The Sands Complex appears to be closed, it wasn't open tonight anyway. From what I was told, it is indeed closed but the reasoning wasn't anything to do with Air Conditioning or Liquidation of the owner whose other businesses remain open. Funnily enough for years he has been speculated that he was in receivership etc. but remained open.

Its is closed.I was working there.We were called wednesday morning and told the place wouldnt be open again so no work for us anymore.The reason we were given was the water and heating were gone.it was up to the owner not the leaseholder to fix it but he refused to do so.So they cancelled the lease.

Great buzz around town last Friday for Culture Night. Plenty of free events with great music.

Felt they advertised it very late this year.

old gregg · 24-09-2012 12:35pm

True. I felt that City Council who would have responsibility to promote the thing were not as active as they could be and left it to individual event organisers who are largely voluntary.

I've been told the Reg has been bought and will reopen as a pub.

That sounds lovely. Fingers crossed it'll go ahead. I'd say that would be a nice tourist attraction.

Never mind the tourists! It'll be a great CardBordWindow attraction too!

Any idea who bought it.

callaway92 · 30-09-2012 5:32pm

Going to Waterford for the week at 7, should be there at 8. Best place to watch the golf? Have no internet at my house there. Will be heartbroken if I can't watch it.
Pub around where the niteclubs are prefferably.
Thanks in advance

The Front Lounge put up on Facebook earlier that they'll be showing it.

I was out last night and i see the foundrys plans have been completed............now its full prices for drinks and you have the pleasure of paying entry on the door to go in!!!

Dicky Pride · 13-10-2012 10:04pm

They may as well take down the foundry signage and replace it with "Monopoly"

We will see how long that lasts but I suppose saying that the only people in there are of a very young age group. They won't think twice about paying in whereas anyone over the age of 20 going in there and paying should really have a long look at themselves in the mirror!

I wonder if both places have the same drinks prices too.
The word cartel springs to mind.

Anyone else shed any light on this? Masons was a favourite of mine, and I've had enough of The Foundry.

Enjoy Sinnotts immensly

I'm almost certain about 10 years ago every club in town(or all the good ones anyway) was €20 entry one Easter Sunday and not only did everywhere have a massive line most places we're turning people away for whatever reason they wanted and basically because they could. It really is such a different world now.

Was the same on St. Stephens Day. I remember Ruby's were asking for 18euro one year - and there were huge queues.

sinnott's lots of stuff getting robbed in there...........I am one who got robbed and I know of a good few others
