    Shame to see them gone out of the Fairgreen. Used pop in the odd time. Was pretty good value if not the most amazing quality.
    Notice says thye are doing everything from their depot on the O'Brien road. Never been in that but I assume it's more cost effective for them.

    Parking would've been okay in the Fairgreen. Remember when they had the shop in Tullow St?

    They need to get advertising; unless I've missed it I've seen nothing in the 3 Local Papers (if you can call the Carlow Courier that; I've "read" its Waterford & Kilkenny cousins & they're just as bad even for a freesheet but I digress.........).

    Only sign I recall is in old butchers shop (think that's what it was anyway) on Barrack St. between the JT & the (old....there's a pattern emerging!) opticians & the Carry Out.

    Christmas is coming; there's goose & turkeys & ham to be ordered........!

    On a slightly different note, it's good to see Carry Out & Tanning Shop & Nail Salon all back in business; the rebuilding job was done sharpish!

    Did not like Boscos, brutal stuff at times, just too bad to ever go back

    It was rebuilt over night practically, good to see it.

    If you want great meat and great prices I totally recommend clonmore meat. Best beef I've ever bought and no crap. Great prices and nice man there behind the counter he gives my little girl a lolly every week we go in to buy our meat.
