Brian O Meara of the barge in The Cut was reminding us yesterday that at least two people have fallen into the river from the old jetty this year. The problem is that the OPW people have stacked a number of floating sections of jetty on the quay which will be used to upgrade the jetty in Clonmacnois in September after the peak season.Contacted the OPW in Athlone today and told them of the accidents.Also suggested that their engineers consider adding floating skirting to the old jetty downstream to make it friendlier for visitors to moor their boats.Tel 090-6494232.
Some results from the weekend. Shannonbridge 3-8 Daingean 0-9.
Roscommon 1-10 Leitrim 0-13 draw. Laois beat Meath by four points.
