I wanted to to say thanks to everyone who helped out in the floods.
While I was walking around taking photos, members of the Emergency services (Fire, Gardai and Ambulance) were everywhere, helping. I could see what I think were council workers in high vis carrying radios all over the place, closing roads and helping with traffic.
The workers in UCC who managed miracles in evacuating students, helping to keep the damage to a minimum and who have done so much to get things back on track. The hundreds in the Council who’re working flat out to restore services to the city. The councillors and politicians who have worked outside their remit to help people. And everyone who helped a neighbour, friend or stranger out. It makes me proud to be a corkman. Thanks all of you.
