    Default Fairies Destroyed Ireland's Richest Man, says neighbour

    don't mess with the sidhe



    Sean Quinn's dramatic fall from grace as Ireland's richest man is down to the fairies; and his decision to move a megalithic tomb, according to a neighbor.
    Now down to just $15,000 in his bank account, Quinn has lost a business empire worth billions and is officially bankrupt.
    Experts believe his decision to gamble on Anglo Irish Bank shares brought about his financial downfall.
    But one neighbor in the Cavan town of Ballyconnell believes that Quinn's problems can be traced back to his removal of a megalithic burial tomb 20 years ago.
    Publican Toirbhealach Lyons believes Quinn's $8billion empire was doomed when he interfered with the Wedge Tomb which had stood for 4,000 years in the Aughrim townland, two miles outside Ballyconnell.
    Quinn Concrete applied to move the tomb in 1992 as they expanded a massive quarry.

    one of the good old wives tales here, if it wasnt for this fairytale there wouldnt be a pre-historical site left in the country. i know people down here who wouldnt pick a leaf off a tree in an old fort
