The local busybody has been run off her feet keeping track of all her neighbour’s movements during the Covid-19 lockdown.
Maureen Mooney (68) has been spending her days behind the net curtains of the front bedroom with a notepad and a pair of binoculars.
“I’m keeping detailed notes on all the neighbours in my ledgers. I’ve a page for each house and a column for each household member,” said the retired shop assistant.
“That young couple at number 12 went to the shop twice on Wednesday. They’re probably stockpiling vital supplies that could go to the vulnerable.
Speaking of vulnerable, old Jimmy next door, 85 if he’s a day, popped out for a potter around his garden yesterday. He should be ashamed of himself.”
Mooney has offered local Gardai access to her files, but to date all her calls have not been returned.
“The Gardai are a disgrace,” said Mooney “I’m living in constant fear with selfish neighbours playing Russian roulette with my health. The least they could do is arrest a few of them.”
Mooney has refuted allegations that her husband Mickey was amongst eight arrested last week when Gardai raided a lock-in at the Dog Whistle pub.
