A picture
paints a thousand words they say and so the Veteran Players collection
of local photographs Golden Memories sold out to within a week
of arriving on the market and they know many of you were disappointed
and unable to get it. They are also heartened by the number of
people who offered photos for any further publication. So, the
inevitable decision has been made to publish another collection
of photos. If you have photos which will jog the memories of
readers and remind them of events now passed, they would love
to hear from you.

Dog
Owners – Please
Comply
There has been an increase in dog fouling in the village
of Clonegal. Clonegal Tidy Village Association asks dog owners
to restrain their dogs and not allow them roam freely through
the village. Also, dog owners who walk their dogs in the village
are asked to pick up after their dogs. Unfortunately, dog fouling
has occurred on graves and wreaths in the Cemetery on the Tullow
Road. Everybody realizes that this is very upsetting for families
who have loved ones buried in the Cemetery. Please ensure dogs
do not enter the Graveyard. Dog litter is toxic and is very
dangerous particularly to children. In the interest of health
and safety, please keep Clonegal Village and the Cemetery free
of dog fouling.
