Kerry Tralee is the county town of County Kerry. The town is on the northern side of the neck of the Dingle Peninsula, and while the town is modern and bustling, it also pays much respect to its own history. Tralee was founded by the Anglo-Normans in the 13th century. Since, its founding, the city has grown around the grand Tralee Castle and the Dominican Abbey. Much of the city today, though, reflects the designs of the Denny family who rebuilt Tralee during their rule in the 18th century. County Kerry is in the Southwest region of Ireland and is part of the province of Munster. Kerry is the fifth-largest of the 32 counties of Ireland by area and the 15th-largest by population. The county also has a strong Gaelic footballing tradition and the county colours are green and yellow. The county is often referred to as ‘the Kingdom.’ With its mountains, lakes and Atlantic coastline, Kerry is among the most scenic areas in Ireland and is one of the most significant tourist destinations in Ireland.

For billiard-tables there is nothing like slate, so perfectly level and smooth as it is. Then, fishmongers found there was nothing like slate for their slab (till they are rich enough to afford marble); and farmers’ wives discovered the same thing in regard to their dairies. Plumbers then began to declare that there was nothing like slate for cisterns and sinks; and builders, noticing this, tried slate for the pavement of wash-houses, pantries, and kitchens, and for cottage floors; and they have long declared that there is nothing like it; it is so clean, and dries so quickly. If so, thought the ornamental gardener, it must be the very thing for garden chairs, summer-houses, sun-dials, and tables in arbors; and it is the very thing. The stone mason was equally pleased with it for gravestones.

I first joined the Volunteers at Kilflynn when they were first formed there in the year 1913. Two Ten, ex-British soldiers named Collins and Sheehy, were the drill instructors. The strength of the Company was about 100 men. About August, 1914 our two drill instructors as well as a number of men in the Company were called up as they were on the British Army Reserve. This, as well as Redmond's call on the Volunteers to defend the shores of Ireland, was the cause of the breaking up of the Company and it ceased to exist. It was not, until early 19l7, that the Volunteers were reorganised at Learn, Lixnaw. I and a few other men in the area had got into touch with members of a Volunteer Company which had been in existence in Tralee for some time previously, so we decided to reorganise the Lixnaw Company. Our first Company Captain was Tom Shanahan.

Re: SBLNG submission on the regulatory treatment of the BGÉ Interconnectors Dear Mr. Coleman, We welcome the CER’s proposed decision as outlined on February 17th 2012 with the following high-level comments: If there is to be a significant difference between the proposed and actual decision to be made by the CER then we believe that this should go back to public consultation once more, especially if this is to be to the advantage of Shannon LNG. We are concerned with concerted lobbying by local Kerry-based politicians to try and force Minister Rabbitte to give a direction to the CER which would be favourable to Shannon LNG but against consumer interest. We note that the Minister has no right to do this under section 10A 6 of the Electricity Regulation Act 1999 as amended and as he himself outlined in the Dáil on March 7th 2012. 1 We believe that any final decision by the CER should have as prime goals the consumer interest with no barriers to fair competition between different suppliers into the Irish market and that the cost of the interconnectors should be shared out among all suppliers proportional to their market share. We are especially concerned that none of the Shannon LNG assets should become part of the Transmission System’s Regulatory Asset Base which would amount to indirect state aid to the proposed LNG terminal because Ireland already has access to LNG via the UK market.
