The National Brown bread Making Competition sponsored by Aldi
Don’t be fooled by the smiles and pleasantries.
This is crumb-strewn domestic drama of the highest quality.
Joanne writes:
“Who says there isn’t pride in baking a brown bread…note the emotions of our 8 finalists who now head to the Aldi tent of the National Ploughing Championships [next month].
To celebrate we have a €100 voucher ( yes ONE HUNDRED EUROS) for Aldi (which you may spend on brown bread or other items at any Aldi store). Just complete this sentence. ‘Irish brown bread is special because_________'”

…and win the All-Ireland Hurling Final.
Galway County Cllr Michael Fahy, an Independent, calls for a ban on foreign workers in relation to the construction of the Gort to Tuam motorway.
From this week’s Connacht Tribune:
The five hundred jobs that are to be created during the construction of the Gort to Tuam motorway should be given to Galway workers . . . and not foreigners.
It has been argued that hurling teams in South Galway are decimated through emigration and there was a need to attract these hurlers back.
But Cllr. Michael Fahy emphasised that he had nothing against people from Poland, Latvia or Lithuania.
“The point I am making is that they should go home and try and get jobs in their own countries.
“We are currently in a crisis situation in County Galway. We haven’t enough jobs for our own people.
“It is 26 years since we won an All-Ireland hurling title and the main reason is that some of our best hurlers and workers are living abroad”, Cllr. Michael Fahy added.

“The idea just came to mind one day, as a cheesy, but funny all the same way of showing some coolness. It’s pretty simple really, but it made me chuckle.

I also work as designer for the quarterly short story e-journal The South Circular and I’m part of a collective of designers called Lone Rangers. The members of Lone Rangers all work on our own, as freelancers or in house designers, and we come together to give advice, swap information, collaborate on projects and generally act as a bit of a sounding board….”
