I just wanted to say I'm shocked by the closure of Casey's garage. It's been there for generations. I used to live in Roscommon years ago and am really really shocked. It was like part of the family.

In fact i've just looked it up on the internet to find the story and make sure it was really true and it turns out the garage was there since 1925,,

Any locals know what's going to happen to it?

Unfortunately I don't think it will be the only small garage closing around the country this year.

The car industry is in some serious trouble.

It's sad to see all these small businesses closing in smaller towns. We will definitely have a different looking Ireland when this crisis is over
