Sligo takes the cake, I have to say. Not only have they not got the electric, they keep referring to the place as a "city", because there are no other municipal centres within easy horse and trap reach. Also they all have the same eyebrows.

Just saying.

Who is this "they"?? The media sometimes refer to it as a city along with the mayor now and again!!

What does not got the electric mean?

Northern Ireland is fairly solidly attached to the earths crust. Digging Around it will not cause it to float anywhere. An undermining operation would be required. The six counties would be held aloft by a comprehensive system of supports/ props as excavation proceeded outwards from initial network of trenches dug in relays by teams of slaves in a nightmare subterranean world of work and darkness. Let the water in, break the last walls holding her, and let the north float away on the gulf stream to..

philstar

All this talk of Dundalk continually churning out hot chicks....anybody got any pics...?

Granard probably is grand to live in but it looks like its stuck in the the year 1900.... probably giving film makers little trouble filming there!

Anyway this argument has little direction as people havent lived in that many places anyway

.... then again BBC named Strabane as the worst place to live in Northern Ireland.

I hate where ever it is that Ciaran Mulooley from RTE comes from. His looks and his voice scares me

Sleepy

Cork.

Without a doubt, the accent, the impossible one way streets, the superiority complex, everything about the place tbh!

Doesn't Ciaran Mullooly come from Roscommon???

The Roscommon accent is terrible though, luckily i haven't been inflicted, probably due to my dad being from donegal.

Jaysus, can't believe Strabane hasn't been mentioned earlier.

Mullooly is a Longford man.Born in Lanesborough.Lives in Roscommon though.Yes.he has a very distinctive voice but he is a top-class reporter and probably RTE's best dresser.He is also very helpful and is frequebtly described as one of the nicest guys in the Irish media.

You mean Ciara Mullooly? Every time he says his name he forgets the n and calls himself Ciara! "Ciara Mullooly, RTE News".

You drag up a thread that hasn't been around for five and a half weeks (a LONG time in the world of After Hours), you praise a specific person despite it being fairly off-topic, and it's your very first post... that's some crazy-ass sh*t right there!

Ah, a new spark to inject life into an old thread, I love it.

Dublin Airport is officially the worst place in Ireland.

the width of the river shannon separates lanesborough from roscommon so he could easily have been born/raised on the roscommon side.....

Just saying is all... *hurt*

I notice Ailbe hasn't come back.

The only place I've ever been where i thought "Jaysus, I wouldn't live here if I was being paid to", is.....Athlone. Was only there the once and I've already prom9sed myself never to return. The place is a sh1thole.

Hey, we gave the world Guinness.

Thats another load of bollocks that Leixlip people say all the time. Arthur's first pint was brewed in Celbridge - the first brewery was in Leixlip but I still think Celbridge has more of a right to be called the home of guinness

I hated donaghmede..full of arseholes.
