Oh... I didn't know that, would rarely be over that side of town. Isn't there a golf shop in Castletroy Shopping Centre.

Thats a Meadows & Byrne now - but there is McGuirks gold

Havent been in there in years, it shows.

Mc Love · 26-04-2018 11:50am

It has really improved in the last year or so. It's a lot busier too. Jetland should really take a look at it and see how they've increased the business

dashoonage · 26-04-2018 12:25pm

Got them in sports direct in the end. Thanks all

How is the Parkway still open. It's a dated kip.

What? It's actually quite a nice little shopping centre. When were you last there, 2005?

Today. The floor tiles are the same ones they had back in the 80's.

Which goes to show that they are a good quality tile as they are still in perfect condition. But yeah, they should probably just be ripped up and sent to landfill because they are brown.

Yeah that's exactly what I meant.

iguana · 26-04-2018 11:22pm

So what did you mean? The only way for the place not to have the same tiles since it opened is by needlessly replacing perfectly functional, clearly extremely good quality, flooring. Personally (and as someone who is in the Parkway regularly) I prefer they keep their tiles than replace them for no reason.

Ah Dunnes Stores Parkway red & white Tiles. I remember them being there when I was a child and I see children even now jumping from tile to tile like many of us did.

So apparently there's a new statue of Pope John Paul being unveiled by Limerick Council on Bishops Quay on Monday?Like, actually WTF

Twoman Fullbackline · 27-04-2018 2:27pm

Well if the recent standard of statue in the city is anything to go by it will probably end up looking like Judge from Wanderly Wagon.

zulutango · 27-04-2018 2:48pm

Has to be a wind up?

zulutango · 27-04-2018 2:50pm

I saw Nigel Dugdale's tweet. It says memorial as opposed to statue. Please don't be a statue.

Mc Love · 27-04-2018 2:55pm

its a memorial - so will be like the humpback of notre dame's headstone on Clancy Strand.

iguana · 27-04-2018 2:55pm

Yurt. Never in my life have I ever heard anyone say yurt unless they were referring to a type of leather tent. But apparently it's a Limerick word for yes. When did this start?

Mc Love · 27-04-2018 2:56pm

Its not a wind-up been walking past the development the last few days, they have it hidden behind screens

It's not a Limerick word really. Rubberbandits took it from tv series The Wire apparently and it's gone on from there. I never heard it until they came along either.

Ah yes the good old boards attitude of 'thou shalt not speak negative of anything to do with Linerick' is alive and well.

The Parkway is dated with little to offer. I don't give a toss if people can't see that or get upset by the truth.
