Last Show before summerbreak on June 6th


The Wrap Party for the current broadcast season will take place this Friday from 6 – 8pm at the Digital Hub. An outside broadcast unit will be set up from where a special show will be broadcast to cater for both those attending the party and the radio station general audience.

Tommy Coombes, Gerry Kilby & Declan Arthur will present the show

The party will lead right up to WILD TIME being on air at 8p.m. - Because of the expected noise Thomas Janak had to cancel meeting Ruth & Gay from VOICE as previously mentioned. Instead WILD TIME will repeat an interview with the SEALIFE manager recorded earlier this year. Thomas will also be talking over the phone to Sean Meehan from the Irish Wildlife Trust. A run down of all wild time shows will surely bring back memories. So, please tune in from 6p.m. at the latest right through til midnight with WILD TIME happening between 8 and 9p.m.

Pics from the show on May 30th


Belgium born entrepreneur Olivier Van der Elst was talking to WILD TIME host Thomas Janak on yesterday's edition of WILD TIME. Olivier co-founded Greenair where they promote and sell exhaust free, environment friendly cars. Their car, called the REVAI has won prestigious awards so far and is readibly available almost everywhere in Europe.

Olivier, who joined the conversation from a hotel room in Galway, explained the reasons behind the car and the obvious money saving scheme behind it. Also mentioned was a new internet page, Olivier wants people to look at!

Holiday Season - please be kind

My brother sent me this from Germany:

You woke up in the morning, very early, and you packed the bags.
You took my lead – I was so happy, just a little walk before the holidays – GREAT!

We drove for a while and you stopped on the sidewalk of the street. The door opened and you threw a stick. I ran and ran as fast as I could to get the stick to bring it back to you. When I finally got back you were gone!!

In a panic I ran in all directions hoping to find you, I ran and I ran until I was completely exhausted. I was hungry and very afraid.

A man came and put a collar around my neck and soon I found myself in a cage waiting for you to return. But you never came.

The strange man opened the cage again and brought me into a room – it smelled of death! My time was up!

Beloved master, I want you to know that despite all the suffering you put me through I will always remember you. And if I were to be reborn I would return to you because I love you so much!!

……….

This is so heartbreaking and so true.

With the holiday season upon us PLEASE be reasonable and DO NOT ABANDON YOUR PETS
