Don't mess with success - original Killarney homes still selling

Spurning the trend of "knock down, re-build" that is blighting our fine traditional suburb, a home in Blarney Avenue, Killarney Heights - untouched since 1963 is on sale and expected to go for over a million.



One owner, Mr Kenneth Hall and his late wife Eileen left it in pristine condition including stunning floral patterned carpet.

In a few short years all these "sugar cube" style buildings will be pushed over and replaced with "ranch style" ultra-modern designs where we can park our 12 cylinder hot rods and be happy at last.

Bus stop beautification program begins on Starkey

It looks like a fantastic new program to beautify the bus stops of Killarney Heights has begun with little fanfare on Starkey street this week.


This well kept secret is clearly out. Can't wait for the rest of them to be done.

Killarney advanced driving class graduates

You've no doubt seen participants in the famous Killarney Heights advanced driving classes in our streets - zooming around, popping out of side streets, and skilfully negotiating the Melwood obstacle course.

The class of 2015 has graduated and the winner hit the finish line with great enthusiasm:


In past years the finish was a few doors down, next to the tennis centre. We look forward to safer streets in the years ahead, but beware on the footpaths.

June 2015 Update

It seems that a second class has just graduated a few doors away in the traditional manner:


Congratulations to all concerned.
