    The work of the village idiots is spreading and this latest bit of welcoming graffiti is on show to visitors (and locals) walking along the promenade. How long will it remain or will it be joined by more? At least they spelt Brits correctly.

    They must have been on one of those mural tours up North and seen the amount of tourists on those tours.

    Yea right, if any of those numptys went further north than the Blackstoops roundabout they'd never find their way back.

    Apparently the plan is for no left hand turn from the old bridge onto Templeshannon. People will have to use Springvally.
    Would have thought a one way system the other way would make more sense,particularly for heavy traffic and bus's for Treacys and the swimming pool.

    Can't imagine Anton being too happy with that, or coaches going up the backhill, and then trying to turn at Toss Kavanagh's...

    Disaster either way. You'd have traffic using Slaney View and Rectory Rd, or that boreen up by Vinegar Hill to get to or from the Oulart Rd.

    I think part of the €4.3 million redevelopment of Templeshannon is that the buildings from Toss Kavanaghs down to the former off licence are to be demolished (they are ready to fall down as it is)
    The added influx of traffic from the new interchange at Finchogue means that a new traffic plan will have to be drawn up for the area.

    Most of them from what I've been told although Toss Kavanaghs might be moving into the old Club premises.

    I learned how to drink in The Club! Pints of harp and pool, and a jukebox, with Charlie and his baseball bat..

    I believe the lower Curracloe road is a very quiet place this morning following a mass exodus to the UK.

    Can anyone clarify if the Councils municipal office is the building in Market Square or the one out the Old Dublin road? Anyhow €1.2 million is going to be spent upgrading it.

    Google says it's the Market Square

    Enniscorthy Municipal District Council Office  
    Address: Market Square, Templeshannon, Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford, Ireland

    Didn't think Market Square was in Templeshannon though :-)

    A vintage-style pop-up shop has appeared, today being it's first day. It's across from the Athenaeum. It's open 10am till 5pm every day until the 25th February, interesting stuff!

    2 girls seriously sexually assaulted in the town the weekend before last. No doubt I'll be tarred as xenophobic if I say who the perpetrators were that drugged and raped them.

    And this is fact or speculation? Gardai are involved? Crime reported?

    ps, sending private messages, unsolicited, to others, with xenophobic connotations, will be deemed as xenophobic.

    Do you want me to name the victims to keep you happy?
    Not wanting criminals in the town is not xenophobic, I don't care if they come from The Shannon, Bellfield,Timbuktu, or anywhere else for that matter.People acting the scumbag around town is not something I want to see or hear about.
    Wanting that IMO is not remotely xenophobic.
    Let's leave it at that as the argument will just go around in circles and we'll still be back here.

    The same perpetrators, happened last Saturday week. 2 women out for drinks,had them spiked and ended up being brought to a house and assaulted. Apparently those who carried it out have been identified and charges will be pending so maybe it's best not to say any more.
