spent a little time last week with a niece and some of her friends who were all heading for third level colleges. One wanted to be a chef, another fancied working as a tour guide.

Neither of these careers should need a third level qualification but there are courses, with silly names, tailored to suit both. And soon, no one will get these jobs unless they have a meaningless certificate from one of these courses.

Apprenticeships let young people learn on the job and earn a little money at the same time.

They don’t suit every line of work but they suited me and I will be very happy if they really do make a comeback.

Wild and Free?

book of the week

with Justin Ivory

rewind

by Catherine Ryan Howard Sign at Kilmacurragh Gardens in Co. Wicklow (Photo Justin Ivory) It is the time of year when Mother Nature opens her larder door to her smorgasbord bounty of fruit, nuts, berries and fungi (mushrooms to you and me!). This natural Autumn harvest gives our wildlife one last chance to fuel and bulk up before hitting the lean times of Winter.

How our wildlife gets to feed this time of year can make the difference between making it through to Spring or not. The difference between life and death.

From the bestselling, multiple prize-shortlisted novelist Catherine Ryan Howard comes an explosive story about a twisted voyeur and a terrible crime. Andrew, the manager of Shanamore Holiday Cottages, watches his only guest via a hidden camera in her room. One night the unthinkable happens: a shadowy figure emerges onscreen, kills her and destroys the camera. But who is the murderer? Natalie wishes she’d stayed at home as soon as she arrives in the wintry isolation of Shanamore.

There’s something creepy about the manager.

She wants to leave, but she can’t - not until she’s found what she’s looking for.

Blackberries ripening – let’s leave them for our wildlife (Photo Justin Ivory) At the same time in recent years the concepts of Wild Food and Wild Foraging have become popular and trendy.

The appeal is obvious. A chance to get outdoors and connect with nature, gain more knowledge of the natural world and get free food into the bargain. Sounds perfect and harmless. The reality might be very different though.

We are all aware at this stage that planet Earth is in the midst of a human induced Climate Crisis and Biodiversity Crisis.

With our wildlife under so much pressure from loss of habitat, persecution, the effects of pollution and climate change – the last thing it needs is us taking from its everdwindling food sources.

Knowledge of the natural world and the uses of plants is a good thing, but with knowledge comes responsibility.

Some practitioners will advocate sustainable foraging i.e. only picking one in 3 or 1 in 5 plants. That becomes meaningless if you have many people foraging in the same area. It will quickly become depleted even if applying sustainable rules.

So for the sake of our wildlife and our forests (which come under threat if too many mushrooms and fungi are taken) leave the wild food where it belongs - in the wild.

Jack Cunningham Productions are proud to present the legendary tale of two rival vaudevillian murderesses who find themselves locked up in Cook County Jail. Full of the glitz and glam of the 1920s, Chicago is criminally good. Juxtaposing violence with glamour, love with lust, darkness with bold, bright show lights, Roxie Hart must work her way through the devilish story to become a star, whereas Velma Kelly is fighting to reclaim this status after a fall from grace.

Nature activist and reformed landscape designer Mary Reynolds says the time for gardens is gone and is asking people to give their gardens back to nature. We are in a crisis and we have to embrace a new world.

Everything must change. The more biodiversity you can establish, the more complex a food web that is restored. The less biodiversity, the weaker an ecosystem. Change the way you think as a gardener. Stop fighting nature and instead encourage weeds, encourage untidiness, encourage life to return.

Eimear Reidy create a haunting riddle that will entertain, intrigue and unsettle the spectator all at once, and linger long after the lights come down, an unflinching story of collusion in abuse, and the price that has to be paid for remaining silent.

A lofty night at Garter Lane

We’re heading into a very busy few months at Garter Lane and as always your help is greatly appreciated! All you knead for a loafly night at the theatre.

If you’re looking for something very different in your local theatres this Harvest Festival, you’ll have to get yourself down to Arán & Im in

Garter Lane on Saturday, September 7 at 8pm. Arán & Im is a theatrical performance in which Manchán Magan bakes sourdough bread for 70 minutes while offering insights into the wonders of the Irish language – exploring potent words of landscape, terms of intuition and insight, and the many phrases that bring to life the mysterious

glory of our natural world.

Originally produced in association with the Abbey Theatre and is brought to Waterford as a special treat for all those attending the Harvest Festival.

Tickets are €14 (€12 concession) but are limited to 50 for maximum enjoyment of the show.

For tickets and more details, see www.garterlane.ie

A Line of O’Kane

CATCH Deirdre O’Kane’s brand new stand up show, A Line of O’Kane, on Friday 30th August at the Theatre Royal.

Fresh from a standing ovationworthy set at All Together Now’s comedy stage, Deirdre O’Kane is itching to get back to Waterford. “I hadn’t been in ages and the festival trip reminded me how much I love playing here. Waterford audiences are the best plus I didn’t get a chance to pick up my favourite local delicacy so I’m planning on getting in early on the 30th so I don’t miss out on my traditional blaa this time around!”

One of the country’s favourite comics, Deirdre has really hit her stride recently following a return to stand-up comedy in 2017; charting her glittering turn as a finalist on Dancing with the Stars, the sell out new show has sold out across the country and is a straight-talk-

ing look at twelve frantic months in the life of this tango-tripping, family-minding, telly-making, house-moving, comedy dynamo.

Tickets are selling fast so comedy fans are encouraged to book early for A Line of O’Kane at the Theatre Royal on Friday, August 30th @ 8pm. Tickets: €21 from 051-874402 www.theatreroyal.ie

Chicago - The Musical Jack Cunningham Productions are proud to present the legendary tale of two rival vaude villian murderesses who find themselves locked up in Cook County Jail.

Full of the glitz and glam of the 1920s, Chicago is criminally good. Juxtaposing violence with glamour, love with lust, darkness with bold, bright show lights, Roxie Hart must work her way through the devilish story to become a star, whereas Velma Kelly

is fighting to reclaim this status after a fall from grace. Shining a spotlight onto corruption and celebrity, Jack Cunningham Productions cannot wait to blind you with these showtunes.

Wednesday September 11th – Saturday September 14th Performances at 8pm Nightly Garter Lane Arts Centre. Tickets (€20 – incl. booking fee) available at Garter Lane: (051) 855038 and www.garterlane.ie.

In Loving Memory

11thAnniversary JOHN FITZPATRICK

Acknowledgement Gerard John Rea

Unseen and unheard but always near, So loved, so missed, so very dear

1st Anniversary & Birthday Remembrance Nicholas BOWMAN

- From your loving daughter Rose Every day in some small way, Thoughts of you come my way, Simple words but very true, I always think and pray for you.

- Still missed by your grand daughter Natalie There is not a day goes by you’re not thought of, Night falls, day breaks, your presence is always felt, We mourn you still and remember you fondly, You helped so much when we needed, For that we will always be grateful, We hope you are at peace.

- Never forgotten by your son John, his partner Sarah and your grandson Matthew and granddaughter Amelia Those we love don’t go away, They walk beside us every day, unseen, unheard but always near, Still loved, still missed, but very dear.

If memories bring us closer, Then we are never far apart, God has you in his keeping We have you in our hearts.

- Loved and missed always by your daughter Catherine son in law Tom, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

In loving memory of Nicholas Bowman, late of Ferndale, whose 1st anniversary occurs on 24th August, and whose birthday occured on 15th August.

It’s only here without you, I miss you more each day, For life is not the same to me, Since you were called away, To your resting place we visit, Place flowers there with care, But no one know our heartache, When we turn and leave you there.

- From your loving wife Mary.

We held your hand that day, We knew we would soon part, We watched you slowly slip away, but you never leave our hearts, Time may hide the sadness, Like a smile can hide a tear, But memories last forever, For one we loved so dear.

- Love, Ann, Nicola and Ava What we’d give if we could say, Hello Dad, in the same old way, To hear your voice and see your smile, To sit with you and chat a while, So if you have a father, Cherish him with care, For you’ll never know the heartache, Till you see his vacant chair.

- From Mark and Ben

14th Anniversary TONY GRIFFIN

The face we love is missing, The voice we love is still, The hands that did so much for us, Are resting as Gods will, You never failed to do your best, Your heart was true and tender, You simply lived for those you loved, And those you loved remember.

-Sadly missed by your daughter Mary and her husband Frankie.

Pick a bunch of flowers Lord, From your garden where our grandad has gone, Place a kiss upon his cheek, And tell him who it’s from.

- Remembered by your grandson Thomas and granddaughter Orla Novena to the Sacred Heart Dear Heart of Jesus, in the past I have asked for many favours, this time I ask for this one special favour (mention favour).

Take it Dear Jesus and place it within Your own broken heart, where Your Father sees it. Then in His merciful eyes it will become Your favour and not mine. Say this prayer for 3 days. Promise publication and favour will be granted.

Never known to fail. E.A.P.

Sweet victory by the Blues Waterford FC made the long trip to Donegal last Saturday and came away with a two nil win over Glengad United at Maginn Park.

Goals from Michael O’Connor

by Paul Eliott and Cory Galwin saw the Blues progress to the last eight of the FAI Cup. The Blues started on the front foot and put the hosts under intense pressure during the opening stages but the home team stood firm.

Cory Galvin was the first to truly test Glengad keeper Kevin McLaughlin with a close range effort, the keeper saved well but from the rebound Galvin could only find the side netting.

Michael O’Connor was next to test his luck in close range but his drive cleared the crossBlues striker Walter Figueira on the bar. Stephen McLaughlin and attack against Glengad United in the Terence Doherty combined FAI Cup at Maginn Park last Saturday. well to create Glengad’s first

Soccer

opportunity on the 20 minute mark,but.Doherty shot high and wide.

On the half hour mark the Blues went close to finding the net. Cory Galvin found space in the area and his powerful strike took a slight deflection off Seamus Doherty before rebounding off the post. Waterford continued to press and struck the woodwork again a minute later, Sam Bone fired in a shot from twenty five yards which McLaughlin tipped on the bar.

Galvin and O’Connor had half chances as the first half neared its end, both from close range but neither could find the net.

The second half saw the blues go on the all out attack but Glengad pulled everybody back in defence to frustrate the visitors. Michael O’Connor went close with a header on the hour mark, Georgie Poynton swung in a corner from the right but O’Connor headed over the top.

The home team held out until the 70th minute, Shane Duggan struck a free kick on the

edge of the box, it struck John G McLaughlin and looped high in the air and the ball into the path of O’Connor, his strike from 16 yards was good enough to beat McLaughlin and find the far corner of the net. Glengad replied with a decent chance, Stephen McLaughlin and Terence Doherty again combining well, but the shot by Doherty was tame, allowing Matthew Connor to save.

The Blues wrapped up the win with a late goal from Cory Galvin, Glengad defender Stephen McLaughlin his pass was cut out by Georgie Poyton who slipped a clever pass into the run of Galvin and took on the home defence before shooting passed the home keeper..

Glengad had a late opportunity to score from a goalmouth scramble but Matthew Connor dive to his left to save.

The Blues boss Alan Reynolds was happy with the result and it gives the Blues a glamour tie in the quater - finals a home draw against Dundalk.

It’s all go for the hurling semis

The quarter finals of the JJ Kavanagh Senior Hurling Championship and the draw for the semi-finals were completed last weekend.

The opening game saw Roanmore come through a close encounter before getting the better of Ballyduff Upper on a 2-13 to 2-11 scoreline. A Gavin O’Brien point and an Emmet O’Toole goal saw the city side into an early lead.

Eoghan Murray by the kept BallyVillager duff in touch with a goal and some excellent points while Gavin O’Brien was unerring for Roanmore. An Eoin Madigan goal saw the winners ahead 2-8 to 1-6 at the break.

The West Waterford side came out with renewed vigour for the second half with Eoghan and Conor Murray driving the team forward. However the goal only arrived arrived late on courtesy of Shane Kearney.

Again an O’Brien point saw the city over the line and into the last four.

GAA

PASSAGE THROUGH Passage also confirmed their place in the last four draw

with a convincing 2-19 to 0-15 win over Tallow. The sides were level 0-5 apiece midway through the opening half but a Thomas Connors goal edged the men from the fishing village into a 1-8/0-9 halftime lead.

The second half opened with a second goal for Passage from Owen Connors and with Killian Fitzgerald adding points they moved clear to win.

SION BACK IN QUARTERS Regular quarter finalists Mount Sion are again in contention after a 1-20 to 0-17 win over Clonea. Welcoming back Austin Gleeson the monastery side had an early Jack Meaney goal to lead 1-8/0-8 at the break.

Clonea will be disappointed not to have been on parity as they missed a penalty midway through the half and they also lost Martin Scurry to a double booking.

With Gleeson in superb form Mount Sion edged clear late in the game and that sees their name “in the hat”.

DUNGARVAN BACK ON An early Patrick Curran goal allied to a fifteen point haul from Ryan Donnelly saw Dungarvan safely through

against Fourmilewater who were forced to field without Jamie Barron. The winners led 1-12 to 1-9 at the break, the Fourmilewater goal from Shane Ryan. The Ballymac club did get a goal from Tom Barron in the second half but the Old Boro were clear at that stage.

DRAW The draw for the quarter finals saw some mouthwatering ties.Abbeyside versus Dungarvan, Passage versus Ballygunner, Lismore versus Mount Sion, De La Salle versus Roanmore. Local rivalry at it’s best.
