    After Hours is probably the place where you will get the least helpful replies. It's basically a humour forum, but without the good jokes.

    Don't be discouraged though. There are other, better forums here for posting your question.

    Try http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=211

    If you don't play sports here, it's very hard to make friends. I don't play sports!

    that's really true I'm not a sporty girl I was when I was a kid but not now. Everything revolves around sports.

    If you like to read OP then theres several book clubs in town. I know there's one in this forum. There's a thread and you PM to find out the details...
    Someone told me(can't verify) that a book club runs out of the library in town.

    Dunamaise has a book club too. Reading "The Help" this month and the next meeting is March 17th @7.30pm

    Dunamaise is a wonderful place to start looking(speaking as someone only in town about a year and a half now) They got film club, book club etc and I'm sure they'd have contacts for the various AmDram Clubs/Societys in town.

    Night classes at Portlaoise College may be a good way to meet some people. I've never taken classes there, so I can't speak from experience. Here's the link:

    Attending a Pottery night course in the college. Very enjoyable. Would definately recommend it, though the spring term is already 3 or 4 weeks in at this stage so prob need to wait for the next term

    There was a thread for the organizing of a pub meet up, but it seems to have died a death.

    "Portlaoise: The Town where interesting things don't happen very often."

    That could be the slogan to promote tourism.

    Always on the lookout for new friends, if anyone wants to meet up for a drink.
