The community group, Retailers of Ennis, imposed a blockade on the delivery entrance to Dunnes Stores on Friday in response to the retail giant's erection of an electronic barrier. The barrier came into operation on Thursday and is preventing delivery trucks from accessing businesses on O'Connell Street and Cook's Lane, as they have been doing since the arrival of Dunnes in Ennis in the early 1990s. Clare County Council says "the barrier was not sanctioned or erected by the Local Authority", while "pedestrian access is still being maintained at this location", and "any issues in respect of vehicle rights of way or access are considered to be civil matters". Clare FM's Seán Lyons was at Friday's demonstration and caught up with John O'Connor of Custys Music Shop.

Four hours of fun with Fescoe Dusty and Mac!

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 4ú lá de mí Aibreán, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1970 chuaigh an ráta den táirgeadh tionsclaíoch I rith na 60dí suas chuig 500 milliúin punt agus de bharr sin bhí níos mó ná 50 míle post ann d'fhir agus mná. I 1986 bhí na múinteoirí ar buille leis an Aire Oideachas Paddy Cooney de bharr gur tháinig an nuacht amach go mbeadh daoine ón phobal chun teacht isteach agus stiúir a dhéanamh ar na scrúdaithe. I 1970 dúirt oideachasóirí agus oibrí sóisialta sa chontae go raibh ólachán faoi aois fadhb mór agus go raibh sé ag fás. I 1986 cheannaigh Dunnes Stores suíomh a raibh sé acra in Inis an áit a raibh an pictiúrlann Gaiety. Sin Simon & Garfunkle le Bridge Over Troubled Water – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1970. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1987 chuaigh albam U2 The Joshua Tree chuig uimhir a 7 ar an Billboard 200. Chuaigh sé chuig uimhir a haon tar éis trí sheachtain agus fuair sé stádas diamant I Meiriceá, mar dhíol siad níos mó ná 10 milliúin cóip. I 1999 tháinig an nuacht amach gur shroich an dara halbam de The Corrs, Talk On Corners, uimhir a haon sna cairteacha don deichiú huair ónar tháinig sé amach. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Graham Norton in Éirinn I 1963 agus rugadh aisteoir Robert Downey Jr I Nua Eabhrac ar an lá seo I 1965 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh an tseachtain seo chugainn le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 4th of April, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh In 1970: The annual rate of industrial production during the 1960's increased by more than £500,000,000 which created 50,000 new jobs for men and women In 1986: Education minister paddy cooney aroused the fury of striking teachers when he announced that he would hire members of the public to supervise and mark that years school examinations. In 1970: Educationalists and social workers in various parts of the county said the underage drinking problem is quite big and is growing. In 1986: Dunnes stores purchased a six acre site adjacent to Ennis town centre with the derelict gaiety cinema in o connell street. That was Simon and Garfunkel with Bridge Over Troubled Water – the biggest song on this day in 1970. Onto music news on this day in 1987, U2's fifth album, The Joshua Tree, debuted at No.7 on the Billboard 200, making it the highest first-week entry in seven years. It took another three weeks to reach No.1 and eventually achieved diamond status in America, selling over ten million copies. In 1999, Irish folk-pop band The Corrs saw their second album, Talk On Corners – the top-selling UK album of 1998 – reach No.1 on the UK albums chart for the tenth time since its release two years earlier. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – Graham Norton in Ireland in 1963 and actor Robert Downey Jr was born in New York City on this say in 1965 – and these are some of the things he has done. I'll be back with you next week with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

In 1984, a 21-year-old Irish shopworker refused to serve a customer buying two South African grapefruits. Mary Manning was suspended from the Dunnes store in Dublin, and ten of her colleagues walked out alongside her in protest.It was the start of a strike that lasted almost three years, and ended when Ireland became the first western country to impose a complete ban of South African imports.Why did Mary do it? In 1984, she and her colleagues were part of the Irish workers' union, IDATU, which had told its members not to sell items from South Africa. At the time the 11 strikers knew little about apartheid – South Africa's system of racial segregation - but they soon learnt. Their protest would lead to them addressing the United Nations, winning praise from Bishop Desmond Tutu, and meeting with Nelson Mandela.Mary tells Jane Wilkinson about what drove the strikers to continue despite little initial support.(Photo: Strikers outside Dunnes store in Dublin in 1985.

So, you can be sure that the insider tips she shares will get you noticed, enable you to pitch successfully and use physical retailers to reach more people. KEY TAKEAWAYS Building relationships is key to business success. Maintaining a strong network leads to your being presented with amazing, life-changing opportunities. Remember that the person who holds a junior position today could easily become the decision-maker for a big brand at a later date. Your reputation follows you, so don´t be a d**khead. The right culture is essential for building a strong team that will stick with you. If you have a product that you are selling only online, it makes sense to get it into physical stores too. Choose stores that serve the customers you are targeting.  Be persistent. If you send in samples, follow up to make sure that the person who makes the decisions has seen it. Do your pitch in person. You are the most passionate about your brand.  It is all about relationships. If the person you are pitching to can relate to you and your customer base, they will be more likely to say yes. BEST MOMENTS ‘I think it focuses your mind. It starts to focus you on what you actually want. ´ ‘You fail. It´s actually not that bad, you just start again.' ‘Most of the people that I have around me, that have been supportive are people that I have worked with before.'   GUEST RESOURCES https://www.linkedin.com/in/caroline-dalton-68b45729/ VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

Joe's talk of influencers and publicity stunts sparks a memory for Darren of a very interesting school day. He recounts, to an incredulous Joe, how a bear once threw sweets and chocolate bars into the yard during break time, and the two go on a deep dive into Finglas, 2006, to try and find some answers. They recruit some help along the way from eye witnesses who do their best to piece the mystery together, despite distractions like upcoming trips to Dunnes and those apple drops from back in the day.

A sudden cataclysmic event has ended civilisation as we know it. All modern comforts and securities are gone and it's every person for themselves. What do you do? Where do you go first? Do you join a tribe or forge ahead alone? Is your best bet to find an island or a remote mountain hideaway? Darren and Joe try to plot their survival plans in a post-apocalyptic world this week, taking them from the mountains of Munster to islands full of strange creatures, to Dunnes in Charlestown Shopping Centre (of course) and even a misguided attempt to hijack a cruise liner.

Sean was joined for Movies and Booze by Esther McCarthy, Lynda Coogan and Fionnuala Jones, with thanks to Marks and Spencer. Today's wines are listed below: Tio Pepe Fino Sherry €12 - €18.00 widely available in supermarkets; Supervalu, Tesco, Dunnes, O'Brien's, Nolan's. Fino is the lightest style of sherry and is BONE DRY with a salty and almond taste. Made in solera protected from oxygen under a layer of ‘flor' which gives it a unique taste. Nice story about the most popular brand. Ideally paired with savoury nibbles, olives, fried fish, Spanish ham. Serve well-chilled, this style is made to be drunk in its youth while very fresh it doesnt keep at all once open. This style outside of Jerez in southern Spain is slowly becoming more popular Julia Childs Cocktail – Fino Sherry & Gin Fernando de Castilla Amontillado €23 approx Available Searsons, 64 Wines, Whelehans, Donnybrook Fair, Supervalu, Blackrock and Sutton, Baggot Street Wines, Terroirs Slightly off-dry sherry. This wine has deliberately been allowed to be in contact with oxygen so the colour is chestnut. The nose displays more intense nutty aromas. Best paired with salted almonds and charcuterie and olives. Amontillado is a stepping stone into some of the more complex styles of sherry.

Many people claim that because they didn't have a good start in life, they will stay where they are for the rest of their lives. Many people make the error of not understanding that the start of their life does not decide the end. What does it mean when people tell you that you have given up on life halfway through because you didn't do well in the past? It makes no difference what you didn't do yesterday; you have the power to change your life right now. You can start right now to take your life in a completely different direction.Join us for an incredible podcast show with guest Liz Jamieson-Dunne and Hosts Rima Aboulhosen & Alan Bush as she talks about her recent trip to Africa and the story of the people she met.

Even though it's summertime in Europe, Ireland can still be quite chilly and wet. The warmest month this year was probably July. Outside of that, I did need lots of layers. These are the jackets I brought with me this year. The one I got the most mileage out of was my denim jacket with pockets from Zara. it's a little boxier but I really liked how roomy the interior pockets were. I could stick a water bottle in there if I needed to. Sometimes if I went to a concert and wanted to be bag free, this was the ideal jacket. The other indispensable layer was my North Face slim profile vest with zip pockets. This was so easy to layer and gave me the extra warmth that I needed. I also brought a beige microfiber midi-length trench coat from Zara. It's unlined which helps for packing but it still looks more polished for nicer occasions. When it's really cold, like when I first got to Ireland in May, I would wear all my layers. I keep a lightweight pink raincoat from Dunnes at my sister's place in Dublin since it's the only place I travel to that rains that much.   Want answers?
