A new Limerick Gift Card has launched as part of efforts to support local businesses by locking in spending and attracting new spending to the county. Backed by Limerick City and County Council and Limerick Chamber, the gift card is available as either a physical gift card or an e-card that can be added to digital wallets. Cards can be spent in the city and surrounding towns, including Newcastle West, Adare, Abbeyfeale, Kilmallock and Rathkeale. Over 140 businesses, including independent businesses and well-known Irish brands such as Penneys and Brown Thomas, accept the new Limerick Gift Card. John Moran, Mayor of Limerick said: "Local retail businesses are key to a vibrant Limerick. They provide essential shopping and services, employment and broader support in our communities. But it is not a one-way street. They need our support too. A little adjustment by each of us in how we spend this Christmas will make a huge collective difference to them. These innovative cards make that easy for us all! Please think local this year!" The Limerick Gift Card is part of the multi-award winning Town & City Gift Card concept active across Ireland in Ballinrobe, Carndonagh, Drogheda, Letterkenny, Sligo and Waterford. Over €7 million Town & City Gift Cards were sold in Ireland in 2023, with around 80% of sales to organisations for staff rewards and incentives. Newly launched technology from Miconex allows Irish organisations to distribute digital Limerick Gift Cards to their staff, clients and customers online to multiple participants at once, immediately or on a future date. Liam Dwan, manager of Brown Thomas said it's a card for everyone: "Brown Thomas is located on O'Connell Street at the centre of Limerick's main shopping district and as one of Ireland's leading department stores, we were keen to get involved with the Limerick Gift Card. What's great about the card is the choice on offer. With one card, recipients can go shopping in Limerick's best stores, grab a bite to eat or a coffee, or even stay over. It's a card that caters for everyone." Penneys store manager Noel McNamara adds: "Penneys Limerick is delighted to be collaborating with fellow Limerick businesses on this exciting new gift card for our city and county. People often visit the city for the high street stores, but will stay to discover other businesses too, and this has a positive impact on everyone. We know from our own Penneys gift cards that people spend over and above the value on the cards, all benefiting our local economy and helping Limerick to thrive." Alongside city businesses, a range of Limerick county businesses are participating in the program, like Isobel's Boutique in Adare. Kay Mulcaire is the owner of the store and said the card is straightforward and appealing: "The fact you can buy a digital version of the card which can be added to digital wallets is fantastic. Lots of people pay using their phones now, so it makes supporting local really convenient. It's also ideal for last-minute gifts, as people can buy the digital card online and send it to the recipient in moments. People want to support local, but it has to be easy, and the new Limerick Gift Card is straightforward and appealing." Hospitality businesses including restaurants, cafés and pubs are also accepting the card, like multi-award winning pub Mother Macs on High Street and Upper Denmark Street. Michael McMahon, owner of Mother Macs, said the card provides much-needed support for the hospitality sector: "Supporting local has always been at the heart of what we do at Mother Macs Public House, and the Limerick City Gift Card aligns perfectly with that ethos. It's a simple yet impactful way to champion our city's incredible mix of retailers, hospitality venues, and cultural gems." A range of accommodation providers are also accepting the Limerick Gift Card, like Deebert House Hotel. Margaret O'Sullivan, manager of the hotel, commented: "Nestled at the foothills of the Ballyhoura Mountains, ...

Jon Beardmore hand-delivers a postcard in Glasnevin, live on air, which he brought all the way from the Galapagos Islands. Jacqueline thinks the 60 cents Brown Thomas are charging for a paper bag is too much. Joe chats to Ruth Walsh, Jimmy Murphy & David Duffy about the funding model of the Arts Council.
Retailer Brown Thomas have defended their decision to charge 60 cent for paper bags in their stores. The charge, introduced last week, applies to the instantly recognisable Brown Thomas grey and white bags and Arnott's blue branded carriers and applies irrespective of the size of the bag a customer is given. They say that all profits from the sale of paper carrier bags will be used to support Crann – Trees for Ireland with the aim of planting 100,000 trees in Ireland over the next 10 years. What do you think about being charged for using a paper bag? People carrying a Brown Thomas bag in Dublin city centre | Image: RollingNews.ie

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Deanna Brown-Thomas, whose father was none other than Mr. Dynamite aka, The Godfather of Soul aka “The Hardest Working Man in Show Business”. We are of course talking about the legendary James Brown. When Deanna agreed to be a guest on the podcast we had no idea just how honest and forthcoming she would be talking about her father. In fact, she used the word ‘transparency' and that's exactly what our interview was like. Outspoken, honest, joyful and genuine, Deanna spoke to us about everything from what it was like meeting (or perhaps being set up with) Eddie Murphy backstage as an adult to meeting Soul Train host Don Cornelius on camera as a four year old. As we discussed on this episode, there were very few entertainers who were as well-known across the world other than James Brown and we dig into it. We also learned of James Brown 75/25 rule about show business which frankly was a life lesson we should all learn from. For a man who was known for his explosive live act, it was the school of hard knocks that made him learn that without the business, there was no show. When you work as hard as James Brown did onstage, you better believe, it was taken care of offstage. We also spoke about Deanna's career in radio, in running the James Brown Family Foundation and the James Brown Academy of Music Pupils in Augusta, Ga which provides musical education for local school children as well as a James Brown tour – the only one you can see in the world. We also learned about the James Brown estate which Deanna was very, yes transparent about.. We also discussed James Brown's role in the civil rights movement, his love of Jazz, his ownership of radio stations, what it was like behind the scenes and one subject we like to talk about - life on the road. It's sometimes not all it's cracked up to be. In fact, you might find yourself ordering room service instead of attending an afterparty on the road with her dad. You'll have to listen for yourself. Deanna was a fantastic guest, a warm and frank person who wasn't afraid to ‘go there'. So take a listen, to this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast and you'll see what we are talking about.

It's the 7 year itch! We scratch the surface of the upcoming season in episode 1 - 'The Return of the Pod' . After Johnny's winter in the lingerie section of Brown Thomas and Dan's Qatari World Cup adventure, not much has changed on Planet Pod. Johnny still has high hopes for Galway, Dan still reckons this is the biggest season ever, and 90's goth-pop and R&B makes the inevitable return. But to help the dynamic duo get back down to the reality of what's coming up we've asked Mark Rossiter and John Martin to help with an analysis of the comings and goings over the last few months to help predict how this season of all seasons will pan out. We swipe right on transfer tinder and the saga of Dundalk's multiple logins, we ask "Can Derry take Rovers?", we look at the return of 'older' managers to challenge Johnny's favourite law firm, and there's the Mono Stand, cash wages, a bumper bumper mailbag and an almost-epic Collar & Cuff competition. As usual by the end of the hour in studio there still isn't a concrete answer and nothing is indeed delivered. We'd bring you the truth but we reckon you couldn't handle it so you'll have to make do with the rest. It's a Future Ticketing, Collar & Cuff sponsored, rascal of an opening night and other than Galway winning the First Division you'll have to make up your own mind.
