    I don't work there, but I worked on the door of (first) The Ryevale Tavern/Rock-a-fella's, Ozone, Sammy's (chipper) & Highway 66.

    So I earned my spures in Leixlip and rode half your mother's, sister's, wives and girlfriends :D

    I probably rode Terry before the operation too.

    Damn right, if this was a dublin related post it would be gone ages ago. Racial discrimination is what its called.

    I want a leixlip forum ...

    with such classic threads as

    "how often have you pissed in the disused fountain"
    "was that your ma' with her knickers around her ankles outside the ozone"
    "commuting time in a 88 Peugeot 106 knocked down from 30 minutes to 30 seconds"
    "student brings bomb to school, but leaves it in chipper"


    Ah Leixlip. nice name, **** place

    Damn right, most violent place I've ever worked.

    Beirut was a close second.

    Agree on the violent part, I lived there for a good few years, and the amount of street fights outside Sammy's on a Friday/Saturday night was mad.

    only ever ended up in 1 huge fight on the main street with about 10-15 lads on each side battering each other up and down the road.

    Ah the good ould day's.

    And a big hi to all the leixlip ladies ;)

    It's good that thats the way. Much like northside vs southside in Dublin. What separates the people from the animals? The Rye River! Dirty farenders..


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Noopti


    "Far-enders" versus "Hillers". The most ridiculous rivalry ever conceived.

    Gangs of New York, it ain't.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    I was in Leixlip once.

    Edit - and I actually thought I was in Abbeyleix, which is where I wanted to be :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    Anoen I know from Leixlip is sound ... I know 5 people, so the rest could all be scum for all I know?

    Your right, Leixlip is worse.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Noopti


    You were probably on the door when I was around Leixlip. Interesting times for sure. ;)

    From about 94-99 (I think).


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,246 ✭✭✭✭Riamfada


    I know one or two from Leixlip that are ok. But for the most part, and I stand by this , the place is a kip. Which is a shame because i have alot of good memories there and always thought of it as a gem close to Dublin.

    They have a subway... I guess thats a plus.. other than that..... ewwww.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Noopti


    Yeah, I would have been going out there in 97-99 alright. I remember the hassle that used to occur around Highway and Sams.

    I do like Leixlip though, lived there from the age of 9 to my twenties. I have very good memories of the place, shame there is an element of thuggery around the place. But don't you get that everywhere?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Noopti


    Oh yeah, and it is not as bad as Lucan......... ;)
