    Also one in Carlow Town and a few more around Dublin

    They're decent for specific frozen items and also have some other specifics cheaper than other shops - Mr Kipling products are one for instance. They aren't high quality shops by any means but anything at all that helps bring people to Naas main street is needed now.

    No squat rack, but they do have a smyth machine, two free bars and a big range of dumb bells. They also are happy to bring you round for a tour if you ask at reception and want to check it out.

    If its free weights your after kilashee is the place to go, 11 benches for dumbells, 4 barbell benches, 3 squat racks. Dumbells up to 60kg. Only been done up too so loads of new equipment

    Iv used k-leasure a few times when the kids were in the sports centre training but thats the only reason. They dont have a full size Olympic bar and no deadlifting allowed. ...

    Anyone know why they have stopped working on millennium park roundabout? Did one week of resurfacing but nothing last week or this week so far. Electronic signs that were up the first week said there would be two weeks of resurfacing. Most dragged out roadworks ever.

    Never seen anything like it, worst thing is when you come off the roundabout to go into Naas there is a woeful hump that I would say has burst tyres

    its beyond a joke at this stage - months of tail backs and all they have done is slightly widen a round about that people were using as a two lane anyway. How on earth they gave planning permission for that new mcdonalds when that Tesco road is already a one lane permanent bottle neck is beyond me

    It started off as a big roundabout. Then they brought out the sloped parts for bicycles. It'll be a tight 2 lanes. The plans must have changed a few times, because they're never normally that slow.

    Lack of any sort of update anywhere is also a PITA. When this started I thought it would be done before kids went back to school!

    Please say they'll put a zebra crossing there now instead of lights.

    Sure people will drive straight through the zebra crossings and mow people down

    See ing as most people don't know how to use their indicator on a roundabout I just have no faith

    Cllr James lawless is fairly vocal about it on Facebook. He might have an update as he was saying he was meeting with the engineer on Monday because of so many complaints

    Ring Lemongrass, they do a platter to share, it's 25 quid.

    Or if you can wait till Saturday, at the farmers market, here's a little stall that does sushi dishes. Not sure about their prices though.

    The only guy I know is Ronan Walsh. Seen his van around a few times, he's from Kingsfurze, no idea of his number, but you have enough information there to get it from a Google.

    I looked up Naas plumbers on golden pages. 9 plumbers listed for Naas. Only one answered phone and he ended up letting me down.
    Anyone know a reliable local plumber that answers his phone.

    I left out a key for the house for my guy, from the lady who recommended him I knew he was reliable and trustworthy. I burn oil, so have no idea if he can do both. Give him a call and find out.
