“CLAREGALWAY FOOTBALLERS ON THE VERGE
OF HISTORY”
Claregalway’s Intermediate footballers are now just “one hour”
away from “Senior Football” as they face Clonbur to decide this years
Intermediate Championship. It has been a year of “ups and downs” for
the team, as they have combined brilliant championship success with in-different
league form. In this years championship they have accounted for Clifden, St.
Grellan’s and Corofin on their way to the final. Many within the club see
this year’s panel as being probably the strongest the Club has ever had.
It would be a momentous occasion for the Club to lift the Intermediate Cup as
it would be the first time in their 35 year history to do so. The final against
Clonbur is provisionally fixed for Sunday 20th October at either Tuam/Pearse
Stadium. The Club are asking everyone in the area to get behind the team and
to “Deck-out” the locality in “Green and Gold”!!

REFLEXOLOGY - Reflexology is preventive health care. Preventive health care
is becoming more important as we realise the health threatening dangers of our
environment such as stress, fatigue, chemical additives in food, polluted water
supplied, radioactivity to name only a few. The added strain on everyone's immune
system today should warn us to find time to unwind. Reflexology seems to help
the immune system.

ACNE
Acne is usually made up of a mixture of different types of spot, often against
a rather greasy background skin. There are inflamed spots, some of which turn
into yellow heads containing pus; blackheads or comedones; deep and tender lumps
are known as nodules or cysts; finally scars which may occur in severe cases.
All of these blemishes are based on hair follicles. Acne usually starts in puberty.
The causes of acne center around the sebaceous (grease) glands. These are most
numerous on the face. They produce a greasy fluid called sebum, and in adolescence
enlarge and produce more sebum in response to rising hormone levels. Testosterone
is the important hormone controlling these glands and the increased levels of
sebum produced can lead to blockage of the pores. This in turn holds sebum back
and this can lead to blackheads and can give an excellent growth medium for
certain bacteria. Increased numbers of bacteria can cause skin irritation and
inflammation, cysts may form and cause scarring. Spots should not be squeezed
or picked as further inflammation and scarring may result. Greasy or oily cosmetics
should also be avoided. Medical treatment while sometimes working quickly in
mild acne can often take a long time to work in severe cases. Antiseptics are
a popular first line treatment, e.g. benzyl peroxide acts by reducing bacteria,
sebum excretion and helps to loosen blackheads. Vitamin A type creams such as
Isotrexin (prescription only) can also reduce both sebum production and blackheads.
Sunlight can improve the skin of most acne sufferers. Antibiotics both topical
and oral are also often prescribed. Hormone therapy and Roaccutane are treatments
also considered by doctors.
Unfortunately there are still a few who have severe acne, which does not respond
to therapy, but on the whole there is now an excellent and ever improving range
of medications to cope with the battle to keep acne under control.

Weather, the most topical of all Irish conversations and what dictates how
successful our year in the garden is going to be! Have you ever noticed how
weather dictates our moods, on a bright sunny day, you can expect to see cheery
smiles, whilst on those dark, dark gloomy days, people are in less buoyant mood,
"more frowns than smiles"!
So it was this summer, a 50% increase in rainfall and less sunshine, so less
time spent in the garden and plants, particularly bedding plants, not doing
at all well. Those dependent on weather, I.e. the farmers, landscapers, growers
all suffered and in the long run so too does our economy as there is less money
in circulation. But then a ray of sunshine in the month of September. What a
marvellous spell of weather and all the jobs in the garden made easier by this
sunny spell. People seeding lawns, planting, spraying, harvesting, pruning etc,
all completed.
So to this month and the tasks to be completed, a month when we start getting
frosts and the days begin to shorten. With this comes the end of the growing
season with plants going into dormancy. It is usually a good time to plant new
material or for moving existing plants.
Lawn mowing can continue at least until the end of the month or until the ground
becomes too soft to support the mower without doing damage. The lawns at this
time of year may need a little bit of intensive care, so apply an autumn lawn
feed to see it through the winter.
The season is coming to an end in the vegetable garden. Many crops should be
removed, otherwise they provide a 'green bridge' for diseases and pests through
the winter. Good hygiene involves composting all old crops and digging the soil
as soon as possible. If some bulky organic manure is dug in at this stage, it
will keep the soil open during the winter while it rots down. Spring cabbage
can be planted now. Root crops such as carrots and swedes can be lifted and
stored. Parsnips are best left in the ground. Maincrop onions are starting to
turn yellow at the tips and should be lifted now. Insert a digging fork under
the bulb and lift them slightly to loosen the roots without breaking them. This
will hasten ripening, but don't bend the tops over as this only invites disease.
Spring bulbs herald the coming of spring and never cease to amaze me, as you
plant them, forget about them and hey presto a lovely surprise in Spring! Bulbs
are cheap, come when you least expect them, return every year and multiply in
numbers. Plant them now and don't forget it is too late to be looking for them
when they are in full bloom next spring. Crocuses are very popular for low planting
in single colours or mixed bunches, in the sun, covered with about 2 inches
of soil. Snowdrops need no introduction, but plant them in a rich free draining
soil. Daffodils are everyones favourites - for very windy locations or tubs
at this time of year, 'Tete a Tete' is a great variety. Tulips are best left
for planting until last to help prevent slug damage. There are the usual old
tall varieties and now lots of dwart varieties for pots. Hyacinths come in two
forms, one for planting out into the garden and one especially prepared for
flowering indoors for Christmas, both having fantastic scent. Hyacinths for
Christmas can be planted early ; singly or in a group of the same colour. Place
them in a dark, cool place in moist garden compost and the buds will begin to
appear after a couple of weeks. Bring them into the light to green them up and
enjoy them after that! Planting depths for bulbs is roughly three times its
own depth, down in the soil and place at least 4-6 inches apart as they do multiply
quite rapidly.
Any bedding plants that get frosted, should be removed. Some of the half hardy annuals can be saved for next year. Don't leave it too late after the plants have been hit by frost. Busy Lizzies, pelargoniums, fuschias, geraniums and osteospernums are all worth saving. Cut the tops back by half, pot them up, remove all old leaves and flowers and leave them in a cold frost free place, otherwise you can bring them into a heated greenhouse or a warm well lit room where they will carry on flowering. Seeds can also be collected off plants at this time of year. Look for brown seed pods, if wet let them dry out on newspaper. Break open the pods and shake out the seeds. Avoid mixing chaff and seeds. Place in a paper bag or tin foil and label clearly for sowing next Spring. What colour can I put in my pots now that the summer bedding is finished? The first answer to this is that the same range of colour is not available in winter as in summer. So do less pots and boxes. Concentrate on areas near front doors, entrances, kitchen windows, etc. - where they will be seen best. Winter pansies, winter violas, spring bulbs, wallflowers, chrysanthemums, polyanthus, winter heathers, skimmia rubella (large red flowers), gaultherra procumbens ( red berries), variegated ivies all offer winter colour. The sooner these are planted the better established they are for winter.
Fruit trees can be harvested now. This has been a bad year for all fruit trees. How can I keep the fruit? Well, use trays with open layers and stack them in that or roll up undamaged fruit in a roll of newspaper and keep in a dark place. Another way is to put apples in a plastic bag and close the top. This builds up the carbon dioxide in the bag. Put two pinpricks in the bag to prevent excess carbon dioxide (carbon dioxide is used in cold rooms/stores). Store the fruit in a cool place and the fruit should last. Apples are the best keepers. Finally FEED ALL fruit trees now with sulphate of potash! One fistful around the base of each tree.
Like everybody else in this world, my day and week revolves around the clock, rushing around oblivious to everything else. This morning before I sat down to write this article, my son on the way to school opened up my eyes, talking about Autumn colour and pointing these things out to me. I was going to write about the kaleidoscope of colours we get in Autumn from different foliage and that would be it in the written word. I wouldn't have slowed down to take time to look at them and marvel how great it is. So this month slow down, take time out and look at the autumn foliage colours all around you. The most popular climbing wall plant at this time of year is the 'Virginia Creeper'," Parthenocissus Veitchi" , a blaze of autumnal colour or its counterpart, the ornamental vine, "Vitis Coignetiae". Two popular shrubs with nice autumn colour are "Rhus Sumach" (Stags Horn) and "Cornus Midwinter Fire", a deciduous shrub with golden stems in the winter after it has lost its autumnal foliage. A plant that can be planted in the garden but can be seen grown in the wild, in the hazel woods all around these parts, is "Euonymous Europaeus". The common spindle as it is known, it has attractive lobed fruits that split open to reveal their orange seeds.
Well, that it for now, happy gardening,
Bosco McDermott, Jnr.,
Glynn's Garden Centre.
P.S. Best wishes to the Claregalway Football panel and management in the upcoming
Intermediate football final. This team are worth supporting and could be a Senior
Football Team in 2003. Good luck lads from all at Glynn's!

MY FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL
The 2nd September I will never forget
The day I started school, not five years old yet.
Cars and people everywhere
Daddy and Mammy by my side
Into my class I go, I try to hide.

CLAREGALWAY INTERMEDIATES PLAYERS PROFILES
Player-Village-Occupation
Barry Donovan Cahergowan Bar Manager
Very talented goalkeeper who has deputised with authority since Brian Donoghue’s
injury. Has conceded only 1 goal in 4 championship games. Has promised “free
Bar” in Spanish Arch should team be successful. Sound Barry!
Brian Donohue Waterview Student
Started the season as No. 2 to Alan Keane in the Galway Senior Panel. Was also
1st choice on County U-21 team. A bad knee injury has limited his appearances
for Club and County. Has very bright future. Will be showing off his All-Ireland
medal at training this week
Kenny Watson Cregboy Company Executive
No nonsense corner back who has had his fair share of injury problems this season.
Time-keeping for early morning training sessions has been exemplary …not!!
(“the alarm didn’t go off Roddy”).
Padraic Walsh Liscaninaune Carpenter
The ‘Manager’s brother-in-law, has been a tower of strength at corner
back. Takes no prisoners and when Padraic puts in the shoulder few forwards
know what hit them!
Pat Stephens Bawnmore Student
Captain of the team who is truly back to his best. Leads by example. Tight marker
on and off the field. Says he'll get all the panel into 'Central Park'. Knows
"bouncers". Sure, they've thrown him out often enough!
Gerry Madden Cregboy Industrial Technician
Very experienced corner back – can always be depended on to give his best.
Tight marking one of his main attributes and likes collecting bits of opponents
shorts and jerseys!!!
Noel Grealish Rock Road Company Director
Another one of the ‘auld lads’ who is still able to show the ‘young
fellas’ a thing or two in training. Another brother of the manager. A veteran
of the ’94 team, Noel still feels he can sort a few corner forwards out!
Also supports the ‘pool’.
Tommy Moran Cregboy Student
Tommy has had a great season at left half back. A player in the “Declan
Meehan” mode, he defends “tigerishly” yet can storm up-field
with a trademark solo run and point! Does not like early morning training sessions.
Says he is more of a “late night man”!
Joe Garrett Cregboy Student
Affectionately known as the “Grunt”. This tough youthful defender
is another future star for Claregalway. Got his first full cap against Corofin
and came through with flying colours.
J.P. O’Connell Cloonbigeen Gas Engineer
Another natural footballer with an abundance of skill. A very versatile performer,
but most effective at wing back. Gave a man of the match performance marking
Derek Savage earlier in the year. Also stars for 'Claregalway Celtic'.
Brian Loughlin Cregboy Electrician
Yet another promising wing back. Very committed trainer with a Roy Keane type
engine. Spies on the drinking habits of the players in the Summerfield Bar.
Reports back to the gaffer!!
Mickey Grealish Tonroe Electrician/Farmer
Brother of the “Gaffer”. Outstanding centre-back. Gave man of the
match performance in semi-final. Models himself on Kieran McGreaney even beginning
to talk with an Armagh accent! Resident C.P. goer, needs to work on his chat
up lines.!
Jack Reynolds River Oaks Company Executive
This much travelled journeyman talks a great game. Likes sunbathing around Salthill.
Favourite film “Serendepity”. Not the same since “Dub” left.
Would love an Intermediate winners medal, would love any medal in fact!!
Padraic O’Connell Cregboy Primary School Teacher
Mr. Versatile, can play anywhere from corner-back to wing forward. Stays running
all day even though it is as the one pace. Still hopeful of a career in “Hollywood”
– a great thesbian.
Stephen Cunniffe Cloonbigeen Student
Another future Claregalway star. Attack minded – wing back. Non drinker,
non smoker, non stuent. One of the so called young lads.
Francis Forde Lisheenavalla Secondary Teacher
'Franny'. Brings a wealth of experience to the Claregalway half back line. Great
natural balance and agility on and off the field, ask Olivia! Enjoys going forward
and post-match pint!
Barry Cullinane Cregmore Student
Member of Galway Minor Team which won this years Connacht Championship. A definite
star of the future. This 6’6’ midfield giant has been a ‘collosus’
this year and Kevin Walsh can retire peacefully knowing Barry’s around!!
Brian Day Cregboy Engineer
A very reliable midfielder who has been a consistent performer all year. Has
taught ‘young’ Barry a trick or two about midfield play. Has attended
135 training sessions since February – this man loves training! Has 10
full International Caps for Inishbofin.
Ronan Flynn Cloonacauneen Computer Engineer
Probably one of the fittest members of the panel. Best position midfield/half
forward. Enjoys a quiet pint in Sally Longs with the rest of the Hell’s
Angels!! Hurled with ‘Cashel’ for a ‘short’ while this year.
Paul Concannon Cahergowan Secondary School Teacher
Paul is no doubt the ‘longest serving member’ of the panel. Now in
his 17th season playing for Claregalway at this level he brings a wealth of
experience to the team, will consider “retirement” only if ‘Senior
Status’ is achieved!
Richard Donovan Lydican Wood Company Rep.
Another ‘elder’ member of the squad – Richard has played in every
position for Claregalway and is now settling down as a “full forward”.
He, along with Paul and Noel are the only survivors of the 1994 winning team.
Likes dancing shirtless after games!!
Mick Derrig River Oaks Company Rep.
This powerfully built Mayo man has been a welcome addition to the panel this
year. Versatile player, at home at full-back or midfield. His son Sean, has
been voted “water-boy” of the year and has attended more training
sessions than some of the players!!
Declan O’Brien Carnmore Cross Company Rep.
An inspirational figure on and off the field. Declan leads the attack from centre
forward and his ‘subtle touch’ coupled with his physical presence
are the driving force of the ‘forward division’. Will treat everyone
to ¼ pounder and chips if we win final!!
Anthony Monaghan Liscaninaune Primary School Teacher
Well what can be said about this man? In ‘full flight’ Anthony is
a truly wonderful footballer – can kick scores comfortably off either foot.
A quiet man off the field. Has been known to let it all hang out every now and
again!!
Enda O’Connell Gortacleva Student
Enda has been our most profilic scorer in this years championship. Got the all
important penalty in the semi-final. Forgiven for missing one in first half:
Can play a bit of soccer too!

the odd crackin’ goal (in training!). Nickname “Minime”, “Pat
eat all the pies”! Ex-trainer of the Intermediates but he assures us he
will be back!
Adrian Moran Lakeview Accountant
“The flying Accountant”. Adrian has been “on fire” in recent
months and has made the number 10 jerey all his own. “Brolly” as he
is effectionately known by the squad has one of the sweetest half boots around.
Known for his “booming” long range efforts. Has lot 6 balls during
training – all gone over the ditch at the “Lakeview end”. Hmmmm?
Martin Kelly Cloon Student
One of the most talented members of the panel. Martin's year has also been plagued
by injury. With 'Red' Kelly around, Claregalway's future is very bright.
Ger Teahon Cregboy Company Rep
The man from 'the Kingdom'. Idolises Pat Spillane! The 'roving full forward'.
Promised to 'kit out' the panel in 'Armani' suits for the final. Said he knew
a guy who did good deals. We're still waiting to be measured up Ger!
Kevin McNamara Rockwood Solicitor
A 'Wonderful Striker' of the ball. Kevin is another man who is back to his best.
Did however recently miss a 14 yard free in front of the posts! We won't forget
that one Kev!
Conor Glynn Lydican Army Cadet
Known as 'veg' to his pals, Conor has just headed off to the join the army.
Great timing Conor! Another future star for the club. We hope he learns to 'shoot'
straight with army!
Gary Dillon Mointiagh Student
Yet another of our young stars who has had his fair share of injuries this year.
Tough, uncompromising defender.
Gary Hurney Lisheenavalla Student
Gary spent the summer 'having a life' 'Stateside'. Very pacey forward who claims

A THOUGHT FOR PARENTS
Those hundred metres outside the school
Where some of our parents act the fool
This past month of September is the worst I can remember
From 9.10 a.m to 9.30 a.m.
They are always in a hurry
Everyone else's children are the least of their worry.
No child can walk a few yards anymore.
They have to be left outside the school door.
Now we in Claregalway have it so good with a great hard shoulder up the Lydican
Road
Also a lovely carpark down near the church
"It's too far away" I hear them all retort
Some of us enfants are very very small
Often we are left with no space at all
Would it not be great if all the drivers moved back a bit
And walked a little, and get fit
Now my Daddy insists that a hundred yards we must walk
It's our last chance each morning to have a nice talk.

as last year. Further details later.
The Annual Craft Fair has been set for Sunday 1st December. The committee are
hoping to build on the success of the last two years. There will also be a cake
sale and raffle on the day, as well as several events for children. More details
to follow in the next issue of Nuacht Chláir.
Committee: Carol Steven (Chairperson) - 798660, Siobhán Lynskey (Secretary)

CLAREGALWAY AMENITY GROUP
A.G.M. 6TH NOVEMBER IN PARISH CHURCH MEETING ROOM AT 8 P.M SHARP.
Claregalway Amenity Group was formed in December 1995 arising from local meetings
which expressed concern over how Claregalway as an area was developing. Since
that time, the following has been achieved:
Provision of 30+ bilingual townland names in Claregalway and surrounding areas.
Restoration of 3 pumps in Claregalway, Montiagh and Cloon.
Provision of bottle and clothes banks in Dunleavey's car park.
Implementation of FAS scheme in November 1996.
Erection of Famine Stone and landscaping area adjacent to Claregalway National
School.
Planting of trees on main road.
Initiated the establishment of the Náionra (Irish playschool) in Claregalway,
adjacent to the Leisure Centre.
Initiated negotiations for the provision of tarmacadan at the Leisure Centre.
Erection of 3 "Welcome to Claregalway" signs on approach roads to
Claregalway.
The biggest achievement the Group completed was the restoration of the 9 Arches Bridge in Claregalway. This was done in conjuction with Galway County Council and the local FAS scheme. The addition of lights under the bridge has enhanced the bridge further.
The above projects were taken on by a voluntary body of concerned people living in Claregalway and it just goes to show what can be done. With all our newcomers to the area, more projects can be undertaken. We have a beautiful Abbey surrounded by the River Clare. We could have river walks along the river banks and a park/tourist office? just one of many many ideas.
For those of you who would like to become involved and make Claregalway a better place to live in, come along to the AGM on Wednesday, the 6th November in the Parish Church Meeting Room at 8 p.m. sharp.
CLAREGALWAY YOUTH CHOIR
Youth Choir will recommence with practice on Wednesday 16"' October - 8.00p.m.
to 8.45p.m
Please come along! As stated before, YOUTH is not defined by age but by state of mind - so everyone is welcome! A lot of effort is put into Youth Choir but the emphasis is on fun. We also strive to learn an appreciation of music and song, together with their enhancement of the Mass.
Our highlight of the past year was the Concert in Church on Sunday 9th June last. It was a very enjoyable concert and the children were simply wonderful. Lots of singing, music and a little dance and mime were the order of the day and we were honoured to be joined by Jimmy Norman of Galway Bay FM and Frank McCaffley, vocalist and musician, who travelled all the way from Westport! A total of 645 Euro was donated at the concert and this money has been given to St. Bernadette's Children's Ward in UCHG.
Finally, many thanks for all your good wishes following my recent "tumble".
My broken ankle is healing well, thank God, and thanks to the wonderful support
of friends and neighbours. 1 have been thoroughly spoiled and will have great
difficulty returning to my normal routine. Thanks, particularly, to my family
Mike, Pat and Emily - they will be glad to see the end of these crutches!

Carnmore U10
Carnmore had an excellent run out in the Castlegar U10 tournament. Clarinbridge
defeated the Carnmore in the semi-final and went on to play Turloughmore in
the final. The youngsters gave a good display throughout the tournament and
were well prepared and coached by Sean Grealish and John Keane. The panel are
awarded medals for their position in the Tournament.
Carnmore U12 County Final
Carnmore 2 –4 St. Thomas’s 3 – 6
Carnmore put up an excellent display in the U12 County Final played at Athenry
at the beginning of August. In a game that was closer than the scoreline suggests,
St. Thomas’s were just physically too strong for a very skilful young Carnmore
side. Carnmore started very well with an early goal but St. Thomas’s took
over during the latter stages of the first half and went in at half time with
a lead scoring a goal just before the break. Carnmore fought back after the
break scoring a second goal but St. Thomas’s immediately hit back with
a goal of their own. From there St. Thomas’s finished the stronger side
and winners.
A very special thanks to Paul Kilgannon who put in special effort with the team
all year, to all the mentors, John Carr, John Fox, Gerry Fox and Andrew Talbot
and to the team “doc” Joe Hennessy.
The committee would like to thank the sponsors of the team.
Juvenile County Representatives
Congratulations to Barry Hanley and Kieran Murray who were chosen to represent
Galway at U16 and Aidan Nally who was chosen at U14.
