Longford folk won't ever forget Storm Éowyn and local comedian Jimmy Jests has made an impassioned plea for help as he deals with having no electricity, no water and no internet coverage.
Jimmy Connell (aka Jimmy Jests) says he can't take much more of having no services and implores 'send us help' as he struggles to sit around with family in the sitting room and is having to talk them because there is no TV or internet access and the aroma isn't great as people are unable to shower.
