    Hi everyone,

    I´v just moved to Carlow and I´m hoping to make a few friends as it´s quiet/ lonely in the evenings. I set up a group on facebook for this http://www.facebook.com/groups/create.php?customize&gid=189059145757#/group.php?gid=189059145757

    and hope to have regular events (depending on what everyone in the group wants).

    Also am looking for somewhere to rent if anyone know´s anywhere good..

    thanks for all your help/ patience.

    Sarah

    Not big. A quick google throws up the answer of 250sq Metres.

    Didn't you used to be on the Trinity forum? Your username rings a bell from when I was in Trinners.

    Best of luck with the move, hope it works out for you!
