Yeah thatās it I think, ended up back there after a session about three years ago. The oldest person in there.
Fantatic daysā¦used to be a bouncer there about 30 stoneā¦didnt give a bollocksā¦sound bloke though.
Kept out the worst cunts to be fair to him.
I was probably in there myself

The new hotel hoping to be open for the new year.
Would the Askeaton lads often head as far as NCW for a night out?
Lad, thereād be busloads coming out from town and even from places like Listowel, never mind over the road. Totally lawless. Amazed someone wasnāt killed looking back at it, fights every night. A rite of passage.
It was a different world back then.
Christ, my nite club days are over now bar stags. Makes me feel very, very old. And sad.
Enjoy it @Copper_pipe - youāll be into your 30ās before you know it.
When I started seeing my current wife I had a whole world opened up to me, the Highland in Newmarket, Charleville and NCW, interesting change of scenery for a Cork city boy
You had Newmarket, abbeyfeale, NCW and charleville all within a 20 mile radius. Not sure if thereās a night club left in any of em now!
Hiland is still going anyway.
Full of young ones though. Think it only opens on a Saturday
The Highland/Hiland was a right spot. Itās out in the middle of nowhere.
Was there once years ago, cracking night.
Serious place they used to bring right good bands aswell! Was there one night for Aslan. MENTAL
Youāve no business going up thereās unless youāve a lift home sorted!
There was no notice taken of walking 20 miles home back then!
THat was a huge thing for me as well, on one of my first visits to my in laws place I ended up walking 7 miles home in the pitch black, even up some fucking supposed ghost road
I used to walk back into Kilmallock from Bulgaden by the railway track. Twas safer.
Forgot Bulgaden, she dragged me there another night, fortunately we had a lift home.
Is your Mrs a west limerick woman pal?
Sheās Kilcornan I think. If itās the woman Iām thinking off.
Indeed, Iāve often mentioned it, went to school in Charleville though so sheād have a very wide geographical circle of friends, hence the Bulgaden, Newmarket, NCW nights out

Memories you couldnāt begin to explain.
What a time to be alive. Doing the GAA summer scheme every summer under the older brothers names cos you were too young, mixing muck and throwing blocks, Paddy and Red, foam parties, not realising 94 and 96 were as good as it would get for your lifetime, the bus home from everywhere, the bit of tit, knowing nothing about wine but not letting that stop you, crashing weddings, no doors on the tractor, singing the wrong words to songsā¦
Those poor bastards starting out these days.
I am my father.
Nobody cares you sneaky Cark cunt.
