Kilkenny - Non-GAA Discussion

Thanks for that. Heading to Thurles today. Was hoping to stop somewhere on way home to midlands/KK(2 households). I’d imagine horse and jockey would be wedged.
There’s a thunderstorm warning :cloud_with_lightning_and_rain:

@iron_mike would ye ever cut the grass and weeds on the square in Ragget?

It’s a holy show.

You passed through today I take it?

Funny, I passed through Ballyraggett as well today, it never appealed to me as a place to stop the car,
Did you go through Durrow as well, that’s a nice town (not in Kilkenny obvs)

We did. The brother is in respite in Castlecomer again. Well looked after. It’s a great break for him. And plenty to do in Castlecomer with him. It’s a surprisingly busy town.

I was on a stag a couple of years back and we spent an evening in Comer - was surprised by the size of the town. Half a dozen or so pubs from what I remember.

Bollard’s was the pick of them.

Also Rinuccinis.

Named after Giovanni Battista Rinuccini, the Popes representative(Papel Nuncio) who visited Kilkenny in the 1600s. DOES THIS GUY KNOW HOW TO PARTY OR WHAT!?!

And a new one right in the parade. Caffe500.

Girl I know has recently opened one called Scalini - Italian too but getting decent reviews. She’s mad as a box of frogs - she’ll keep the kids and you entertained.
