With the summer weather finally hitting Galway, many people are leaving the shadows of the home and heading outside to bask in the rays.

On Friday December 16 O’Donnellan & Joyce expects the Victoria Hotel to be bursting at the seams when it auctions 16 fantastic properties. Locations are varied and each property is priced to sell. As is common practice now, in most cases the reserve prices will not exceed the advised minimum value price and in some cases it could even be lower. Locations include Claregalway, Carnmore, Menlo, Woodquay, Glasán (GMIT), Bushypark, Rahoon, the city centre, Salthill, The Claddagh, and Kingston. This is being billed as a ‘spoiled for choice’ auction and there is such a variety of properties in a variety of locations that there is something for everyone.

Salthill beach will be receiving a thorough clean on Saturday, September 20 at 2pm as part of the Galway Atlantaquaria & Marine Conservation Society’s (MCS) annual Beachwatch litter survey and clean-up.  

Every time I see the long angular shape of Ken Bruen loping through the back streets of Galway, I say to myself: ‘Bet he’s on a new case.’ Ken Bruen is acknowledged as one of the world’s best crime writers. He has written an amazing 27 novels, compiled numerous collections, and won heaps of awards and nominations, especially for his first Jack Taylor series beginning with The Guards (published 2001).
