RACING in Listowel was a rather exclusive affair, only the few allowed on to the Island, older people will remember, that many could not afford to pay the entrance fee and watched the racing from the Market Yard or from a few vantage points. It was good to see the races on TV, the traditional meeting on the Island, nothing could match it.

PARISH RADIO LINK: Plans are currently in place to have Masses from both our Churches Moyvane and Knockanure transmitted on the FM wavelength available on all radios, as people could assemble in their cars in the car parks and listen on their car radio and would be able to receive Holy Communion as well. It is hoped to have the system in place shortly.
FEWER MASSES: Over the last few weeks we have had fewer public Masses. As it is unrealistic to expect stewards to be available every evening and also in keeping with the latest HSE guidelines in reducing our contacts, Masses for the month of October will be on the following days: Saturday Vigil, Sunday morning in Knockanure and Moyvane and Wednesday and Friday evenings. The remaining days I celebrate Mass alone.
FIRST FRIDAY CALLS: Regrettably the house visitation restrictions for First Friday calls are still in place. However, if family members wish to attend any of the Masses, we can give them a pyx to take Holy Communion to their loved ones. It would help us immensely if families are taking up this offer to let Jacqueline know.

More on COVID-19:
Today, as fears of a second wave grow across Europe, it’s fashionable to praise Sweden, with reporters from France, the U.K. and elsewhere traveling to Stockholm to ask about its success.
But a Swedish government commission investigating the handling of the pandemic will, undoubtedly, have hard questions to answer: Did authorities wait too long to limit access to nursing homes, where about half of the deaths occurred? Were they too slow to provide personal protective equipment to staff in those homes when shortcomings in the elderly care sector had long been known? Why did it take so long to set up wide-scale testing?
COST of the apps . Startup NearForm built Ireland’s for 850,000 euros ($1 million) while Finland’s came in under budget at 900,000 euros.
In Ireland, more than 300 people who have tested positive have uploaded their codes, resulting in 900 close contact alerts.
