THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”
The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.

FERNE McCann’s next move is “make or break” following a difficult few months for the TV star.
In a shock result for the 34-year-old, Ferne crashed out of Dancing on Ice on Sunday night.
RexFerne McCann is looking ahead of her future in the industry[/caption]
The popular series was expected to help Ferne relaunch her career since quitting her ITVBe reality show and closing her business last year.
According to brand and culture expert Nick Ede, Ferne’s nextsteps are vital in securing her position in the industry, but insists: “She’s enterprising and popular so she will bounce back very soon.”
He told The Sun: “With Ferne leaving her business, cancelling her popular reality show it feels like she put all her eggs in one basket with Dancing On Ice and this could be a make or break situation for her.
“She has had a pretty turbulent life both on and off camera but she has always had a loyal fanbase and through adversity has become a successful businesswoman and Tv personality but since she parted ways with her wellbeing app shoorah and her long running TV show all eyes have been on her on Dancing on Ice.
“I think that that it was a huge surprise that she was let go so early on in the show as both the audience and judges loved her progression.
“However, with her crashing out so soon she wont be getting the air time or building her popularity again as much as she will have wanted to.
“She is one of the few Towie stars that have lasted a long time in reality TV world and she is still very popular with the press.
“Her next move will be interesting.
“She’s amassed a huge net worth of over three million but Dancing on Ice was a bit of a make or break moment for her.
“It was a prime time opportunity for her to widen her popularity and to cement herself as a popular star.
“She may decide to give reality another go and follow in the footsteps of chloe sims who has become a worldwide star or she may just decide to settle down with her fiancé.
“I don’t think is the last we have heard from Ferne and I’m sure she’s planning a fly on the wall wedding show or a new business venture.”
Last year Ferne gave up control of the wellbeing business she runs with her fiancé Lorri Haines.
The Towie legend relinquished her power in the business partnership, according to a new filing with Companies House.
With Ferne crashing out so soon from Dancing on Ice, she wont be getting the air time or building her popularity again as much as she will have wanted to.
Nick Ede
It came just weeks after she shocked fans when she announced she had quit her ITVBe show Ferne McCann: My Family & Me, previously called Ferne McCann: First Time Mum, series after 13 series.
Her statement read: “After an incredible 13 series I have made the very difficult decision that this series of @fernemyfamandme will be my last.
“Where do I begin? Firstly by saying a huge, huge thank you to each one of you that have watched my show and been on our family journey with us.
“This show has been such an incredible part of my life for the last seven years and what a ride it has been filming from being pregnant with Sunday to now.
“Your support and loyalty to me and my family has, at times, lifted me more than you will ever know. Thank you.”

A LALIGA footballer and his wife reportedly had a gun pointed at them during an armed robbery of their home.
Athletic Bilbao forward Alex Berenguer, 29, and model and aerospace engineer Sofia Jem were targeted at their villa in Mungia, in the Basque country, on Monday night.

According to El Correo in Spain, three armed men wearing balaclavas attempted to break in.
The report adds that Berenguer managed to close a glass door which stopped the trio from entering.
It is then claimed that a gun was aimed at both Berenguer and Jem.
Thankfully, the shocking ordeal ended as the footballer was able to alert the police during the attempted raid and the robbers fled.
Spanish authorities launched an investigation.
It is understood neither Berenguer nor Jem were injured in the raid but are both likely heavily shaken up.
Neither have commented publicly just yet.
Berenguer came through the youth academy at Osasuna then joined Torino in 2017.
The Spaniard spent three years in Italy before returning to his homeland, signing for Bilbao in 2020.
Berenguer scored the winning penalty in last season’s Copa del Rey final shootout victory over Mallorca – ending the club’s 40-year trophy drought.
Despite the key moment, his contract technically ran out for a week last summer – briefly making him a free agent – before signing a new deal with Bilbao until 2027.
He has racked up 32 goals in 199 games – and could make his 200th appearance in Thursday’s Europa League clash with Viktoria Plzen or against Real Betis on Sunday.
Bilbao are enjoying a fine season, sitting fourth in LaLiga and third in the Europa League.

GINA Knight finally confesses who she slept with at Christmas in EastEnders, and the revelation threatens to shatter her already fragile family.
Tuesday’s episode of EastEnders revealed a shocking twist as Gina (Francesca Henry) confessed to being the one who threw the brick and left the threatening note, aiming to scare her mum, Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins).
BBCAll eyes were on Gina as she confessed to throwing the brick and threatening note[/caption]
BBCBut did she attack her mum?[/caption]
So all eyes were on the young woman to prove she wasn’t also the Christmas Day attacker.
Gina explained that she knew her dad George Knight (Colin Salmon) had not been at an illegal fight that Christmas night.
So she threw the brick to misdirect the police towards the Fords, who were previously after Cindy.
George urged Gina to stop protecting him, but with Ian ready to call the police, Gina turned to Cindy in a desperate bid to plead her case.
Gina protested that she couldn’t have attacked her mum as she was having a one-night stand.
But Cindy struggled to believe her and demanded to know who her mystery man was.
Gina finally broke down and admitted she’d slept with her sister’s boyfriend Freddie Slater (Bobby Brazier) – right as Anna Knight (Molly Rainford) walked in with him.
Can Anna forgive her sister for her betrayal? Or is the family destroyed forever?
And was George on the night of Cindy’s attack?
Meanwhile, Sonia Fowler (Natalie Cassidy) is onto Reiss Colwell (Johnny Freeman) about seeing Bianca Jackson’s (Patsy Palmer) confession to Debbie Colwell’s (Nicola Duffett) murder.
She is adamant that her sister couldn’t have killed Debbie and thinks she lied to get her out of prison.
Reiss is desperately stalling and trying to convince Sonia that Bianca was telling the truth.
Will Sonia see the video and Debbie’s dollhouse in the background to reveal Bianca’s true whereabouts?
EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One and is available to watch from 6am on BBC iPlayer.
Best soap affair love triangles
LOVE triangles are a fundamental part of soap-land, but which ones have become the most iconic?
EASTENDERS
Bradley/Stacey/Max: Stacey Slater began an affair with boyfriend Bradley Branning’s dad Max in 2007.
Despite their romps, Stacey still married Bradley, but their deceit came out in an iconic Christmas Day episode that year.
Grant/Sharon/Phil: Heading even further back in Walford history, EastEnders fans were gripped in the 90s as Sharon Watts had a one-night stand with her brother-in-law Phil Mitchell.
Sharon confided in best friend Michelle Fowler – not realising it was caught on tape – and her husband Grant eventually found out and played it in front of everyone at the Queen Vic.
Syed/Amira/Christian: Syed Masood was engaged to Amira before realising he had feelings for another man, Christian, which he confessed to him on his wedding day.
A devout Muslim, Syed refused to admit his true sexuality and went ahead and married Amira anyway, but when they returned, the two men started an affair before being caught in the act by Amira.
CORONATION STREET
Shelley/Peter/Lucy: Peter Barlow took the concept of a love triangle and ran with it in Coronation Street – extending it to bigamy.
He was in a relationship with Shelley Unwin but started dating Lucy Richards, and quickly married her after she fell pregnant with his son, Simon.
But it didn’t stop him also marrying Shelley, but he was eventually caught when Lucy turned up in Weatherfield and the two women confronted him.
Ken/Deidre/Mike: Back in 1982, Deirdre Barlow started sleeping with her husband’s nemesis Mike Baldwin in secret, before confessing all a year later.
When Mike turned up at the marital home, Deirdre was being throttled by her husband who then kicked her out, but years later they reconciled.
Maria/Aidan/Eva: In 2017, Aidan Connor started sleeping with girlfriend Eva Price’s best friend, Maria Connor.
Eva eventually found out and she decided to take revenge by faking a pregnancy, spending his money and planned to confront him on their wedding day.
But she had a change of heart when a remorseful Aidan confessed, and decided to marry him anyway, only for Maria to arrive and expose her fake pregnancy.
EMMERDALE
Ross/Debbie/Pete: Debbie Dingle found herself torn between two brothers, Ross and Pete Barton in 2015 in Emmerdale.
She eventually decided to marry Pete but yet again, a soap wedding day was ruined when the groom learned of his bride’s betrayal via a recording played at the wedding.
Chrissie/Robert/Aaron: Robert Sugden was married to Chrissie White and all seemed well – until he began a steamy affair with Aaron Dingle.
Robert’s ex Katie Sugden almost exposed the affair – but fell to her death before she had the chance.
However, a guilty Aaron eventually cracked and told Chrissie about the affair – after which she announced it to the whole pub.

EIGHT hostages due for release have been killed during their cruel imprisonment by Hamas, Israel says.
The captives appear to have died in the tunnels beneath Gaza during their sick 15-month long detention after they were snatched on October 7, 2023.

HandoutTragically, Hamas claimed three of the family had died in an Israeli airstrike[/caption]
Some 33 of around 90 hostages were set to be traded back to Israel as part of the first phase of a ceasefire deal inked earlier this month.
Israel said it was informed of the eight deaths on Sunday night by Hamas when it was given a list of the 33 that would be released.
It is not yet clear who the eight deceased are as Israeli hostage families desperately cling on to hope.
Hamas claims the other 25 in the swap are still alive with the next release of hostages takes place on Saturday.
Seven in the group of 33 have already been returned home.
Families of the hostages have been left in an agonising wait to see whether their loved ones have survived.
One of those families is the Bibas, who don’t know whether Kfir and Ariel, just two and five years old when they were snatched, are still alive.
The children, along with their parents Yarden and Shiri, are all on the list ofare on the list of hostages to be releasedin the first six-week phase of the fragile ceasefire.
Relatives are yet to hear any news on whether the family could be dead or alive.
In a statement on Monday, the Bibas family said it still held on to hope.
They said: “We said then and we say now, we hold on to hope and await their return. We await certainty regarding their condition.
“The list that Hamas passed on to Israel regarding the status of the kidnapped is not a list of names and does not change our position. Neither a list of names, a Hamas statement, nor any video of this or that kind – are certain for us.”

The terms of the deal state children and female captives would be released first.
Israel accused Hamas of breaching the peace deal after the terror group released four women IDF soldiers instead of civilian hostage Arbel Yehoud.
In response, Hamas pledged to release two more woman, but did not again mention Shiri Bibas and her children.
The first phase of the ceasefire runs until early March and will see 33 hostages released by Hamas and 2,000 Palestinian prisoners released by Israel.
The exchanged come as thousands of displaced Palestinians are returning home to the north of war-ravaged Gaza.
Israel had prevented Palestinians from returning to northern Gaza, accusing Hamas of violating the terms of the truce, but Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said late Sunday they would be allowed to pass after a new agreement was reached.

Israel had said it would prevent Palestinians’ passage to the north until the release of Arbel Yehud, a civilian woman hostage who it maintained should have been freed on Saturday.
But Netanyahu’s office later said a deal had been reached for the release of three hostages on Thursday, including Yehud, as well as another three on Saturday.
Hamas had said blocking the return of Palestinians amounted to a truce violation.
Large crowds of people moved through the now-open Netzarim Corridor into the north, watched over by Israeli tanks.
Some pulled carts weighed down with mattresses and other essentials while others carried what belongings they could.
What happened on October 7?
ON OCTOBER 7, 2023, Hamas launched a brutal surprise attack on Israel, marking one of the darkest days in the nation’s history.
Terrorists stormed across the border from Gaza, killing over 1,200 people — most of them civilians — and kidnapping 250 others, including women, children, and the elderly.
The coordinated assault saw heavily armed fighters infiltrate Israeli towns, kibbutzim, and military bases, unleashing indiscriminate violence.
Innocent families were slaughtered in their homes, and graphic footage of the atrocities spread across social media, leaving the world in shock.
And as well as attacking people in their homes, they stormed the Nova music peace festival – killing at least 364 people there alone.
The massacre triggered a swift and massive retaliatory response from Israel, escalating into a full-scale war.
The attack not only reignited long-standing tensions in the region but also left deep scars on both sides of the conflict, setting the stage for the 15 months of devastation that followed.

SLOWLY lifting her head off her sweat-drenched pillow, Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace vomits into the sick bucket next to her bed.
It is the third time in just 10 minutes she has thrown up.
Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace has admitted buying and using fake Ozempic jabsNews Group Newspapers LtdThe former Big Brother star has been left with blurred visionNews Group Newspapers LtdAisleyne feared she was going to die after using the botched fat jabsNews Group Newspapers Ltd
But the 45-year-old former Big Brother star hasn’t been struck down with a seasonal sick bug.
No, her debilitating condition is a harrowing side effect of the fake ‘Ozempic’ jabs she bought off the black market.
“I know I can be dramatic but I thought it was the end of me. I thought I was going to die,” she tells Fabulous.
“It was awful. I was on my own and I couldn’t leave my bed for days.
“I had thrown up three buckets of vomit, then I had diarrhoea; I could barely make it to my bathroom.”
Aisleyne is no stranger to plastic surgery, having gone under the knife for a £10,000 Brazilian butt lift, liposuction, Botox, fillers and a breast augmentation with size 900CCC implants – which is the largest you can get in the UK.
But she admits her latest quest for body perfection nearly cost her her life.
Like thousands of women who are targeted hourly on social media with ads selling Mounjaro, or Ozempic, Aisleyne believed that she was buying was safe.
This is an issue for many people as fake accounts have become widespread on social media, with chancers on the black market posing as professionals and selling weight loss jabs that aren’t regulated.
In September last year, explosive demand and high prices for weight loss and diabetes drugs fuelled a criminal effort to package autoinjector pens containing other substances, such as insulin.
In 2023, the U.S Food and Drug Administration announced that they had seized “thousands” of fake Ozempics.
That same year, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) also confirmed a number of potentially fake Ozempic pens in the UK.
The MHRA warned that buying a prescription-only medication online without the prescription poses a direct danger to health – this came after they received reports of a number of people having been hospitalised after using potentially fake pens.
Additionally, further analysis found the needles from the samples are counterfeit – as the sterility of the needles cannot be confirmed, which presents an increased risk of infection for patients.
Instagram/Aisleyne Horgan-WallaceAisleyne was targeted by adverts on Instagram that look similar to this[/caption]

Aisleyne resorted to buying counterfeit slimming jabs on Instagram after she too was targeted by adverts when she found herself in a “dark place” last year.
In quick succession, her best friend Femi died of a heart attack, and her nephew Jordan sadly passed away three months later in his sleep.
She says: “I was in a really bad place mentally having lost the two closest people to me, and I was eating my feelings. I couldn’t stop eating high fatty food like cheese.
“I ended up putting on two stone in weight. I wasn’t leaving my house and I was inhaling food. I hated my body. Then I came across these weight loss jabs online, and I thought I’d just go for it.”
Ozempic is a prescription injectable medication used to treat type 2 diabetes in adults. It is also known by its generic name, Semaglutide.
It helps lower blood sugar by helping the pancreas make more insulin.
While not approved for weight loss, it can reduce appetite and slow down how quickly the stomach empties.
I often get people and accounts messaging me directly saying that they sell it
Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace
It has risen in prominence as a weight loss aid after celebrities including Oprah Winfrey, Sharon Osbourne and Amy Schumer admitted using it.
Aisleyne found a “practitioner” selling Semaglutide on Instagram and says she didn’t consider the dangers.
“I just thought they must be the same as what the NHS prescribes, just different packaging. I was so naive,” she recalls.
“I often get people and accounts messaging me directly saying that they sell it.
“This specific user was a private account in the UK and a few friends of mine had gone to them.
“And because I looked at her account and saw she was qualified in aesthetics, I thought it should be fine. How wrong I was.”
Aisleyne came across a private Instagram account that claimed to be selling OzempicInstagramAisleyne was advised to use the lowest dose for four weeks and then increase it “if needed”instagramThe reality star’s weight dropped from 12.5 stone to 9 stoneOlivia West
Aisleyne paid £300 for four syringes, which she injected once a week for eight weeks.
According to click2pharmacy, the cost of Semaglutide per month can vary based on the dosage prescribed, but on average can cost, £229.99 over a five month period.
She was advised to use the lowest dose for four weeks and then increase it “if needed.”
“I had just started taking it around my nephew’s funeral in August, and I was on them for two months.” she explains.
“At first, I was scared, but then I thought to myself, it’s like fasting as you skip meals because it suppresses your appetite, and fasting is supposed to be good for you – so I stuck with it.
“For the first couple of weeks, I thought it was great. I had loads of energy. I wasn’t overeating, and when I did eat, it was healthy, like high protein foods, vegetables and meat.
It was absolutely petrifying, and I knew I needed to call 999, but I couldn’t move my body or even see anything
Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace
“I wasn’t starving, so I didn’t reach for the bad quick foods; I was more conscious about it. I wasn’t having any side effects, so I just continued.”
Aisleyne quickly went from a size 14 to a size eight, and her weight dropped from 12.5 stone to 9 stone.
“Obviously having the weight drop off me felt great, especially as I barely did anything,” she recalls.
But at the end of the second month, she took a turn for the worse.
She says: “I was sick and suffering from diarrhea for four days, whilst not eating or drinking. If I had a sip of water, I would throw it up straight away.
“It was absolutely petrifying, and I knew I needed to call 999, but I couldn’t move my body or even see anything.

InstagramShe hadn’t worked out for a year due to grieving loved ones[/caption]
“My vision was so blurry, and my body had gone limp. I didn’t even have the energy to even think; it was like I was in a coma, where I’d just wake up to be sick and then fall back to sleep again.”
Aisleyne knew she needed to seek medical advice but felt too embarrassed to go to NHS doctors because she felt her condition was self-inflicted.
“I was battling with myself, and I didn’t know what to do because I was too embarrassed,” she says.
Instead she took electrolytes and coconut water to re-hydrate herself, and slowly she began to feel normal again.
But to this day, Aisleyne continues to experience side effects including her right eye being blurry, as well as further weight loss up until December.
She says: “Months later, even though I stopped taking it, the weight was still dropping off me for weeks afterwards.
“And now even still to this day, my right eye is still blurry. I also keep getting migraines.
This is why girls turn to the black market, and so it’s important to get the message out
Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace
“I definitely took a bad batch as I don’t know anyone else who has suffered the same – it’s been absolutely horrific.
“I saw my surgeon and told him about my sight he looked at my eyes and said to go to see optician once I was home but to be honest I still haven’t.”
Due to the dramatic weight loss, Aisleyne was left with sagging skin – and so she booked herself in for a £12,700 neck, jowl and boob lift with Dr Orman at the Trio Clinic, to get rid of the excess skin that was left behind.
“After waking up in a haze and losing all this weight, all I could see was skin as it hadn’t had a chance to snap back,” she says.
“It was like taking the air out of a balloon and it was all saggy.
“Obviously my implant was up high, and my natural boob had just sort of depleted and was down the bottom.
“Then my face just got saggy.”
Aisleyne is now back to her normal weight of 10 stone, and is currently recovering from her surgery.

On fake jabs, she warns: “I don’t want people to make the same mistake as I did.
“It is so easily accessible, and I should hope that if I had gone through the NHS I wouldn’t have been prescribed it because I wasn’t diabetic.
“This is why girls turn to the black market, and so it’s important to get the message out.
“Every other celebrity is just walking around looking skeletal, glorifying it, but it’s not a good example for young kids.
My warning is don’t do it. Get into the gym. Have a healthy lifestyle
Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace
“I’m not squeaky clean myself, but I think where health’s concerned, it’s really important to get the truth out, and especially don’t go on the black market for it.”
She is now urging others to be vigilant before jumping the gun and getting these weight-loss jabs.
More importantly, she wants those thinking about it to seek medical advice first.
Aisleyne says: “My warning is don’t do it. Get into the gym. Have a healthy lifestyle.
“I know it’s boring and it sounds long, but nothing is worth losing your life, your sight or your faculties over.”
Ozempic - an expert's view
Dr Mitra Dutt, a GP from Lloyds Pharmacy Online Doctor, says: “Mounjaro works by activating two hormonal receptors (GIP and GLP-1), which enhance insulin production, improve insulin sensitivity and work to decrease food intake.”
Saxenda, which contains the active ingredient liraglutide, is another weight loss jab that’s been available on the NHS since 2020.
While Mounjaro is hailed as the “King Kong” fat jabs, a new weight loss drug dubbed “Godzilla” looks set to displace it.
Containing the active ingredient retatrutide, slimmers trying the drug lost up to 29 per cent of their weight in less than a year.
By comparison, trial results showed semaglutide, known as Ozempic, could lead to 15 per cent weight loss and tirzepatide, aka Mounjaro, to 23 per cent.
Retatrutide acts on three different receptors in the brain, “turbocharging” calorie burning while dulling hunger pangs.
Existing weight-loss jabs only suppress appetite, whereas the new treatment also speeds up metabolism.
The new drug is still undergoing clinical trials so it’s not yet known if it will be made available on the NHS.
