Mr. Price
Spotted at the old Iceland store during the week
I peeped in and the interior has had all the fridges taken out and Mr. Price type shelving installed.
In Listowel now I count 4 shops selling helium inflated balloons. We must be doing some celebrating.

A Fact
The winter of 1740 was so cold that rivers and lakes froze. People, unaccustomed to these new playing surfaces, held dances and carnivals on the ice. A hurling match took place on The Shannon and a Fair on the Lee.
