Bright ideas for clueless
Christmas shoppers
YOU'VE left it late, very late - and you've still not got all your
Christmas presents. And you simply haven't a Scooby Doo what to
get the family's resident sports nut. Well, worry yourself not, for
below are some last-minute sporty gift ideas for the hard of think-
ing that should make a mockery of the old aphorism that money
can't buy you love.
1. Give it some juice
Perhaps the gift you're looking is for a person who is not particu-
larly sporty. You can still buy them into the health kick though by
giving them a juicer. These things vary greatly in price and func-
tion, but all the recipient then has to do is add fruit and or vegeta-
bles and they can stave off ill-health with multi-vitamin drinks the
year round. And it'll make you feel good just wrapping it up.
2. eBay away!
Searching for that classic 1970s Gareth Edwards Wales strip?
Desperately need a spike from Steve Ovett's Moscow running
shoe? Fancy bidding for Muhammad Ali's boxer shorts? Well then
this online auction is the place for you: www.ebay.ie
3. Get on your bike
Traffic jams, train delays, and anger. Lots of raw, vicious, unrelent-
ing anger. Sound familiar? Well, there is an alternative to your
stress-levels receiving their daily health-wrecking top-up on the
journey to work: the humble bike.
4. Book it
A book is always a safe bet when all else fails. And this lot are all
under €25. Books are available in all good books shops.
Perhaps the best sports book of the year is Bill Borrow's unofficial
biography of snooker loopy Alex Higgins: The Hurricane. It’s a
thoroughly entertaining story of how a flawed genius squandered
millions and recently ended up in a hostel for the homeless. And
without most of his teeth.
It's also been a year for ghost-written 'autobiographies', with
Niall Quinn's effort, Niall Quinn: The Autobiography and that of
his Irish team-mate Roy Keane, entitled Keane, among the best. At
least Mike Atherton bothered to pen his own: Opening Up.
5. Gym riddle
'Tis the season to be jolly, we're told, which is a convenient euphe-
mism for eating and drinking ourselves into oblivion until we step
into the annual confessional of New Year's resolutions and decide
we need to do some exercise. The massive swell in our waistlines
thus sees a massive swell in gym memberships. Why not beat the
January scales by signing your loved one up for membership of a
health club?
6. Spa humbug!
Christmas is a stressful time of year. All the family in one house
arguing over what rubbish to watch on the telly. All that food to
serve up, and then serve up again and again. People go to work in
the New Year for a rest. But wouldn't it be so much better to have
life's stresses and strains rubbed off at a deluxe spa hotel? Of
course it would. Nothing takes the strain but your credit card.
7. Toy racer
At barely the size of a matchbox, the Mini Racer is the smallest
radio-controlled car in the world, so you can set up a grand prix
track in your office. And that, ladies and gentleman, is sport. If
nothing else, it'll make the beneficiary feel like a giant.

 CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN
Stay Safe in the
Kitchen this Christmas
ARE you sure you know how to prepare your turkey this
Christmas? The Food Standards Agency says many of us
don't and poor preparation and cooking can lead to food poi-
soning.
December is the worst month of the year for food poison-
ing. One in five of all cases can be traced back to under-
cooked poultry such as chicken or turkey. So here are some
of the things the FSA wants to warn against:
- Don't cook the stuffing inside the turkey. This can prevent
either from cooking through properly, so they should be
cooked separately instead.
- Do not wash the turkey before cooking: this can spread
bacteria around the kitchen and lead to cross-contamination.
Correct cooking will kill all bacteria.
- Ideally a frozen turkey should be defrosted in the fridge.
Two thirds of people defrost at room temperature but again
this can cause problems.
- Cook your turkey for 18 to 20 minutes per pound in
weight. An undercooked turkey can result in food poisining.

Christmas dinner is the biggest meal many of us will cook.

We're often preparing meals that we wouldn't normally
make - and we frequently buy more food than we can store
in the fridge.
The FSA’s head of microbiology says, "The ad campaign
encourages people to think about how to prepare, cook and
eat safely, most food poisoning incidents are easily avoided
and with a little bit of extra thought everybody can enjoy the
festive season."
One of the problems is catering for higher numbers, the
average Christmas cook will be serving dinner for at least
seven people. And we all seem to be guilty of buying a big-
ger turkey than necessary, the average weight of the
Christmas bird is 12 pounds and that's enough to feed up to
18 people, but however big it is, you should use up all left-
overs within 48 hours.
But the agency's advice is simple: plan a realistic amount
of food, store raw meat in the bottom of your fridge, wash
utensils used on raw meat and make sure the bird is fully
thawed and cooked thoroughly to ensure you stay healthy
this Christmas.

CARE AND REPAIR - NEW DIY SERVICE
LAUNCHED FOR OLDER PEOPLE IN YOUGHAL
Cumann na Daoine is delighted to announce the launch of a new
Care and Repair project to support older people living in Youghal.
At the heart of the Care and Repair programme is a pool of local
handymen, all of whom have volunteered their time to carry out
small DIY jobs and other minor tasks in the home and garden for
elderly people in Youghal.
If you are aged 65 years or over, and living in Youghal, why not
avail of this new service. Just ring Cumann na Daoine on 91900
with details of the work needed, and one of our volunteers will be
in touch. Typicals jobs might be minor gardening; minor home
decorating, tacking down carpets; changing plugs, fuses and light
bulbs; installing security locks and chains; hanging curtains; and
installing domestic smoke alarms. Volunteers are matched to jobs
that suit their skills. They will always come in pairs at a pre-
arranged time and will carry identification. The service is free.
The only charge is for materials needed for the job (eg paint, bulbs
etc).
Care and Repair has been developed by Age Action Ireland in
partnership with Irish Life, as a way of creating new services of
value to older people in Ireland and helping them to live full, inde-
pendent and satisfying lives for as long as they wish in their own
homes. The scheme has been running in Cork City for some time
and Age Action staff have provided advice and support to Youghal
volunteers in developing a scheme for Youghal. Gerry Loughrey,
Head of Corporate Responsibility, Irish Life, said "Irish Life are
very proud to be associated with the Care and Repair Programme
nationally and we wish the Youghal group all the very best with
their initiative."

 YOUGHAL TOWN COUNCIL MEETING NOVEMBER 2010
By Christy Parker
Report of the Town Clerk on Matters Arising from the Monthly
Meeting of Youghal Town Council held on 12th Oct 2010.
Youghal Eco Boardwalk:
Failte Ireland have approved a grant of €137,513 towards the deliv-
ery of the Youghal Eco Boardwalk which represents Phase 1 of the
development of a coastal walking route. It will see the construction
of a 395m walk along the sea front in front of the Claycastle dune.
The existing route is already popular among recreational walkers
and tourists visiting the Town. At present much of the walk is on the
sand beach itself, which represents problems for users and limits the
window of use. It is envisaged that this Project will in time form
part of a larger walk which will stretch from Youghal Town Centre
to Redbarn, Youghal a total distance of 1,926m. This will provide
an important tourism function going forward linking a number of
key tourism assets together such as The Quality Hotel and Holiday
Village, Beach Area, Swimming Pool and Leisure Complex, Perks
Amusement Centre and the Town Centre. The Council's intention is
that, on the entire completion, this route will form part of the
National Coastal Walking Route.
Youghal Railway Station: I met with Mr. A.J. Cronin of Iarnroid
Eireann on Wednesday 30th October last to discuss solutions to a
number of issues relating to the Youghal Site. Mr. Cronin has
agreed on behalf of Iarnroid Eireann to undertake the following:
- A complete clean up of the site removing litter, overgrown vege-
tation etc. over the winter period.
- Remedial action to repair and replace the missing wooden fence
adjacent to the public car park will be attended to without delay.
(Temporary interim measure).
- Replace the existing boundary wooden fence with a new palisade
fence. The steps to securing necessary funding and completing the
procurement process has begun and is expected to take approxi-
mately four months.
- Repair the former signal cabin roof and make secure its boundary
with palisade fencing..
The meeting was preceded by a presentation from Ned Brennan,
chairman of Youghal Tidy Towns Committee. Mr Brennan thanked
the town council for its ongoing support and averred to the commit-
tee’s achievements over the past year and its aspirations and plans
for the future. See elsewhere in this issue for a synopsis of his
report.
Cllr Barbara Murray made some critical observations regarding the
executive of Cork County Council’s contribution towards certain
aspects of town tidiness, aka approach roads, grass cutting, etc. She
asked how the county council could in its wisdom deploy two extra
workers to the landfill at a time when its tonnage was at an all-time
low, while the entrances to the town were dilapidating through lack
of manpower. Having listened attentively, Town Manager Patricia
Power said she would sit in on a meeting to be arranged early next
spring between Youghal Tidy Towns committee and the Cork
County Council’s area office, whereby specific requirements of the
committee could be aired.
The town manager believed that the county council was making
steady progress in resolving the problem of derelict sites, although
the seemingly imminent liquidation of the proprietors of the former
Murray’s Kitchen site posed a difficult challenge regarding that par-
ticular eyesore.
Votes of Congratulations Cllr Sandra McLellan congratulated Pa
O’Shea on winning a silver medal at the World Military Boxing
Championships recently. She asked that he be included in the coun-
cils’ bi-annual awards night ceremony.
Cllr Murray paid tribute to playwright and theatre director Sean
O’Neill and the Youghal Theatre Company for the highly success-
ful production of Playboy of the Western World at the Walter
Raleigh Hotel. “It was absolutely superb, the set was fantastic and
it was extremely well attended, “she observed. Cllr Murray also
congratulated the town clerk and the staff of the town and county
councils on the operation of a Youghal flood plan. Initiated through
a local group in Catherine Street, the plan was given its first outing
during a recent storm warning that ultimately failed to live up to its
billing. “It was something of a dry run,” noted Cllr Murray with
unintended irony, “but it worked very well. The lines of communi-
cation were excellent, text messages went out as planned and every-
one knew what was happening regarding sandbags and other mat-
ters.”
Mayor Mary Linehan Foley offered belated congratulations to the
Team Youghal cyclists on their successful ‘Race Around Ireland’
fund raising on behalf of the Emer Casey Fund last September. She
said a larger exploit involving an American excursion was in the
pipeline. The mayor also congratulated artist Pauline Neville for her
recent, successful exhibition in the Mall Arts Centre. She extended
plaudits to Michael Hackett on the launch of his book ‘Sars,’ adding
that he was keeping the history of Youghal alive for many people,
especially younger generations, who would otherwise be unaware
of the rich content. The mayor also echoed Cllr Murray’s senti-
ments regarding council staff and the storm plan.
Town Foreman’s report Cllr Liam Burke said light no. 133 at
North Main Street was out. He asked if the engineer had seen the
road markings at the junction of Seafield Road and Kilcoran Road,
where great danger persisted. The councillor said the path leading
to Ardan na Mara was very slippery due to algae and finished by
asking whether the diving rocks report was yet available, to which
there was no response.
Cllr Eoin Coyne drew attention to illegal dumping on the Jail Steps,
noting it was not the first time it had been mentioned in the cham-
ber. He asked if the mobile CCTV was back in town, to which the
town clerk said he wasn’t going to comment as it could impede
detections. The councillor also repeated a request from September
that a tree at the graveyard be trimmed.
Cllr Sammy Revins said the newly surfaced road at Raheen Park
had “gone green” and slippery with moss and was particularly dan-
gerous for elderly people.
Rats Cllr McLellan described illegal dumping at the Jail Steps as
“really serious,” and claimed “hundreds and hundreds” of rubbish
bags had been dumped illegally over a lengthy period. She said rat
infestation was now prevalent, and three rodents had been seen
simultaneously on the steps recently. “You shouldn’t see that on a
tourist walkway,” she pleaded.
Cllr Murray asked if the bin at the greyhound track –which had
been burned out- was to be replaced. She drew attention to a ‘dan-
gerous bend’ sign at the tennis court that was green and badly need-
ed washing and also warned that the wind had turned a number of
signs to face the wrong way, including one at Nealon’s Quay.
Cllr Michael Beecher suggested a CCTV camera be placed perma-
nently at the Jail Steps to counter illegal dumping. He asked that
graffiti be cleared from a number of buildings and said dog fouling
was a persistent problem, especially at weekends when the
litter/dog warden was off duty. He requested that the owners of a
property be asked in writing to remove ivy that was intruding into
the adjacent graveyard.
Cllr Michelle Hennessy said “Fr. O’Neill is completely green” in
reference to a statue in the ’98 Memorial Park, (appropriately
known as Green Park.) Other statues were in a similar state at the
location, while bars in the bandstand needed replacing. The coun-
cillor said the new car park byelaws had been implemented since
November 1st but people remained unaware of them. She was told
that the relevant signage had to be erected before they could be
implemented.
Mayor Linehan Foley repeated that the ‘dangerous bend’ sign need-
ed cleaning and a sign at Tides/McCurtainstown was facing the
wrong way.
Town engineer Paul Murray’s report arising from October’s
meeting Town engineer Paul Murray said road repairs had taken
place at Ballyclamsey, the road liners were due in town and would
address the problem at Seafield Rd. A contractor had been appoint-
ed to complete footpath works at the intersection of New Catherine
Street and Grattan Street. Approximately 1,000 sandbags had been
provided to the public prior to the previous weekend’s flood alert,
with county council staff working late Friday and early Saturday
morning. Bags were delivered when elderly people rang requesting
them. He said Cork County Council wished to point out that the
propriety flood barrier, which is placed across a doorway, is the best

YOUGHAL TOWN COUNCIL MEETING NOVEMBER 2010
that the propriety flood barrier, which is placed across a doorway, is
the best option. The Youghal water reservoir is currently being
cleaned out, using underwater robotic cleaning system, he proceed-
ed, while work was ongoing at replacing filter sand at Boola water-
works. The road contractor was expected to fix a hole at Raheen
Road. Mr. Murray then said that it may have appeared from
October’s meeting that access to private land at the front strand was
problematic. “We have set up a communication system with the
landowner to gain access to the main sewer when required and this
is working satisfactorily,” explained.
County Council Items: Cllr Revins said “lethal” potholes near
Copperally needed filling, while “a mighty crater” was evident at
Summerdale Lawn. Cllr McLellan asked that the town engineer
“touch base” with councillors when the road liners come to town as
they each had their own issues. Mr Murray advised submitting a
written list to him.
Bins, dogs and water
Cllr Murray asked that a ‘stop’ or ‘yield’ sign be erected temporari-
ly at the Seafield junction until the road liners arrived. She had met
someone who had very narrowly avoided an accident and it would
be “a fright to God” if one occurred in the interim. The engineer
agreed to install a few bollards. Cllr Murray advocated removing the
bins at Claycastle car park (due to misuse and abuse) and wanted the
poop bins emptied twice weekly on behalf of dog owners. She won-
dered if Cork County Council might employ the same CCTV oper-
ator as was serving the town council and was informed it was being
considered. Cllr Murray said the heather at the Bretton Road round-
about needed trimming before asking if anything could be done to
alleviate ponding near Claycastle caravan park. “There is no foot-
path and people have to go on the road but with excessive rainfall
the water meets in the middle. I know it’s a difficult problem, with
the levels and the drains filling up quickly on either side,” she
explained.
Cllr Beecher said a low grate at Cock and Bull fills with leaves etc,
causing flooding in heavy rain and he sought a better system. The
engineer said it was on his list. In a humorous aside, the mayor
asked whether the address Cock and Bull was named after Cllr
Beecher, prompting Cllr Revins to inquire as to which one he repre-
sented. When the laughter had subsided and Cllr Beecher’s com-
plexion had returned to normal, the councillor proceeded with his
political objectives, insisting that he wanted “action not just
answers” in regard to the ongoing foul odours emanating from the
landfill vicinity.
Cllr Hennessy asked when the footpath at Raheen Road would be
completed. The town clerk said it would have to be re-tendered as
the contractor was emigrating. The councillor requested a solution
to severe ponding at the entrance to Springfield Court.
Outfall pipe debacle Cllr Burke had a notion that the new valve
recently installed at the front strand outfall pipe was proving inade-
quate as he had seen a JCB working there to remove blockage. He
was correct. The town engineer revealed he was meeting a senior
colleague from Cork County Council that very afternoon to discuss
the issue.
Cue a mini-debate in which the lengthy saga of Cork County
Council’s struggles with various valves and stop-gap measures
across several years. “How much is it costing?” asked Cllr Beecher
in vain. “There was supposed to be a report on that,” reminded Cllr
Murray, without response. “Surely the time has come for County
Hall to admit that the only solution, as recommended some time ago,
is to extend the outfall,” demanded Cllr Burke. Mr. Murray conced-
ed that the county council senior executive engineer was now of the
same opinion.
Town Manager Patricia Power said the county council had been try-
ing to having to apply for a foreshore licence and that the most
recent failed valve initiative had worked in many other situations.
Extension would now be seriously considered. Cllr Murray won-
dered if the extension was not part of the plan for the town’s main
drainage scheme and she also advised that the council workers on
the ground who knew and dealt with the issue be consulted. The
town engineer said this was normal practice.
Groyns Cllr Murray then cited concerns that the extension would
prevent the surplus water from being fully emitted due to its prox-
imity to incoming tides. Furthermore, a lack of adequate groynes
was causing a strong movement of sands and one or two groynes
would have to be installed to prevent this. The council said it would
await a report from the engineer at December’s meeting. “These
stop gap solutions are a huge waste of public money,” concluded
Cllr Burke accurately, in what might be termed parting kick in the
groyne to Cork County Council.
Cllr Coyne wondered if it was pointless to ask whither the broken
footpaths at Dr Kennedy’s Place, given that Cllr Burke had been
raising the issue since he (Cllr Coyne) was a schoolboy (which was
not too long ago in fairness). He had seen an elderly person trip there
recently. “It will be included in a survey he is conducting,” Cllr
McLellan interceded. Mayor Linehan Foley warned that some of the
groynes in the strand were sharp “like teeth and deadly dangerous”
and she asked that the engineer have a look at them.
Mayor’s Business The mayor said she was going to be away for a
week and would delegate her duties to her deputy Cllr Eoin Coyne.
She also referred to a ‘Race Across America’ project being planned
for next summer by Team Youghal cyclists on behalf of the Emer
Casey Foundation. Further and detailed information was contained
in brochure distributed to the members. The mayor said the group’s
increasing profile was “putting Youghal on the map” and urged the
council to offer whatever financial or other support that could be
apportioned. There was general consensus that what could be done
in testing times would be done. “Some of them are not spring chick-
ens and this is a stamina test so fair play to them,” observed the
mayor admiringly.
Heritage Island Marketing and Promotional Plan 2011 Town
Clerk Liam Ryan explained that Youghal’s membership of Heritage
Island meant the town would be promoted through the following
channels: Inclusion in Ireland Visitor Attractions Guide, inclusion in
the Group Organisers Manual, promotion via web and email strate-
gy, inclusion in Heritage Island online booking engine, promotion at
20 tourism and lifestyle shows, Heritage Island iPhone app &
mobile marketing, inclusion in Heritage Island Social & Media
channels and party to Heritage Island’s tourism partners, seminars,
media and familiarisation trips.
In a secondary report, Mr. Ryan revealed that two grant applications
had been made to the Heritage Council for (a) St. Mary’s Collegiate
Church Graveyard Trail –Final Phase and (b) Conservation and
Management Plan for St. Mary’s Graveyard, Youghal:
Cork County Council Draft Beach Bye laws for Public
Consultation The town clerk explained that this document erro-
neously includes Youghal’s front strand in its jurisdiction whereas
Youghal Town Council has its own beach bye-law legislation. The
new laws will be applicable to Claycastle, Redbarn and Pilmore
however. Submissions are being accepted up to December 10th next
at the Secretary of the Coastal Management Committee at Cork
County Council.
Cork County Council -Corporate Plan 2010-2014 Of note in ref-
erence to this item is the inclusion of the government’s impending
white paper to abolish town councils. Cllr Revins said that such a
move would be challenged on the ground being anti-EU policy. “It
flies in the face of democracy,” observed the town clerk. “As a
Fianna Fail councillor I think it’s time this government stepped back
and let someone else run the country. It’s a disgrace what they are
doing and I’m sick of them,” commented Cllr Revins unexpectedly.
Notice of Proposed Amendments to the Draft Waterford County
Development Plan 2011-2017 Copies of this document are avail-
able at Youghal Town Council’s offices.
Draft Anti-Social Behaviour Strategy There was widespread wel-
come for the county council produced document, which focuses
strongly on anti-social behaviour in accordance with Section 35 of
the Housing Act 2009. Cllr McLellan said it was badly needed and
helped define whether an issue was a council or a Garda matter, etc.
She said it was “good that all complaints will be investigated.” The
mayor stressed that people should be aware that complaints or con-
cerns put in writing are regarded and treated confidentially by the
recipients. The town clerk advised that while the policy is very wel-
come, the reality was that the number working hours available to the
council on any given week a year ago had been reduced by 28%
from 315 to 231. Consequently, issues would be investigated as ‘pri-
ority’ or ‘non-priority’ complaints.

very determined to work really hard for one another. We had
another another hard match against Liscarroll but came out at the
right end. The hunger and the hurt from the year was a big factor
in our eventual final win against Donoughmore".
The Munster championship which followed was to produce two
very different performances. In the drawn match against
Ballymacarbery it was a strangely subdued Inch performance as
many of the side looked a bit leaden footed. However, the replay
was to provide a huge contrast.
"There was a sombre feeling after the drawn match", admits Noel.
"We asked ourselves was this it, were we coming to the end of the
road? It was difficult for many of the girls who played with
Killeagh just the week before in the camogie final to readjust
quickly. We opted for an easy week before the rematch with
Ballymacarbery and tried to factor in as much rest as possible. We
battled on and then went on to win the replay in Dungarvan".
As winter approached an away game at the other end of the coun-
try would hardly be classed as a prize gig for the Munster winners.
An away match in Donegal is about as difficult as it comes at this
time of year for a team from the south.
"Our luck with home matches on the previous years and home
draws had run out. It took a massive effort form everybody with
Tom Goggin and Agnes Fitzgerald doing wonderful work in
organising the trip. We travelled up the day before and prepared
properly. As expected it was a huge battle and a demanding match
physically, but luckily we came out on the right side and Carnacon
await again"

 CD RESTORES MEMORIES OF THE VOICE OF YOUGHAL
By Christy Parker
It's noticeable that the current recession is so disheartening that
many people deem the decade of prosperity that produced it as
'guilty by association' and yearn more for the 'normal' stagnation
of the 1980's. Nostalgia is selective and many recall that prior to
the roar of the Selfish Tiger, sweeter voices rent the air. Some of
those voices entered the Voice of Youghal.
Last Sunday night, at Youghal GAA's Club Aras, such voices
again resounded in a special event commemorating the times
when the Voice of Youghal joyfully filled the town's hearts and
pubs. The night revolved round the launch of Memories of the
Voice of Youghal, a CD collection compiled by Youghal musician
Mark Ansbro who, as a teenager, played backing to some of the
featured performers.
Vintage entertainment
The Voice of Youghal was established in 1981 by Community
Radio Youghal (CRY), which had began broadcasting as a pirate
station two years previously. It ran consecutively until 1983 and
every second year thereafter until 1997. A vintage home brew in
bar entertainment, it spilt into hostelries as far east as Dungarvan
and west towards Midleton. The night's recordings were aired
twice weekly on CRY.
Making comparison in concept between the Voice of Youghal and
X-Factor is unavoidable. "They are identical in the nature of the
debates they engineer," agrees Mark. However the Youghal ver-
sion was original and focused entirely on the singers, with adjudi-
cators that were neither pretentious nor self-promoting. Youghal's
pioneering project didn't have a pot of gold budget either but was
ably and reliably sponsored throughout by Youghal auctioneer
Con Keogh. Amongst other donations, he provided "proper tro-
phies, about 4' high, to the winners," remembers Mark.
Each season started in February, culminated in a September finale
and averaged 84 singers per year @ six per host pub. The songs
were inevitably popular pop tunes or classic ballads, sang by solo
performers. It became so popular that patrons started drinking at 8
pm! On Monday nights!! An estimated 700 people attended -or
tried to attend- one early final in the Ocean Lounge. Some,
marooned nearer the car park than the counter, were obliged to
ferry refreshment from a nearby bar.
Nooche
The Voice of Youghal developed from Pa and Nooche on Tour, an
outside broadcast initiative that saw Pa Cooney and William
'Nooche' Kenefick invade bars to provide a radio platform for
local talent. Nooche, a man blessed with the gift of seeing fun
without losing sight of sincerity, became the Voice of the Voice of
Youghal. It made local legends of them both. Nooche attributes
the shows' success, originally at least, to the novelty and the wide
expression of community radio. "People were a bit hesitant the
first season but after that they were queuing up," he recalls.
"Everyone loved to hear their family, friends or themselves on
radio."
Charity
The competitive edge added to the allure but it is widely under-
stood that the contests were far more about competing than con-
quering. "Without doubt, everyone was a winner," Nooche stress-
es, "because it brought out the best in everyone. There was never
bitterness or begrudgery." The benevolence was extensive, as the
competition focused strongly on raising funds for local charities
and -through Youghal nun Sr. Rosa Cashman, foreign missions.
It all ended in 1997 through 'repetitive strain' and the inexorable
march of time and change. It left in its wake a trail of tales forged
by a compendium of characters. Nooche rubs his jaw and smiles;
"One night there was a power cut in the Half Way bar and they
brought a tractor to a back door to light up the stage, but the rest
of the bar was in pitch darkness. Brendan Morrison said he never
'sold' so many pint bottles but got no money for them!" On anoth-
er occasion the three adjudicators were advised not to award one
contestant a place in the next round, no matter how well he sang,
as he was barred from every other pub in the region and would be
unable to meet his commitments. It is known too that one per-
former had to be subtly but physically supported while singing,
having celebrated too much in advance.
CD launch
Some of the participants have gone from this world now -along
with several of the pubs they enlivened- but there were at least a
dozen of them in Club Aras on Sunday night. From a list drawn
from Nooche's memory bank, Mark had invited a dozen singers to
his home, where they each recorded "one of the songs that made
them famous.' He added two vintage tracks from the competition's
first winner, Kathleen Twomey and from the last winner, the late
Sean O'Neill. Tracks paying tribute to Nooche, Con Keogh and a
humorous, bonus number titled fictitiously, 'The Night Me Father
won the Voice of Youghal' complete a 17-track set. "It's basically
an attempt to capture a little of the magic of the time," explains
Mark, adding that "each singer also comments briefly on what
made it so special for them personally."
Sunday night's event, compered by Jimmy Flanagan, saw live re-
enactments and a crowd of over 200 who relived the precious
memories that helped bind a community and sustain its spirit in
difficult times. The occasion also paid tribute to Nooche for his
services to The Voice of Youghal, to CRY and to Youghal itself.
Presentations were made to him and his wife Agnes on behalf of
CRY, while Voice of Youghal singers present also made a presen-
tation to their former host. Con Keogh was also presented with a
token of appreciation from CRY. If the dire future is half as good
as the past, we'll be ok…
Mark thanks CRY, Warren Tivy/Claycastle Studios, Tony
Irwin/Stoneybuckets Media, Jimmy Flanagan, Michael Sheehan
and photographer Tommy Bulman.

itage, proceeds, after production costs, go to Youghal Hospice.

YOUGHAL MAN’S IMPRESSIVE WEIGHT LOSS EARNS
HIM AURA MEMBER OF THE MONTH AWARD
Youghal man Jim Daly’s commitment to maintaining a healthy
lifestyle has been commended by Aura Youghal Leisure Centre
who have chosen him as their Member of the Month.
The awards recognise Aura members for their dedication to their
personal fitness goals. Jim’s great achievements over the last few
months made him the obvious choice for this month’s award.
Jim, who lives locally in Youghal has been a member of Aura since
2007 and attributes his
impressive five and a half
stone weight loss and
improved fitness levels to his
healthier lifestyle and regular
workouts at Aura.
“I started exercising in Aura
over three years ago, because
I needed to do something
about my weight and fitness
levels,” explained Jim.
“I also wanted to learn how to
swim, which was something that I had been quite nervous about
and put off for years. Since enrolling in the adult swimming class-
es I have made great progress. I am now a regular in the pool and
go for a swim three days a week,” he added.
“As well as my regular swims at Aura, I walk everyday and am
more careful about what I eat. The results have been fantastic,” Jim
explained.
“At Aura, they make it easy to stay motivated. Sticking to an exer-
cise routine can be a challenge, but with the right help you can
make it work. Seeing the results for yourself also acts as great
motivation and encourages you to keep going,” he said.
“I would recommend Aura to anyone. The staff are brilliant. They
are always there to provide encouragement and support and give
you that extra boost when you need it,” Jim added.
“Jim’s impressive weight loss and healthier lifestyle make him the
perfect candidate for this award. He took the first step in address-
ing his own health and fitness needs and the results speak for
themselves,” explained Tracy Kenneally, Operations Manager at
Aura Youghal Leisure Centre.
“Our Member of the Month awards are the ideal way to celebrate

or Cromwell's cavalry were quartered here on his bloody cam-
paign. For instance, if people are exasperated at the problem of
dogs fouling the town, they should spare a thought for their
medieval ancestors. In July 1627, complaints were made about the
number of hogs and pigs which were roaming free along the
medieval streets, even finding their way into the sacrosanct
Churchyard (St. Mary's Collegiate Church). As a solution, six days
warning was to be given 'by the drum'* warning people that the
warden could kill or destroy the animals in question if found there.
Yet this wasn't the end of the matter. A whole fifteen years later,
the issue of swine within the town was still causing complaints. In
a more extreme move, in 1642 (in the midst of the 1641 Irish
rebellion), it was decided that 'the great number of hogs, pigs and
swine is so noisome (annoying) to all the town by the filth and dirt'
that it was allowable to either kill or seize the animal on the spot
if it was found roaming loose about the town. Whether the present
town council will eventually be proclaiming such measures for
loose or fouling dogs remains unknown!
But concern was also shown in the medieval town over littering
and illegal dumping. Named and shamed in the corporation min- Aisling Browne, Shauna Doyle, Kate and Sarah Harrington and Shauna

utes in October 1646 are Thomas Pouncy, Abraham Elliot and (Picture: Bobby Whyte)
Philip Massey for 'laying dirt in the street' whilst the Widow
Sheffield was blamed for blocking the gutter under Mrs. Tynt's
Castle, causing the street to flood.
Public order concerns can also be traced back to these medieval
minutes. In 1617, the corporation was demanding that alehouses
enter into recognizances for the keeping of good order whilst once
a fortnight, 'the Bailiffs for the better restraining of disorder'
would inspect taverns and alehouses and fine any they found there
on Sundays during 'divine service.'
In 1646 however, the corporation was seeking to protect the town's
imbibers, accusing innkeepers of selling unregulated measures of
beer and requiring that they henceforth be sold by the 'pottle, quart
and pint,' a pottle containing four full pints for those who think a
Germanbeer stein (two pint beer mug) is a handful.
The number of alehouses was also regulated. In 1616, it was pro-
posed to limit the number of alehouses to 20 but by 1656, the num-
ber proposed was increased to 30 who were to 'give security to
keep good order.' In comparison, the modern town of Youghal
with its expanded area and larger population has less than twenty
licensed premises to its name.
Concerns raised by Councillors recently over the state of roads
and pavements are also a repetition of times past. In June 1616, a
survey of paving was undertaken in 'Broad Street' and the town at
large with repairs to be conveniently carried out by the inhabitants
rather than the corporation. This problem is to be constantly found
throughout the records, in May 1729 for example, 'the streets
being very much out of repair' that 'every person be obliged to
pave before their holdings to the gutter.'
The state of the roads were also a concern. Again it was on the
inhabitants that the labour fell, with one person out of every
dwelling house expected to undertake work with roads leading to For all your office supply needs

records for April 1615), the Windmill Lane, the 'Corke' Highway Call us on 024 93358

Vandalism also caused controversy. The Mall House (or Assembly
Rooms as it was then known) was built on reclaimed land around

Minor Football Final
Congratulations to the Clashmore-Kinsalebeg Minor Footballers
on a great win in the Div. 2 Football County Final. This was played
in Fraher Field against An Gaeltacht.
In what was nearly a replica of the drawn match, Clashmore /
Kinsalebeg had a good lead going in at half time but An Gaeltacht
attacked in the second half and with about ten minutes to go had
the score down to a goal difference.
Our lads had to defend their goalmouth with everything they had
for the last few minutes and only with strong determination did
they hold out against a very sporting An Gaeltacht team
Danny O Brien as captain, who unfortunately did not play due to
injury, accepted the cup on behalf of the team. He went on to make
a heartfelt speech when he thanked all the mentors, Patsy Collins,
Alan Curran, Mike Burns, John Kelly, and Tim Bourke for all their
hard work. A great win for this set of lads and their mentors, who
had already won the Hurling Minor County Final during the year.
Well done to all involved especially those who had worked with
this group through all the years at juvenile level.
A 'Weenie' bit of Christmas Cheer - Coming your way in
Youghal
A brilliant, new comedy will have its premiere at The Mall Arts
Centre, Youghal, from Monday Dec 6th to Thurs. Dec 9th (incl.).
It is presented by the multi -talented 'Harmony' group and is their
Christmas Show for this year. It promises to be a fantastic night's
fun for all the family. It would be a good idea to book at Cree's
Card Shop (024 93899) by you can also pay at the door. As usual,
with 'Harmony' the emphasis will be on top quality entertainment
at budget prices - Adults €12, Children €10.
'Weenie'! Features gamblers, chancers, baters, lovers, Teddy-boys
and Teenie- boppers, singers, dancers and a dead Cat!
It is a story of the innocence and hidden strength of 'little' people
at a head-spinning turning point for us all - the sixties, when we
first began to ask the question we're still asking now: 'What's hap-
penin' man'?
But most of all, it is a hilarious and heart-warming love-story.
Then, as now, all anyone ever wanted was a happy ending. In
'Weenie'! - In an explosive, hand-clapping, toe-tapping finale - we
get it!
'Weenie'! with original songs and parodies is written by local man,
Finbar Hannon. It is his first play. Finbar is an accomplished stage
and musical director. He has many shows to his credit, including
'The Communication Cord', 'Many Young Men of Twenty',
'Dancing at Lughnasa', 'The Sound of Music', 'Oklahoma', 'Annie',
'South Pacific', 'Some Enchanted Evening', 'My Fair Lady' and
'Guys and Dolls'.
As an actor, he has won Best Actor Award at the All Ireland Drama
Festival, played leading roles with Everyman Theatre and guested
 WEST WATERFORD NEWS
with The Abbey Touring Company.
Among his fondest memories are those of Youghal Choral Society,
when they won premier awards at festivals throughout the coun-
try, including a two-in- a-row at the Cork Choral festival.
He is currently musical and stage director for 'Harmony', which is
dedicated to the further development of singing and acting talent
in the community. 'Harmony' is an entirely voluntary and open
group and new members are always very welcome. It doesn't ask
for financial assistance from the already hard-pressed local com-
munity - it is self-supporting. 'Harmony's' shows are always to a
very high standard and thoroughly enjoyable. Among it's many
successes are 'Many Young Men of Twenty', 'Some Enchanted
Evening', 'From Here to Broadway', 'A tribute to John B &
Showtime' and 'Guys and Dolls', along with various recitals, con-
certs and Christmas Shows.
This year 'Harmony' is presenting adaptable set units, along with a
stage extension and steps unit - all expertly constructed, free of
charge, by Jimmy and Maurice Flanagan - to the Mall Arts centre,
for use by other local and visiting groups, with a big kiss and a
Happy Christmas!
Don't forget: 'Weenie'!, Mall Arts Centre, Mon. - Thurs., 6th to 9th
Dec. 8pm. Adults €12, Children €10. Book at Cree's Card Shop

Old Still Darts Notes
We were up against the boys from Modeligo last Friday night up
in Deckies, and with 5 games gone we led by 3 games to 2.
However that was as good as it got, it was a case of snatching
defeat from the jaws of victory as we failed to win another game,
the final scoreline was Deckies 6, Old Still 3. Next Fridays game
is at home to Morrisseys of Cappoquin, its a game that both teams

 INCH COMMUNITY CENTRE
The coal fires are burning, there is a nip in the air, the winter is fast
approaching. Our thoughts are on the season in hand but before we
get cosy by the fire our chairman John Geaney and the Inch
Committee would like to thank you all for supporting them in our
recent Festival. We kicked off with the Inch Queens in the hall, it
was a great night with great talent and a lovely bunch of girls. We
thank our sponsors for putting them forward to represent their
businesses or clubs. Congratulations to our winner Trisha Arnold
who represented Leahys Open Farm.
Our Table Quiz in Powers Bar had a great selection of questions
to get our memories stirring. Thanks to all who took part. Our
Bingo went well and our schools Table Quiz had a great turn out
and thanks to all who took part. Then it was onto our Fashion
Show, a first in many years to be held in the hall. The place was a
hive of activity the night before with ramps, carpets, lights, flow-
ers etc. on the ready. We had a great turn out and a great selection
of clothes and sizes to suit all. A big thanks to the shops and their
staff for putting a fantastic display together to wow us so please
support local this year - we have a great selection on our
doorsteps. And then it was down to the final day, our bazaar. We
were blessed with a dry day, the spinner was in full swing with
great prizes to give away, Our brick-a-brack was awash with bar-
gains, cakes flew out the door, plant sales tables were full of
colour, our outdoor side shows went down a treat with kids and
adults having a go at the wet sponge as well as our treasure hunt
and soccer and other side shows. Our visit from the animal road
show went down a treat with a range of reptiles and mammals on
display and a chance to hold them.
Then it was our finale the Duck Race, what excitement as they
bobbed down the river fighting for a place. We had a great crowd,
a lovely family day with quite a lot of new faces in the area, so
welcome to you all. Then it was time to tidy up, have a cuppa and
head home to shower and get all dressed up for our get together in
Powers Bar. It was a fun packed week but would not have hap-
pened without the help of our hard working committee who gave
so much time to organise this event. Your support is very much
appreciated.
In the New Year all going well we will have to undertake a big
project of renovation to our Community Hall to bring it up to stan-
dard so we hope we can call on you to support us. The results of

 YOUGHAL CAMOGIE CLUB
Last Saturday night the Annual Youghal GAA dinner dance was
held in Club Aras in the fantastic settings that the committee mem-
bers yet again pulled off. The night went off with out a hitch, with
fantastic food and great music.
Joan O’Flynn, president of Camogie was the honoree guest of the
night and gave a fantastic speech on what Camogie means to the
community and what a fantastic achievement it was to win the dou-
ble. She also said some very nice words about our own
Chairperson Kelly McCarthy whom along with Secretary Kelma
McCarthy has done Trojan work in the background to get the
Youghal Camogie team back on its feet.
The work sometimes goes unnoticed in the background, but not
with this team as we are sure that the 2 girls have made themselves
known through out the town, as well as the County board in order
to get support and sponsorship for the club.
It has been a fantastic year also for the club as 2 of our team mates Youghal Camogie Club members pictured at Saturday Night’s Dinner Dance at

Killeagh-Ita's Juvenile G.A.A.
U-12 Hurling in Mid-Winter
We have been travelling to Kilkenny over the past few weekends
playing the qualifying rounds in this hugely successful 10-a-side
all-weather invitational hurling tournament in Carrigeen, Co
Kilkenny. The best clubs from all over Ireland are invited to this
tournament and it is an honour alone to be playing against such
famous clubs. We came through the qualifiers after some great bat-
tles. Our game against St John's from Belfast was a game we will
never forget. This was a very physical encounter, and it took us a
while to get to grips with a very well trained St John's team. With
five minutes remaining we were five points down, but this team
and management does not like losing and had to dig very deep in
to the reserves to get two goals and win the game by one point, on
a scoreline of Killeagh-Ita's 7 - 1; St John's 4 - 9. One can't but
mention the brilliance of Aaron Walsh in goals, this was Aaron's
first time playing in goals, but he looked like he played there all
his life.
Semi Final :Killeagh Itas 8 - 4 O'Loughlin Gaels 3 - 8 (Kilkenny)
This weekend we faced none other than the mighty O'Loughlin
Gaels from Kilkenny in the semi-final. Our opponents were fast
out of starting blocks and had two points on the score board in the
first five minutes. Cathal Deane had to be withdrawn after six min-
utes due to illness, which was a huge blow to the Killeagh-Ita's
team. Our captain Killian Treacy pounced to score a great goal on
eight minutes. Killian was nursing a knee injury for the last two
weeks and deserves great credit for playing. Once we got our
noses in front we never looked back. Killian added another point
and then the mighty Andrew Leahy struck for the first of his five
goals on the twelfth minute. O'Loughlin Gaels struck back with a
goal and two points. Daniel Hickey got a great goal on the eigh-
teenth minute. Daniel is one of our two eleven year olds on the
panel (the other being Keane Budds), Daniel may be small but he
has the heart of a lion, the bigger the opponent the better for
Daniel. Killian hit a free straight to the net and Andrew buried his
second goal just before half time. Aaron Wash was again excellent
in goal, Kevin Murphy was a rock at full back and Luke was excel-
lent at corner back. Christy Coughlan, Eoin Fitzgibbon, Fergal
Smiddy and Keane Budds all worked hard in turn in midfield.
Emmett Barron was very effective at full forward, breaking the
ball for sharp shooters Killian and Andrew. At half time we led by
5 - 1 to 1 - 4.
O'Loughlin Gaels came storming back at us in the second half,
scoring a goal and two points. Jack O' Rourke was now excelling
at corner back , while Aaron again stood tall in goals as O'Loughlin
Gaels threw everything at us. Andrew again popped up for us on
the eighth minute knocking over a point followed by a cracking
goal. Killian fired over a point twelve minutes in, while Cathal
overcame his illness and came back on with fifteen minutes to go.
This was a huge lift to the team and he played a blinder for the rest
of the game. Eoin Treacy shifted some great balls to our forwards
and Andrew hit home another goal twenty minutes in. Killian was
now in real pain and limping badly and had to be withdrawn.
Killian was a huge loss but he had played his part in scoring 2 - 3
. O'Loughlin Gaels never gave up and scored another goal and two
points before Cathal hit over a sweet point. Andrew banged in his
fifth goal at the death for a great victory. Our game against St
John's really stood to us on the night as we were much better pre-
pared than we had been in the earlier rounds. This team has
improved all season and have really toughened up together as a
team and are now proving very hard to beat.
Team: Aaron Walsh, Luke Fogarty, Kevin Murphy, Jack O
Rourke, Christy Coughlan, Cathal Deane 0 - 1, Eoin Fitzgibbon,
Andrew Leahy 5 - 1, Emmett Barron, Killian Treacy (capt) 2 -
3,Eoin Treacy, Fergal Smiddy, Keane Budds, and Daniel Hickey 1-
0. We are now in the final against James Stephens from Kilkenny,
another powerhouse in hurling, and we just can't wait to have a
crack off them.
Sam visits Killeagh On Tuesday last Sam Maguire paid a visit to
the four schools of the parish, and got a great reception in each
school. Thanks to Ursula, Paudie and Sean for chaperoning Sam,
and we hope that he will return, along with his friend Liam, to all
our schools again this time next year!
Juvenile AGM Thursday 25th 8.00 p.m. The AGM of Killeagh-
Ita's Juevenile GAA Club will take place on this Thursday
November 25th at 8.00p.m., upstairs in our new pavilion in Páirc
Uí Chinnéide. We are asking all parents of young players to attend
this AGM if possible to hear about our activities of the past year,
and to plan for an even better 2011. Bígí ann, gach éinne!
Help! In 2008, our Under 12 hurlers won the prestigious Jack
Lynch Cup, a replica of the Liam McCarthy Cup, in the annual Na
Piarsaigh tournament. So what, you ask? Well, the cup is missing,
last seen in Killeagh Hall sometime around the end of 2008.
Someone, somewhere, may be able to delve into their grey matter
and recall something about this cup. If you can throw any light on
the mystery, please contact Ursula, Ray or any other committee
member.
Juvenile End of Year Party
On Saturday December 4th, we hold our End of Year party in our
new pavilion in Páirc Uí Chinnéide, from 4.00 p.m. to 6.00 p.m.
This is for all boys from Under 12 down who played with us this
year. We will have medals for some, and entertainment for all.
Invitations will follow, but for now, note the date and time.

The Special Local Area Plan identified a site north of the railway station,
with the special zoning objective X-01, for a new residential
neighbourhood of up to 2,000 new dwellings and required the
preparation of a masterplan.
Cork County Council has prepared a Draft Masterplan for Carrigtwohill

YOUGHAL CYCLING CLUB
Winter Training in full motion with Youghal C.C. - Sunday 21st
November
Another fine fresh Sunday morning greated members of Youghal
C.C. last weekend when a group of 10 gathered at Moby Dicks for
our weekly spin. The group departed at 9.00am sharp out the
Dungarvan road for Clashmore and Aglish where we turned up left
for the Mast and the long drag. All climbed well to the top where
we traveled on towards the Shanachie and then dropped down into
Ring for re-fuelling. On arrival, I noticed that I had punctured and
it was pay back time for all the lads as they watched with GLEE as
I suffered through the process of changing the flat. As I stood there,
they all circled round me like a bunch on Indians circling as poor
defenseless wagon out in the Wild West, passing comment as to
what I was doing wrong, when all along I was doing it all right.
And to top it off, the Big Chief himself, AKA Magnum P.I. or as
some people are calling him " the cyclist formally known as the
Secretary " didn't even offer to help me, even though he changed
everyone else's punctures last winter !!!. Moving on, as I finally
managed to drink my Tea while watching the rest of the group
departing, I pondered over the payback I was receiving for all my
lovely comments in the papers that were made during the year
about most of the lads in the Club. Well Have I got NEWS for ye
boys, ye might think that ye have softened my cough, but I'm the
type that performs best when under pressure. There is a long win-
ter ahead and I'm going to have some fun talking about ye all over
the coming months. Be afraid, be very afraid. On a more serious
note, we left Ring fully refreshed and took the coast road to
Ardmore. From there we rode down to Ferry Point and took in the
surprise climb up the back road behind Monatray. We re-grouped
at the top and rode steady back to Piltown and Youghal for our
usual all out assault on the Bye-Pass. Spin complete, we arrived
back in Youghal for 12.30 with a refreshing 80km completed on a
fantastic morning. Concern was again expressed over the where-
abouts of Cav O' Mahoney last week. It was decided that we would
get some "Missing" posters printed up and we would all meet next
Tuesday evening, after spinning class, to stick them up locally. If
that fails then we will move on to the milk cartons and cereal
boxes.
A fine group of 11 also gathered at Moby Dicks for the 10 0' clock
groups weekly spin. They also decided to head in the Waterford
direction via Piltown, Ardmore and the Shanachie. From their they
rolled back down into Youghal where they arrived for 12:30 with a
testing 35km completed. So testing in fact that Alan and Jim head-
ed straight for the café at the Clock Gate for a well deserved
Cappuccino and all you can eat breakfast. Nice one lads !
Club Website Information about the club, cycling in the area and
cycling in general, can be viewed at our club website. It has to be
seen by all at www.youghalcyclingclub.com.
Weekend Spins. As you are all well aware by now, there is a week-
ly spin every Sunday morning at 9.00 am sharp leaving from Moby
Dicks Pub by the Clock Gate. This spin which runs on various
routes every week usually takes between 2 to 3 hours ( weather
permitting ) and covers on average between 40 to 50km. The pace
is comfortable and we usually stop half way around for a coffee or
tea.
A second group also goes on a weekly spin every Sunday morning
at 10.00am sharp leaving from Moby Dicks Pub by the Clock Gate.
This spin which runs on various routes every week usually takes
around 3 hours to complete and covers on average between 30 to
40km. The pace is again very comfortable. This is an ideal group
for anyone interested in taking up the sport.
A ladies group spin has also being orgainised for Saturday morn-
ings at 9.00am. Anyone interested in attending should contact the
club Secretary for details.
New members or visitors to the area are always welcome. If you
have any questions about the club or attending one of our weekend
spins, please contact our Club Secretary Jonathan at 086-8563292
for details. See you all Sunday Morning !!. Until next week, safe

Dereliction:
Derelict sites, unsurprisingly, came in for unavoidable mention. If
they couldn't or wouldn't be abolished in some way, perhaps their
effect could be hidden, with painted or embellished adorned
hoardings of some sort erected to make the areas more eye-pleas-
ing. Perhaps the owners of the Mill Road site might be prevailed
upon to do this, he suggested, displaying an optimism that only the
holder of a bronze medal, at least, could apply to a firm heading
into liquidation.
Equally optimistic, he wondered whether the CIE site at
McCurtainstown could be similarly treated, although it would
emerge later that the State body has promised to clean up the place
in the coming months. The view of the old Hilltop hotel reflected Junior and Senior Infants with first and second class pupils pictured with the Shoe

whose anniversary occurs at this time

This day I will always remember, with heartache and regret,

It's the day you were taken from us, how could I ever forget.
The winds of love blow softly, just enough for you to hear,
But I still love and miss you, and wish that you were here.
You made the world a better place, in your own special way,
And you're still loved so very much, and missed more everyday.
Your leaving caused a lot of tears, and so much grieving too,
It was the hardest thing of all to say goodbye to you. Deep in our hearts you will always stay,
You gave your love until one day, you heard the angels call,
And above us now in heaven lives the best Dad of them all. Loved and remembered everyday.

Sadly missed by your daughter Pearl, son in law Mike, grand- Sadly missed by your brother

Will stay with us forever
Everyone whispered softly
Time will heal the pain
But life here without you Dad
Has never been the same.

Tell him I love and miss him, My love for you will never die
And when he turns to smile place a kiss upon his check So stay beside me always
And hold him for awhile. Your love will keep me strong
Remembering him is easy, I do it everyday, Because life can be tough sometimes
But there is an ache within my heart that will never go away. Now that you are gone.

DAVIE O'BRIEN
Late of Dermot Hurley Est., Youghal

Should you go first and I remain, to walk the road alone, May you always walk in sunshine,
I'll live in memories garden, dear, with happy days we've known.
And God’s love around you flow,
In spring I'll wait for roses red, when faded, the lilacs blue.
In early fall when brown leaves fall, I'll catch a glimpse of you. For the happiness you gave us,
I'll hear your voice, I'll see your smile, though blindly I may grope, No-one will ever know.
the memory of your helping hand will buoy me on with hope. It broke our hearts to lose you,
Should you go first and I remain, one thing I'll have you do:
But you did not go alone,
walk slowly down that long long path, for soon I'll follow you.
I want to know each step you take, so I may take the same. For a part of us went with you,
For someday down that lonely road, you'll hear me call your name. The day God called you home.

Sadly missed by your loving wife, Ena Your sister Biddy and Michael

You toiled so hard for those you loved. You said goodbye to none,
Your spirit flew before we knew, your work on earth was done.
We miss you now, our hearts are sore, as time goes by we miss you more.
Your loving smile, your gentle face: no one can fill your vacant place.

You did the best for all of us. We will always remember you.

In Loving Memory of a darling Baby Son
Fionn O'Shea
Whose second Anniversary occurs on17th Nov., 2009.
When God calls little children to dwell with him above,
We mortals sometime question the wisdom of his love,
For no heartache compares with the death of one small child,
Who does so much to make our world, seem wonderful and mild,
Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to his fold,
So He picks a rosebud, before they can grow old.
God knows how much we need them, and so he takes but a few,
To make the land of Heaven more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult still somehow we must try,
But the saddest word mankind knows will always be "Goodbye."
So when a little child departs we who are left behind must realize
God loves children as Angels are hard to find
Love you always and forever Mum and Dad

reached when our Senior girls were crowned County Senior
League Champions and a particularly low ebb when with the blow

denied the County Senior A Championship title for 2010. Despite
playing to the best of their abilities it was not to be, well done and
hard luck.

increased the pressure, and goals from Kate and Angela followed
by points from Annie and Mary secured our position. Clonakilty
didn’t score in the second half and the result was truly in our
favour. We were crowned County League Champions 2010 to add
to our Championship title for the year. Many thanks to all the girls
for being present on the night, particularly those who had to trav-

County B Championships
Youghal AC had twelve juvenile athletes in action at the
County B Championships in Carrignavar on Sunday 14th
November. The event was hosted by Carrignavar who laid out
an excellent course as usual. The weather was again kind to us;
there was ample sunshine despite freeezing conditions during
Saturday night. Picnics were provided by the O' Regan and
Cahill families; it is indeed unusual to be able to sit out with the
flasks at this time of the year. All of our athletes gave outstand-
ing individual performances. Well done girls!
GIRLS U/10 Caoimhe Barry was our first athlete to finish in a
very good 16th place in a very big field. Next in was Tirna
Cahill who ran very well in 24th place. Ciara Cantillon who
was running in her very first race did very well and finished in

whom are only under 9. Evan Villis had a great race to finish
in 24th and Cian Nicholson also did well coming in 32nd. Well
done lads!
GIRLS U/12 The club had three girls competing all of whom
gave thrilling performances with all three girls featuring with
the leading group throughout in a large field. Latisha was in
2nd position for half of the tace with Aine O' Regan and Karynn
Collins in close pursuit. Positions altered with very little
between the girls. Aine finished in 4th , Latisha in 5th and Jessica Carroll, Lauren Murphy and Sarah

BOYS U/12 Newcomer Eoin O' Brien had an outstanding per-
formance. This was only his third race but he is showing great
potential. He was running up an age also. He went out with the
leading group in 6th position from the start. Big gaps started to
open up in this 2000m race. Eoin moved to 4th position ib the
early stages; his position was challenged twice but he main-
taned his placing and he also win an individual bronze medal.

long race of 3,500m. Lauren was 11th and Jessica in 13th.
Well done girls!
GIRLS U/16 Rachel Carey who was only running in her sec-
ond cross-country race also running up an age did extremely

were running closely during most of the race thereafter. Rachel
upped the gears with 800m to go opening upp a gap to finish in
a very strong 2nd position behind the Skibbereen winner.
Rachel won an individual silver county medal. It was a very
good perforamce for this newcomer!
A huge cogratulations from the Juvenile section to Niamh
Walshe who ran an outstanding race also on Sunnday to win the
County Intermediate title. She has already won the County
Novice title and two Munster medals in the Munster
Intermediate race both individual and an inter-county Gold
medal. Best of luck to Niamh who will now run on the Cork
Senior team in the All Irelands in Derry on 28th November.
Well done also to Mossie Cahill who ran in the Intermediate
race and got huge support from his daughter Tirna on the field.

Resident Parking Permit holders on the North Main Street cannot
park on that street between 11.00 am and 4.30 pm Monday to
Saturday but may park for free in any car park. Additionally, a
North Main Street resident may opt to hold a Residents Parking
Permit in respect of the next available street when making an
application. This means that a person on night shift work, for
example, may acquire a permit allowing them to park in an alter-
native street to avoid penalties.

A parking fee of €1 per hour will apply during business hours, with
a minimum fee of 20c. Additionally, Bye Law 8(f) stipulates that Brend Sheehan, Brigit O’Driscoll, An Taisce, Kieran Marigan Board of

streets; ii) cannot be parked for longer than 30 minutes in any car

must pay the relevant pay parking charges that apply to the area in
which they park. Effectively the laws mean that hackney drivers
cannot sit and wait within the town centre during business hours
but will operate on the basis of responding to calls when required.

RAAM BY THE NUMBERS
 Total distance is more than 3000 Miles.
 Collectively, the Solo and Team finishers will travel a
combined distance equivalent to circling the Earth at the
equator seven times.
 In the 29 year history of the race, Solo finishers have ridden
more than one million miles - that's two round trips to the
moon.
 Lowest elevation is 170 feet below sea level. Highest
elevation is more than 10,000 feet high above sea level. This
elevation range exceeds two vertical miles.
 Each Solo and Team will climb more than 100,000 feet. This
is roughly the distance from the ground to the edge of space,
more than three times the altitude flown by commercial
jetliners and almost four times the altitude of Mt. Everest.

 RAAM crosses the five longest rivers that are entirely in the

RAAM has a similar draw. At the very least, it's the honor of
adding their name to the prestigious roll call of RAAM Finishers
and Team RAAM Finishers.
RAAM is more than a bike race. It is about ordinary people being
great. It's about realising dreams, a journey of the heart and soul.
It's about being the toughest of the tough. It's about camaraderie,
teamwork, and the incredible RAAM family. It's about taking the
stage for a charity or cause that matters, to raise awareness and
funds. It's about the vastness, richness, beauty, and generosity of
the United States of America and the people who live here. It's a
lifetime experience never to be repeated.
The Race Across America endures due to its amazing effect on the
human consciousness and for its incredible feats of willpower,
inspiration, and heart.

world over. It is one of the pinnacles of sporting accomplishment,

Cork County Leagues
Once again our 3 teams competed in the Cork County Leagues.
Youghal A played against the Crucible on a home and away basis and
were narrowly beaten on both occastions. But the A Team stepped up
a gear against Fermoy by defeating them very impressively. Our B
Team were in action against the A.O.H. from Cork and were unfortu-
nately defeated in both games. The C Team which comprises of some
of the societies young and up and coming talent played top club The
Shooters from Cork City.
Unfortunately the standard from their opponents was very high, but
it proved to be a good learning experience for our lads. As it stands
in the league Youghal A are in third place while the B and C teams
are down the table.
Domestic Tournaments
The final of the Raymond O'Donoghue Senior Tournament was held
recently and what a great final was shown on the green baize. D.
Aherne played C. Lyons in the final and the standard of snooker was
very impressive on
the night C. Lyons
eventually broke
D.Aherne resistance
by taking the final by
3 frames to 2. Well
done to both players
for a great final.

It proved to be a great tournament and congratulations to A. Fouhy
on defeating C. Cooney in the Final.
Kieran Mangan spoke afterwards on behalf of the Mangan family and
thanked the Society on keeping Kevin's memory alive.
The Christy Hennessy Tournament is on going and is now nearing the
semi-final stage. This should be completed in full by next week. Also
in progress at the moment is the Paddy Joyce Tournament. This tour-
nament is being run as a top 16 tournament but in a group stage for-
mat, winners of each group qualify for semi-finals. This is good prac-
tice for our 3 teams with the Munster Championships coming up in
January.
