McParlands issue warning over bogus door to door sellers

McParlands of Newry

Newry-based home and hardware store McParland’s have issued a warning about people going door to door in the Louth area selling items and claiming they are representatives of the Monaghan Street firm.

People, claiming to work for McParland’s, have been reported to be selling products door to door in the Louth area in recent days.

However, in a statement via their Facebook page yesterday, McParlands insist that these people have nothing whatsoever to do with them.

They said: “We have been made aware that there have been door to door salesmen selling products from the back of a van in the Carlingford, Castlebellingham, Louth area claiming that they are from McParlands, Newry. We would just like to confirm that these men have absolutely nothing to do with our company and are not selling these items on our behalf.

“If you have purchased anything from these men be aware that they are in no way connected to our company.”

Bloom 2013 got underway today in the Phoenix Park and local gardener Paul Martin has already picked up a gold medal for his large concept garden ‘The Kerry Group/Concern 1,000 Days Garden’ in association with Concern.

Paul has delivered a dramatic Zambian landscape, growing Irish and African foods, which tells the engaging story of 1,000 Days and underpins the importance of kitchen gardens in feeding women – the world’s frontline hunger champions – and children.

Local rugby star Rob Kearney was amongst a number of people who helped Paul prepare the garden for the opening event, which took place earlier today.

The Bloom 2013 event runs until Monday June 3^rd and will also feature Danucci-Ferdia Chocolates from Ardee, who will be displaying their products at the Love Irish Food marquee.

Roses hit the races

This year’s Louth Rose of Tralee finalists

The new Louth Rose will be decided this Sunday, with the finalists having been decided upon in recent weeks.

The Roses were invited to Dundalk Stadium last night to get a taste of what it would be like to represent the county and it’s fair to say that the battle to succeed Patricia Marmion is going to be a close affair.
