    If you post up what you are into.. ie pubs? walking? shopping? etc. then I'm sure some suggestions will be put forward..

    Also, check out the (fledgling) thread about whats on in Wexford..

    Check out the Wexford People (available in Eason's) for the entertainment pages. I say the People because the Echo's ents pages are the same over the different papers so are mainly for Enniscorthy places.

    Don't expect anything from the opera festival, it's in Johnstown Castle this year for just over a week and there's no fringe in town.

    In fact, I've almost forgotten there's a bank holiday this weekend, there's no buzz at all.

    Hey - I picked up a copy of the Wexpeople in a news stand outside of Harvard!!

    just shows how great we are!!!!

    And to the nay sayers - I was at an opera in woodstown a couple of years back that was great. The one in Johnstown should be a good stand in until the new super high Opera House is built

    Was on the lunchtime train back to Wexford today, it was jammers. As for things to do - saw a sign for an antiques fair in town all weekend if that floats your boat (think it's in either Whites or Talbot)

    Cheers for the replys,
    Well we went to hook lighthouse on Sunday and it was good.There is some view from the top. and the drive there was fun (very small windy roads)
    Headed up to campile then to the dunbrody abbey it was raining on and off so we just tried the maze ( one of those mazes made from bushes ).That was a good laugh and if you have kids they'd really enjoy it.Says me the big kid.
    Apart from that just walked the beaches.Missed the re-enactment but sure might get there mext time.
