About me:
Galway Water is in a Crisis!Come along and join our campaign.
AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT THE TOURISTS SEE
beautiful eh?
We want a long term solution to this environmental debacle.We love Galway and we know that this sentiment is shared by all who live and visit here. We believe that good water quality is a fundamental human right and that at the moment Galway's water quality is falling far short of international requirements. We see a solution to this crisis. We feel the best way to achieve this solution is to set up an independent group of specialists to oversee the clean up of the Corrib which is the source of the water problems in Galway. If anyone is interested in being part of this group, please contact us.
We want the city officials to face the public for a forum on this issue. We have written to them and the HSE and EPA to request this. We will keep you posted if we hear anything back from them.We have had some response - see below
Mr. Joe Mcgrath refuses to meet the Galway Public and denies his Staff the right to do so either

Thanks to each and every one of you. You are proof that there is still community spirit in Galway!
Show the powers that be we will not stand for this disgraceful situation. Lets collectively clean up the water in Galway by showing some people power
Here we are in the furthest western point of Europe on an island, rains a lot, no big petrochemical industries etc and yet we can't drink our water! It’s not just the council officials and dept. of environment to blame; it's the complacency of the people of Galway! We all need to get off our a****s and do something about this. The powers that be have to be pushed into action. 90,000 people in Galway cannot drink the water, cannot brush their teeth in it, are unsure if they can shower or wash their dishes in it; 90,000 people are uninformed about this and are becoming increasingly worried about infection; 90,000 people will not go away!!!!!

10 of 109MoreHi ,
Its been a while and we thought it was about time we updated you on what we've
been up to. Our debut EP Little World is now available at our gigs and will
soon be available from our myspace and facebook pages, you will also be able to
download it from itunes, but we don't have a release date for this as yet.
To celebrate the fact that we have now reached 25,000 plays on myspace, we are
giving you a free MP3 of Rockabye Baby. All you have to do is send your email
address to queen.elvis@yahoo.ie and we will send it to you.
We have spent the last year rehearsing with a full band and are now ready to
bring it on the road. You can get a look at us when we appear on Balcony TV
this week with the full line up. We are currently taking bookings for
gigs/concerts/festivals and can be contacted on the email above, or through our
myspace and facebook pages.
Thankyou for your continued support in what has been a great year for us!
Best Wishes
Caroline and Colin

Galway's Cool Water!
LOUD CHEERS FOR THE POLITICAL GENIUSES FROM ALL PARTIES WHO THROUGH DITHERING CONTRIBUTED TO THE POISONING OF OUR WATER.
By the way, why did we vote the same crew back again and again?
Cool Water (Bob Nolan)
All day I face the barren waste
Without the taste of water, cool water
Old Dan and I with throats burned dry
And souls that cry for water, cool, clear, water
The nights are cool and I'm a fool
Each star's a pool of water, cool water
But with the dawn I'll wake and yawn
And carry on to water, cool, clear, water
The shadows sway and seem to say
Tonight we pray for water, cool, water
And way up there He'll hear our prayer
And show us where there's water, cool, clear, water
Dan's feet are sore he's yearning for
Just one thing more than water, cool, water
Like me I guess he'd like to rest
Where there's no quest for water, cool, clear, water...
Keep a-movin' Dan don't ya listen to him Dan
He's a devil of a man and he spreads the burning sand with water
Dan can you see that big green tree
Where the water's running free
And it's waiting there for you and me?
And Water Cool Clear Water
Hello to you my friend! My comment is to bring,to debate,issues I feel are very important,concerning the lisbon treaty.Below are a three videos. The first is very short(3 min)and is of an MEP who sees the "Totalitarian nature of this treaty"
The second is a documentary called "The real face of the European Unio" which is very important as it outlines, once again by MEP's,"An unsettleing Agenda" from an EU that is "Rotten to the Core"
..
The Third is from a group of Irishmen. "End of Nations". It is an excellent documentary and it outlines the Lisbon treaty in full.Once again interviews with MEP's. Just be prepared to be a little shocked.
..
I'd encourage you to repost this comment If you feel it is of value. I will be posting a bulletin with the details and code of this comment.Press reply to bulletin, copy and paste the message, then repost as a comment.Thanks for taking the time to read this! Baz.....
