That it's a small world.
You're coming to Galway.
You know Nora-Jane.
She's from Galway.
There's a very recent thread just after being posted about her.
This forum is about Galway City.

It's a small world.

You should try walking around it if you think it's small .

po0k · 02-02-2007 10:33am

You could try to read my post as intended instead of taking it literally.

I find it funny how people (usually the blow ins!!) think that galway is just full of other blow ins and not locals! Thats just cause all you blow ins must hang out with eachother. Being from Galway all my life (and, yes my family have been here for well over 100 yrs) I find it hard to NOT find a person who's galway ancestrey doesnt stretch back over 100 yrs. There's this whole other side to galway that I dont really see that much and thats the blow in side. 90% of the people I know and am friends with here are locals. Galway is not just full of blow ins..... finding a galway accent is in no way hard here!

Kristinaxxs · 05-02-2007 8:37pm

Well 4 days to go

Well excited

Seriously, Galway is a pretty cool place.. even just to walk around in. It's amazing what you'll see.

Kristinaxxs · 08-02-2007 11:45pm

Cool, well thanks people, i'm looking forward to it

Kristinaxxs · 13-02-2007 1:20pm

Well, I'm home now and even though I split up with my bf, and had loads of bad luck, I'd move to Galway tomorrow! The people are so nice there, and I adore the accent!

5times · 13-02-2007 11:29pm

Holy crap - sounds like it was an eventful few days .

Kristinaxxs · 14-02-2007 10:59am

Yeah it was, first of all, I leave my bottle of vodka an irish cream on the plane, then find my phone won't work over there, then I lose 35 euros, then my bf (now ex) leaves me in a strange club on my own, then it rains, just had 3 days of bad luck, but I still wanna move there!

Thats not bad luck just normal. We get rain on approx 65% of the days here.

Well it's not good luck either is it, it was well hot in Dublin.

ScumLord · 14-02-2007 4:27pm

That would put a bad mood on any weekend, until you get to the offie and buy more.

Yeah it always is the whole West of Ireland is just a massive wheather breaker for them dublin folk. You're lucky you weren't here before the xmas, 38 consectutive days of rain.

Bit late now, but better for future reference; you'd've been so much better off staying a travel lodge or something. A lot cheaper I think (open to correction)

ScumLord · 27-02-2007 12:09pm

There's supposed to be a good hostel over Foxes. Most hostels do private on suite rooms as well as dorm. Better craic too.

Going next week
