    Anyone know if this idea of Feile coming back is going to happen?
    Surely can't be much worse than having those bloomin matches going on.
    The town needs a bit of life brought to it no reason why it couldn't be a good idea eh..what yah rekon?

    I heard they done a survey to get peoples feelings on it coming back and i came back very positive,it would bring a good bit of money into the town in these hard times.i hope it happens.

    Yeah theyve been in touch with local business,gardai the only stumbling block is residents at the moment

    the stumbling block is the church, it would have kept going if not for the church bitching.

    Yeh wasn't it the church that stopped it in the first place, I mean what to they think locals get up to when there's no feile..a lot worse.

    Surely they can't make any more a mess of the place either than any of those big matches that are on in town.

    What? Was it rally the church's moaning that stopped the feile? Tell me the sceal somebody please!

    I remember wandering around the feile when I was like 5 or 6, walking over almost-dead bodies on the street.
