Last month, the Annals of Inisfallen, a medieval manuscript synonymous with Killarney, was temporarily returned to Ireland for the first time in over 40 years. The texts have been housed at Oxford for more than 250 years. Through an arrangement with Oxford University, the manuscript can now be viewed at a free exhibition at UCC until November 1st. Jerry spoke to Chris Doyle who is a lecturer in medieval history at the University of Galway. He says the annals don’t belong in a British library.
Jerry spoke to Seanad leader Garret Ahearn of Fine Gael, who intends to introduce legislation that will give councils the power to stop vape shops from proliferating across the country.
