Those who have been encouraged to go out for a summer stroll in the recent nice weather will have noticed the huge improvement in the neatness of the roads leading out from the village. No longer are the roadsides littered with debris such as plastic bottles, fast food containers, plastic bags, cigarette boxes, tayto bags and many other kinds of rubbish.
Who have we to thank for this great improvement? Is it ourselves? I’m afraid not. We haven’t all been converted to a tidy Tipperary philosophy overnight but a start has been made. Our thanks is due to South Tipperary County Council and their recent roadside clean up campaign. The workers who carried out the clean up locally were the local FAS workers under their local supervisor Jamesy Ivors.
