Got a map to prove that?

Have you a map to prove its not?

artfoley · September 13, 2018, 4:35pm

Yep

Michael D’Arcy TD on the telly here.

the_mixer_walsh · September 13, 2018, 9:02pm

He has a grand aul job, responsible for fuck all and can’t get anyone to do anything

Mac · September 13, 2018, 9:19pm

Typical modern day TD. Living off the reputation of his father. There’s local councillors who would have more impact than this lad. He means well but will achieve sweet fuck all out of his political career bar filling a few potholes and getting a few edge cases their medical cards.

Fagan_ODowd · September 13, 2018, 9:24pm

His father was a useless cunt too.

Mac · September 13, 2018, 9:38pm

Before my time but apparently the young lad makes him appear twice as good as he actually was, which obviously isn’t much of a compliment

I just had a superb 36 hours in Wexford. There’s nothing quite like opera season in the beautiful old town.

Irish ferries are discontinuing their service to France next year. Sad to hear this. Remember fondly getting the Saint Killian to Cherbourg and Roscoff as a nipper. Big loss locally I imagine and like everything else the service will be moved to Dublin.

Doesn’t sound like it’s a done deal yet. Possibly tactics to get cheaper rates in Rosslare

Edit - Stena Line still sailing Rosslare to Cherbourg. None of the scumbags will infiltrate Wexford anymore. Huzzah.

So I’ve left it a little late for booking acommodation for this weekend’s match, what with the mid-term and all.
What are Talbot Suites like folks?

Bandage · February 11, 2019, 9:32pm

I don’t know for certain but they’re newish serviced apartments linked to the Talbot Hotel and less than 100 yards to hotel itself. Presume you’d have access to hotel facilities if you booked it. You’d be at the south end of the town near Kelly’s on the Corner and The Sky & The Ground for pubs and The Premier take-away for a breadcrumb rissole.

Mullach_Ide · February 11, 2019, 9:39pm

Might do Saturday and Sunday night, €96 per night! It does include access to hotel facilities though.

Bandage · February 11, 2019, 9:45pm

Yeah, I’m not sure how they’re doing. I think they were targeting business types for the weekdays and anyone at weekends then. Rumour had it our esteemed manager has free use of one of the apartments. That could be made up as the Pettitt family are big GGA backers and the senior club hurling championship at home has been sponsored by them for around 20 years now.

Appendage · February 11, 2019, 10:39pm

Go for it. They’re top class. Wexford is small so you can walk anywhere.

Bandage · February 18, 2019, 10:48pm

Will @Mullach_Ide ‘s review be anywhere near as glowing as this one?

Mullach_Ide · February 18, 2019, 10:54pm

It will be shorter anyway.

Matty_Hislop · February 22, 2019, 12:34pm

Has anyone good restaurant or pub grub recommendation for the Fethard-on-Sea, Kilmore Quay area? I’m down that way at the moment, with the kids so child friendly a must.

Bandage · February 22, 2019, 12:40pm

Think Mary Barry’s in Kilmore Quay has a good reputation, pal.
