    4000 more tourists in a year (only 10 a day!), spending €30 million euro less. Sounds like it's booming altogether.

    Why even bother reply to childish sh!t he/she is spouting on with?

    I lived in the town of Kilkenny and it is nice to be fair but i moved back to Waterford as there is much more to do and see. Some people in Kilkenny think the place is Mecca lets just leave them enjoy the delusional that seeps into their brains..........lets not feed the troll.

    There has been a ASU based in Waterford for years. I’d say this is some dozy Dud that could not tell the difference between Waterford And Kilkenny. Why would you even put an ASU in Kilkenny being that it has such a small population.

    Yea because the metropolis of Waterford is just so much more important with its barely double population!
    Kilkenny is more of a terror threat due to the large congregations of crowds of all difference nationalities, but still low. They'll go for dublin if they want to do anything here
    Nice try but its actually triple the population. Kilkenny's official urban population is still less than 20000. The statistical area you are on about is environs included which is 27000 for Kilkenny. The Waterford environs adds another 40000 to the population of Waterford. But you knew this didn't you spoofer? Kilkenny is so vibrant here you are on the Waterford City forum:)

    Kilkenny looks rammed with tourists because the place is tiny.

    Means f*ck all if they are not spending the money. It seems like 100000 or so are getting off the bus, taking a selfie and going where the action is which is Waterford. Granted Kilkenny is the hen night capital of the South East but most places are trying to move away from that particular Jeremy Kyle freak show.

    Tourists spending €30 million euro more down here. The facts don't lie.

    The floodgates have opened now. Does one person notify other people that there's a KK v Waterford thing happening or do they just hang around here?

    Kilkenny will have to start selling some Czech glass to boost the figures. Waterford is clearly thriving with all that cash...

    If you wait long enough every thread in the waterford forum turns into a Kilkenny thread.

    I posted once. Not my fault the site is completely unstable! As for Lemons? I wouldn't know. I am from Waterford posting on a Waterford forum. Not some Kilkenny douche who is proud that their city is a rest stop for visitors to Waterford:P

    And what did Kilkenny Design ever sell that was from Kilkenny? Virtually nothing! Waterford Crystal is a world brand recently bought for half a billion. Why don't you go to the Dublin forum and boast about Guinness being brewed mostly overseas? Probably because you'd look a bigger saddo if that were possible

    Well you won't find ISIS in Kilkenny. They probably checked out the holocaust deniers in the Kilkenny Journal and realized there would be no work for them their:D

    You realise the only reason these type of stores are not operating in Kilkenny is because the cartel operating up there dont want any big stores upsetting their monoply. Sure isnt it also the reason Tesco isnt trading in the town.

    You also have an one Aldi store and two Lidl stores, a discount store up beside Market Cross so i guess discount stores are also desirable in your neck of the woods.

    Plenty of jobs out of these stores, are you suggesting you would rather have people out of work than have these stores in your town or does your bitterness extend to more than just discount stores? the latter seems the more likely.

    Noreen O'Sullivan is obviously an avid follower of the Waterford section of Boards. There were three or four checkpoints around town with armed gardai present at each of them today. Usually they are around to back up the local force when they are making intercultural enquiries but I haven't seen or heard anything yet.

    I'd spotted the extra activity, with checkpoints in unusual places like the Upper Ballytruckle road by Ursuline Court, the start of the Williamstown road and so on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,682 ✭✭✭deisemum


    There were 4 gardai in pairs on foot patrol between St. Joseph's and Benildus and Ardkeen today, one pair each time I drove on that road at 9.30am, 9.50am and 2.20pm, 2 pairs at 2.50pm. They looked very young and I wondered if they were newly qualified gardai.
