Leitrim Matters MK II

Current Affairs
21

I see how people sell to the forestry as farmers can’t compete with their prices.North Leitrim is destroyed with Sika spruce.Its affects the county so badly population wise etc,the town’s will be the only thing left shortly.Being designated a National park is the only thing that will stop these cunts planting the whole county.

22

I agree completely.

We were selling a house too so it was difficult to get offers other than the forestry who agreed to take the whole lot. A nightmare to deal with as well. It really was a last resort. Farmer now in the scene is actually paying less but we are going with it.

I know of an arsehole from Aughavas direction originally who is Dublin based as is buying land around North Leitrim for planting.

The missus is heading to the black lion place tomorrow from Limerick. Looking for a pit stop for a decent bit of grub around Leitrim somewhere. That won’t be out of the way from the road

Is there anything in Drumshambo or Boyle or anywhere else in that vicinity

24

Why would she be going to Drumshambo,is she going from Limerick?If so take the motorway to tuam then stay on the road to Sligo.Take the N16 to Belfast which will pass through Blacklion.

25

Sat Nav is bringing them through Drumshambo not a part of the World I’d know. It’s saying Tuam, Boyle, Drumshambo

26

It’s saying ten minutes longer that way, you reckon they’d be better off on that road?

27

As in Neven Maguire?

And you’re looking for somewhere to eat as well as that?

28

I was told by someone that the food is great but portions are small. I like my food but that fact that there is a long waiting list for a reservation and I might have to stop in the chipper on the way home is a blocker for me ever going there. Nothing wrong with Cryans in Carrick or Cox’s of Dromod, better value and closer to home

You get about 14 course’s,no matter how big a roaster you are you’d be stuffed after that.

The bauld Neven was on there last week from Adare Castle if you wouldn’t mind.

He was making spring rolls. Well taking the pastry bit out a packet:

‘Generous helpings’ of butter and cream too,

I think he’s a bit of a cod.

31

You underestimate how much of a roaster I am. And my appetite

@farmerinthecity do you know much about this case

Speaking from experience I’d be very careful answering this Farmer

Jaysus, the Sunday World is still going.

39

I saw that.

Positive review was given.

Nothing against the owner of the place but the clientele are very rough.

@boxtyeater would have been a fan of the place back in the day.

Shure he’s as rough as a bears arse.
