Cleanup bags, gloves and equipment supplied. All welcome. It's also a reminder for all Tidy Towns supporters to do their little bit to enhance the environment of Gormanston in whatever way they can. Car Break-in A car was broken into in the Gormanston area last week. We would just like to remind everyone to lock up, stay vigilant and stay safe. Julianstown Contact Any news or items of interest contact Niamh at 086 3477283 or email niamhuiloinsigh@ Julianstown Tidy Towns Clean up in Village: Many thanks to our Volunteers for all the work they are carrying out in the village each Saturday. Work is continuing on the beds in the Community Garden at 10.30 am on Saturdays. All equipment needed will be supplied such as gloves, high vis, tools etc., just wear appropriate clothing and footwear. Enjoy a cuppa and a chat afterwards. Community Garden: Many of our volunteers spent Saturday removing the weeds from the pathways, but it was during the week that things really got moving in the garden. Bob, Kevin, Gerard, Omar and Paul started removing hedging, trees, raised beds, plants so that the digger etc can access the garden. All this work needs to be done before mid-August so that we can get a base built for the Gazebo. If you happen to be free any Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday mornings we could use a bit of extra help. Feel free to drop in anytime and see the work as it progresses. We will be erecting an outdoor Gazebo for teenagers in the garden mid-August, and we hope that when the call goes out for some helping hands to get the ground ready and move some plants that residents and teenagers will come along to help. We need to then put in a cement base for the Gazebo and also for some outdoor games tables which should be a fantastic outdoor play area for teenagers. Maybe some of our local teenagers would give a hand during their summer holidays – games will be table tennis, table top football, outdoor games table and a basketball practice area. Sincere Sympathy Condolences and sincere sympathy to the family and friends of Patrick McEnaney, Briarleas, Julianstown after a short illness, surrounded by his loving family. Predeceased by his beloved wife Clare. Loving dad to Shane, Lorna, Elizabeth and Fiachra. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam. Footpaths A new footpath linking Mosney Village to the crossroads at the main Julianstown Road is on the way. We are delighted to hear this and thank Cllr. Sharon Tolan for her request for the introduced at the latest meeting of the Laytown/Bettystown MD . This is urgently needed as there are many residents in Mosney Accommodation and, indeed, local residents using this very unsafe road. The estimate for commencement of this Part 8 process is early 2026. We have on numerous occasions asked the council to install a Bus Shelter at this crossroads as there are many people using the bus service and it is dreadful to think that in this day and age that they must wait in the pouring rain. The Julianstown & District Residents are also requesting that Councillors have a look at the lack of footpaths in Julianstown Village and perhaps they should approve continuous footpaths on either side of the road, especially given that we have Whitecross National School struck right in the middle of the R132. There are two pedestrian crossings in the village, and they are one kilometre apart and now that the schools are closed for their summer holidays it is a free for all vehicles going through Julianstown. Traffic calming for Julianstown is still a long off thanks in the main to Uisce Éireann and yet the council has not installed the speed ramps, which would go a long way to slowing down the speeding traffic. If there are any matters you would like raised concerning the village, please email us at julianstowndca@ or you can contact any member of our committee.

EXCLUSIVE 'He's turning his back on Jeff': New twist in toxic Brazier sons feud revealed by KATIE HIND as insiders tell how Bobby has ALSO fallen out with his parenting guru dad - and become a Hare Krishna
With his cherubic looks, curly hair and broad smile it's little wonder Bobby Brazier was such a hit on Strictly. Indeed, thanks to his distinct similarity to both Harry Styles and Sir , Bobby captivated both young women and older female fans. Add to this his dancing talent and tragic back story as son of the late, much-loved reality TV phenomenon Jade Goody, and it's easy to see why Bobby's star was sent to the stratosphere after he reached the show's final.

Bindi Irwin reacts to brother Robert's viral underwear photoshoot: 'I can't unsee it...'
Bindi Irwin "can't unsee" her brother Robert's underwear shoot. The 26-year-old conservationist - who is the daughter of late Crocodile Hunter star Steve Irwin - recently had to endure her brother Robert, 21, stripping down to his boxers for a promotional deal with Bonds as well as appearing shirtless in his Dancing with the Stars announcement and has found it "rough" to see the whole thing go viral. Speaking on the 'Not Gonna Lie' podcast, she told host Kylie Kelce: "There are some things as his sister that I can't just unsee. "When he did the Dancing announcement, he was shirtless, and when he did his Bonds commercial, he was just in his underwear,r and it is…it is rough." Despite her embarrassment over her brother's sudden sex appeal, she "really is so proud of him" because of how he is managing to get their message of conservation out there, what she is choosing to focus on. She said: I really am so proud of him. He's taking the message of conservation to new heights. He's really nailing the, 'Hey look over here,' and steering them in the right direction. "I was probably liking and commenting on his 'steering in the other direction' posts. Rather than his um... "Watching him grab people's attention in such a big way. 'And then pivot and say, 'Here's what we do, here's our work, here's our dedication to wildlife and conservation and you can get involved.' It is wonderful and extraordinary to watch him shine.' The Crikey It's The Irwins star is "a little bit scared" of some of her brother's female fans but still thinks her brother is "doing really well" with how he is coping with all of the sudden attention on his body. She said: "Do I get a little bit scared of the women and girls and some guys who are very intense? It can be a lot! But he's doing really well with all of it and I am very proud of him." Robert recently explained that his new campaign may seem "out of the ordinary", he is appreciative of the "platform" he has so that he can continue to get the message about conversation out into the world. He said: "It seems so out of the ordinary for what I would do, but I get to be with Aussie Wildlife, I get to approach a new audience, a new platform, and get my wildlife conservation message out there to more people. And that is what means so much to me and my family. "I'm representing Australia! So I wanted to look my best and to feel my best and just feel really confident. And so I've done more sit-ups and had less carbs than I ever have in my life, but it's been fun.. "At Australia Zoo, our beautiful wildlife sanctuary, it's great, I've got about 700 acres to just run. So I've been doing a lot of sprints, a lot of hill sprints. "My brother-in-law Chandler, he's a professional athlete so he gave me a lot of great tips. And my mom actually did bodybuilding! She had more biceps then than I'll ever have."
