The Kerry Co-op shareholders meeting last week drew a massive crowd to the Ballyroe Heights Hotel outside Tralee.
A German guest was wondering what all the commotion was, what with cars parked for half a mile in every direction. She asked a few stragglers what was happening upstairs, and was told it was a farmer co-op meeting to discuss what to do about the shareholding in the company. “Are these farmers rich?” she enquired. “Missus, there’s about a billion in shares in that room,” came the reply. “It’s not Mrs, it’s Miss,” she said in return, “and I think I might go for a drink in the bar later on.” Maybe one shareholder got an early dividend!
