    Could it have been any worse?

    Fair play to all who give up their time to organise this but it's really a day out for the kids on bouncy castles and nothing more.

    I think its a great day out! I don't have any children but i think its a good bit of fun!

    yeah it was a good day and there were loads of people around which is good in these times, i think they should try make it a wkend thing if possible, i know it would be hard to organise but im sure any of us on here would be happy to help out in anyway possible, it jus brings a small town like port together for a day

    I thought it was a great day out and really showed the community spirit of Port,both me and my wife are blow ins from neighbouring Kildare and Offaly (had to find neutral place to live) and have to say don`t see any of this in our respective home towns ,and with the recently run Family Day in Port as well I think you locals should be well proud.

    I really enjoyed the day too. Totally harmless but with 3 babies under 2 and a half there aren't many places for us to go to!! :D

    I'm desperately trying to locate an artist that was in the square. She was separate from the other artists who were along the railings and had her own stand between the bookie office and the After Dark.
    Can anyone help? She had some great stuff and I'd love to buy something fromm her for a wedding present.

    Hope someone there can help.
    Thanks Lolak
