Where in Sligo are you from?

bobcar61

As the title suggests,where abouts in Sligo are ye all from!

I've been posting here for a while now and to be honest don't know anyone and I'm sure a few other people are the same.

I'm from the very top of Cairns Hill so have a lovely few of the town to one side,Lough Gill to the other,and out towards Ballisodare the other.

Oh and my real name is Mark,no need to call me bobcar anymore:p

Mods,this can be locked if inappropriate

That's nothing! I live near Geevagh!! Now that's remote! Been here just over a year. Nothing ever happens here and the local notes in the Sligo Champion read like the parish newsletter. Maybe I should start going to Mass...maybe that's where it's all happening..?
