From the it's an ill wind and all that department: Following The Examiner's piece yesterday morning we've had two mentions on 'What it Says in the Papers', the bould Gerry gave us a nice bit of notoriety as well, The Evening Herald picked it up, MidWest Radio did an interview. Telephone calls from all over! The California Madames' site won't know what hit it with all the extra hits we've given it! No such thing as bad publicity? (Of course as far back as last March we ran an item ourselves on 'Notorious Castlebar' on the Weird and Wonderful Castlebar pages comparing the dot com sites of all the info age towns. We also had an item about the real red light district of Castlebar!)
Anyway October's hits came to 132,000 excluding our search engine etc. This is up again by about 20,000 on the previous month - thanks to you all again for the continued support.
BTW go easy on Gerry - we were only joking! The poor man has a job on his hands at the moment with a new baby and all!
