Galway

How did the European Capital of Culture go last year?

Looks like the art wall in my young wans school tbh.

The opening ceremony was cancelled due to wind and rain, the Council voted to stop shovelling money into a big dark hole and then some Chinaman ate a bat.

Overall a roaring success.

Nothing that ever happens in Galway will top the granny in Limerick.
Those were the best days of our lives

Who can we direct our anger at?

Have you tried the Catholic church?

Yes.

I heard some people when they are angry just go on rants or pick fights on the INTERNET, its good for the old Zen apparo, maybe try that

The original plan had 11 towers, the tallest of which is 21 storeys, making it the highest residential building in Ireland. It is being retained, but the number of other towers is being reduced from 10 to nine. The nine tower blocks have been reduced by either one or two storeys.

Privately seething here that our number of towers have been reduced from 11 to 10.

And developed for vast profit by a lad who wrote hundreds of millions of debt off to the taxpayer. What a great country to do business in.

Presumably we won’t know if he makes a vast profit until he manages to build it and sell it?

Oh he will. You can tell this is all in the bag from how absolutely minimal the mandatory changes to planning are.

Tis an awful country altogether

Well I don’t owe anyone anything.
I have no issue with the development of Galway, bar this looks like a hideous boil in the bag development like you’d see on the outskirts of Croydon. I have an issue with a lad able to write off hundreds of millions free as a bird though, and go back to doing what he did with a completely clean slate, free of obligation.
