Good Morning and Welcome,

To issue No.72. It’s crept up on me this week. So as I’m late already..

South Kerry by the numbers

  • 105: Properties are for Sale across South Kerry

  • 80: Domestic.

  • 25: Commercial.

*slow week for numbers.

First, a word from this week’s sponsor

This week's sponsor is The Festival of Botanical Colours: think gorgeous, natural colours, lots of woolly goodness, and, of course, the opportunity to get some hands on experience at dyeing and nature projects. Tickets here

And Another

Next Friday, Tech Amergin, Waterville. You can join a Restorative Yoga Workshop with Live Cello. Sorry, You will join a Restorative Yoga Workshop with Live Cello. Book here

*There may have been some artificial assistance in the above poster. Whatever you do. Do not look at the hands.

Have you seen this Music Video?

It’s not every day you get to see a popstar lepping about in South Kerry, but you can today, here

Fancy a Conversation about Conservation?

Join the Community Conversation workshop in South Kerry on 25th September in Brú na Dromoda 6.30-8.30pm. Participants can discuss their personal feelings, insights, concerns and hopes for nature restoration in their area. On Friday 26th you are invited to visit a site near Caragh Lake, adjacent to the Killorglin Campus of Kerry College, that Hometree Charity has recently purchased. Guided by Ray Ó Foghlú and Rob Fell, we will explore the challenges and potential for nature restoration in Ireland's uplands. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to join this conversation. If you can't attend, there is also an online survey and there will be webinars in late October in Irish and English. All scheduled events are listed on www.restorenature.ie.

Best Broadband in South Kerry?

This is now with a panel of independent adjudicators* and the full results will be available next week.

*May be an excuse.

It’s The Signs of South Kerry 🎺🎺🎺

Now, it might not look easy, but in the words of David Frost, “the clues are there…” (I think it’s been in before, too) Where is it?

Congratulations to last week’s winners

Well done to the anonymous individuals who correctly identified ‘Beyond The Fringe’ in Cahersiveen last week. You should claim your glory.
