G8 chaos on Monday morning

  • So thats it over, no riots or major protests. Just 8000 police on overtime and a U.S WW2 bomb?

    That has to be good news, there was little to gain overall - but quite a lot to lose if there had been trouble. Also good news is that it didn't pish down (as would be normal) and ruin tourism chances.

    So let's hope that Fermanagh can get a bit more tourism out of all this - probably will be quite a boost for Glendalough too with the coverage of the prez's family there.
