FORECASTERS say snow will return to Donegal this week.

BBC, RTE and online forecasters all say the county will be hit with the white stuff on Tuesday.

And it may even linger into Wednesday as wintry conditions continue to bite into spring.

Peter O’Donnell from Irish Weather Online said: “We have issued an alert for widespread hail or snow showers the next several days and a slight to moderate risk of heavy accumulations of snow in northern and central (inland) counties mid-week, not just on hills but at lower elevations.

“Although it’s later in March than the previous event, this one has less dry air to overcome and an abundant supply of moisture. Counties north of a line from Galway to Dublin (and in particular inland parts of Ulster) could see some significant snow cover developing especially around Wednesday.”

It will be cold overnight with a risk of ice on many roads on Monday morning.

And it looks like the cold weather will continue through into next weekend – with even more snow possible.

With plans for the many events during the Derry/Londonderry UK City of Culture continuing to gather momentum, local councils and private companies are putting the final touches to their planned events and parties.

So, is this the time to remind event organizers and party planners (not forgetting the local residents groups) of the dangers of not having the proper liability insurance policies in place?

Organisers and event planners, whether hands-on or enlisting any external suppliers for event and entertainment services are reminded that having the proper level of public liability insurance should be a number one priority. It is essential that full insurance cover is in place when planning to offer food and drinks or organising such things as a fireworks display.

Party planners - lest anything untoward were to happen, and claims arose as a result - should really think about taking out public liability protection. While local residents groups, planning smaller low-key street parties, are also advised to contact their local councils for further guidance on public liability insurance requirements for their specific areas.

The number of things that can go wrong at street parties are untold. Accidents at street parties and even illnesses can be directly attributed to attendance at such street events.

In today’s “compo climate” people are increasingly aware of their legal rights, and are more willing, and able, to resort to legal action to obtain redress for injury, loss or damage caused by another party.

Reforms to the legal system and a claimant-friendly legal environment mean that it’s all about instigating claims if blame can be apportioned.

Finding the right type of business insurance can be somewhat daunting and it is advisable to check with your local Trading Standards Office or chamber of commerce who may have the information you need to choose the proper level of insurance cover, before committing to any agreement.

Your Euro note

Is your Euro note genuine?

Euro notes are designed to be one of the most difficult currencies to forge, they have a number of notable features which aim to discourage counterfeiting. Genuine Euro notes have a number of features including:

Holograms, which are plainly visible on the right hand side of notes up to €20, and in a circular shape on the right of notes of €50 and higher.
Coloured ink – the EU flag in the top-left should appear green and orange when held under UV light.
The ‘EURION’ constellation – the dots on the front face of the €10 note are of a deliberate design which means some photocopiers will refuse to copy it .
Watermarks – not only the traditional one on the left, but also a ‘digital one’ embedded onto the print of the page, programs such as Photoshop are programmed to refuse. There are also marks that show up only under infrared light.
Security thread – Holding notes up to the light, you should see a ‘thread’ interwoven into the note, down the middle of the note.
Magnetic ink – Notes like the €20 are printed with magnetic ink in some parts (such as one of the church windows).
Micro-printing – The €5 note features a bar on which the word E
ΥΡΩ appears. That’s actually the words ‘EΥΡΩ’ and ‘EURO’ written in very small letters.
Bar code – Holding the note up to the light you will see a barcode to the right of the watermark. The width of the codes on this indicates the note.
Checksum – The serial number of each note is preceded by a letter. If you


convert this letter to its ASCII equivalent and add all the digits together, the number will be divisible by 9.
