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.

Beauty & The Geek star, 34, pictured ‘topless in wedding veil’ in strange stunt days before arrest over partner’s murder

A BEAUTY & The Geek star was reportedly pictured standing half-naked in a wedding veil just days before she was arrested over her partner’s murder.

The TV star, 34, is said to have performed the bizarre stunt just days before police found a corpse when responding to a small fire at the couple’s shared property in Port Lincoln, Australia.

Local cops immediately arrested the reality star in South Australia‘s Eyre Peninsula after finding the man’s body at the blazing house.

The Beauty & The Geek contestant, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was charged with murder shortly after she was taken into custody on Thursday.

It is understood she had moved in with the man just a few months prior to the shocking alleged murder.

Eerie footage has now surfaced reportedly showing the accused killer standing topless at the Port Lincoln war memorial while wearing a white wedding dress-style veil.

The creepy video showed the woman standing motionless and silent at the Garden of Remembrance while holding what appeared to be a sharp object.

A horrified bystander recorded the strange ordeal after noticing the TV show contestant’s haunting behaviour, 7News reported.

Neighbour Jody Miller told the outlet he was one of the first people on scene attempting to put out the fire – while unaware that there was a corpse inside.

He said: “It’s devastating.

“This doesn’t happen in a small town like Port Lincoln.”

He added that he had seen the woman before and told how she was in a relationship with the alleged victim.

“She seemed normal, she was good,” he explained.

Details of the case cannot be revealed for legal reasons, but cops said the burned up home is a complicated scene.

Authorities continue to gather evidence from within the pad, and police are still piecing together the woman’s movements before the man’s death.

Assistant Commissioner Ian Parrott said on Friday that a cause of death had not yet been determined.

And he said that the dead man’s family had not yet been notified.

He said: “There is a range of things at the scene that need to be worked through.

“It is a very complex scene.”

The woman is expected to return to court in December.

She was once a contestant on reality show Beauty and the Geek, according to The Courier Mail.

Another contestant who won the show in 2021 posted online to clarify with those speculating that she was in no way connected to the case.

Kiera Johnstone said on social media about the man’s death: “Although no names have been released, for reasons beyond my understanding, there has been speculation online suggesting that I am involved.

“Let me be absolutely clear: I am not involved in any way. I have not been charged with a crime.”

She added: “As this has nothing to do with me, this will be the only time I speak on the matter.

“Thank you to those who reached out with kindness and common sense.”

Shocking Abuse Case in Samut Prakan: Teacher Chanaphon Konduang Under Investigation

In a distressing series of events unfolding within the peaceful bounds of Samut Prakan, a male teacher is under scrutiny for allegedly committing unspeakable acts against his students. The situation has shaken the local community to its core, as a 31-year-old mother has courageously stepped forward with a harrowing account of what her son, Pae, has endured. Accompanied by his mother, Pae made his way to the Phra Samut Chedi Police Station to report the vile abuse he suffered. His chilling testimony exposed that he was merely one victim in a string of others, revealing that the teacher, later identified as Chanaphon Konduang, proudly displayed photographs and videos of multiple students. The events traced back to a seemingly innocuous invitation on June 13, when Chanaphon promised Pae a brand-new mobile phone in exchange for a visit to his residence at Suksawat-Chulachomklao Fort. Pae recounted the unnerving day when he rode…

Irish tourists heading to Spain warned over ‘almost always fatal’ virus, six signs to watch out for

Illustration of viruses.

IRISH tourists heading to Spain have been warned over a “almost always fatal” virus with six signs to look out for.

Spanish health authorities confirmed that a person contracted the rabies virus earlier this month in the Valencia region.

The disease is considered almost always fatal[/caption]

The case has triggered concern among health officials, as the disease is considered one of the most lethal viral infections known to medicine.

Rabies is a viral disease that primarily spreads through the saliva of infected animals.

It is most commonly transmitted to humans through the bite or scratch of a rabid dog, but it can also spread if an infected animal licks an open wound.

The virus attacks the central nervous system, causing inflammation of the brain and spinal cord.

Early symptoms resemble those of the flu with a fever, headache and discomfort but rapidly progresses to severe neurological complications, including confusion, hallucinations and paralysis.

Once clinical symptoms appear, rabies is “almost always fatal.”

The Spanish Ministry of Health has confirmed that an investigation into the the infection is underway.

The Spanish General Directorate of Public Health said: “In early June 2025, the Valencian Health Department reported a fatal case of rabies in a patient who suffered a dog bite during a trip to Ethiopia in July 2024.

“The case poses no risk to public health as it is transmitted only through bites from rabid animals, and mainland Spain and its islands have been free of rabies in terrestrial mammals since 1978.”

Spain has long been considered rabies-free.

Since 1978, the country has maintained its status as free from rabies, largely due to vaccination programs and strict pet import controls.

However, the government has said there is a risk of imported cases, particularly in regions that border Morocco.

While the country remains at alert level 0 meaning no active terrestrial rabies, certain areas like Ceuta and Melilla in North Africa, are occasionally placed at alert level 1.

The Spanish government’s contingency plan for rabies control states: “According to the Contingency Plan for the Control of Terrestrial Rabies in Captive and Wild Animals in Spain, 2023, Spain is at alert level 0 (no cases of terrestrial rabies).

“In the Autonomous Cities of Ceuta and Melilla, alert level 1 is occasionally activated, due to the risk that imported cases of animal rabies crossing the border from Morocco may come into contact with local populations of feral dogs, leading to local transmission.”

How to avoid catching the disease

Holidaymakers travelling to Spain, particularly those venturing into rural areas or regions where contact with animals is more likely, are advised to exercise caution.

Tourists should avoid touching or feeding stray animals, ensure that any pets travelling with them have rabies vaccinations and seek medical advice immediately if they are bitten or scratched.

In cases of suspected exposure, post-exposure prophylaxis is critical.

This treatment involves a series of rabies vaccines administered over a period of weeks and is nearly 100 percent effective if given after exposure but becomes ineffective once symptoms have developed.

The Health Protection Surveillance Centre advises anyone who suspects they have been bitten by an animal to take “urgent action”.

The HSPC advises that tourists do the following:

  • not approach animals
  • not attempt to pick up an unusually tame animal or one that appears to be unwell
  • not attract stray animals by offering food or by being careless with litter
  • be aware that certain activities may attract dogs (e.g. running, cycling)
