A special emergency meeting of the local residents association was held on Monday night last 7th January 2013.
The meeting was called at short notice, caused by a rush of blood to the head, by our Chairman MMMattie.
The only item on the agenda was the official name change of the area .
Our area from hence forth will be known as Lanzarote, Co Tipperary.
MMMattie's proposal was based on the fact that Christmas day produced one of the highest temperatures recorded in 2012. Evidence supported by the above photo.
Now being a quick mover, MMMattie reckoned that with the community hall recently painted, it was only a matter of convincing the local pub to wash the glasses before filling them, and , to periodically sweep the floor. Then add in the sunshine, the natural charm of the locals and we could legitimately boast of a tourist mecca.
The icing on the cake would be the new address, Lanzarote, Co Tipperary.
It was a no brainer. MMMattie was thanked profusely from the floor ( Tommy , drunk again), the motion was passed and all went on their merry way mumbling " Lanzarote, Co Tipperary.....by gob "
Next meeting will discuss how to get grants to build a B&B.
