An accident waiting to happen...again! But these good folk are doing something about it!
Good morning! It's been a relatively quiet week. The Twelfth week does tend to be that way but we've still had plenty happening. With the weather threatening to hit the 30 degree mark early next week, it's a timely reminder of the dangers of quarries, and in particualr, Navan Quarry. Keith Kelly was the disused quarry's fifth victim back in April. Last night, two life rings were installed at the site - with eight more on the way! But they were installed against a backdrop of kids running along the quarry cliff edge...
Here's what we've had on the website over the last few days..
And enjoy the weather, as safely as you can :)
