Well, I've heard it all now....
The new road linking Cork to Killarney is going to be re-routed because ecologists have found Killarney slugs in Cascade Wood in Ballyvourney. This road was to be built over 30 years ago and is a disgrace between Macroom and Killarney. The new GREEN Minister has said absolutely no to the slug destroyers!
Slugs?
The re-routing will cost a fortune! A fortune!
For slugs?
I know this wood. It's about 2 acres in size only. It's wild.
A big scelp of it was cut out of it only a few weeks ago for a prominent local politician's son to build a house on it.
Where were the slugs then?
Another well-connected fella cuts timber from it for his wood-burning stove!!!
What about the Slugs? Who will save the slugs from the builder? the chainsaw? the stove????
I listened to a programme about it on RTE Radio 1 tonight - The Green Light or something it's called. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The fabulousness of the slug was mentioned many times, and the ferns and the trees...... Some ecologist lady said how marvellous it is that the locals are full behind the protection of the slug and the wood..... No, they're not! They think it's a load of crap!
Spending possible millions to save a fecking slug?
I'm all for protecting our environment, but this is derisory!!
A slug, like??
Ah g'way from me wudja!

ignoramous! what a stupid comment. re-routing won't cost a fortune. about time that our government took our heritage seriously.
Ignoramous? Moi? No! An anonymous commentator who cannot punctuate a sentence - now that's ignorant.
