    I'm not from Ennis, But I absolutely love this beautiful little town. I come from the N/E, where everything has been sacrificed to progress.:)

    I'm an out of towner too, Ennis is a quaint enough place compared to some other similar size towns in Ireland tbh. There are worse places.

    Ennis is a hole, living here 23 years since i was 7 !
    place is full of scobes knacks and beggers now
    every second pub and shop is closed down,
    ****e nightlife,

    WHY DID I EVER LEAVE AUSTRALIA AGHRAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :D

    The Lifford hasn't really been a biker bar in a long time. They've started opening up the back room for gigs and it's full of metaler looking ravers though.

    I'm a bit bored of Ennis at this stage but it's got a lot of positives. And the nightlife is pretty hopping for a town of its size. There's a young demographic around the town so there's usually something going on.

    I dont disagree with you Bobby about knacks etc but compare Ennis to similar sized towns around Ireland and it really isnt that bad. Would prefer to live in ennis than Limerick any day too.

    I miss the days when the barmaids in the lifford were some of the best looking girls in town and the pub wasnt completely overrun with crazy poles and scobes. It used to be great fun in there!!!
    It really has gone so far downhill

    There's still fairly tasty barmaids in The Lifford. Props where they're due. :D

    No matter what town you go to in Ireland the locals will complain about it being crap whereas if people visit it just for a weekend they love it,it's just the way it is unfortunately:(!!

    Well, they moved into my neighbourhood actually right across the road, health board paying the rent for them, while i work everyday to pay my mortgage!! GRRRR:mad:. Couldn't agree with you more, town is full of them, they seem to have come out of the woodwork in the last year and are renting private houses all over the town. Completely pisses me off!

    Hey; whatever town you go to there's gonna dem..they can be peckers too: The one down the road wod be looking in the window of the street givin out..uno! Gets annoying, I think the reason they live in a house nowadays is because "biffo" & "honchos" dont wanna have caravans all over the place! Ahh well..dats like spose then!

    Ennis is a nice town, I thinks its okay bearing in mind that "dem" people are everywhere!
