Tyre slashings going downhill rapidly in unfinished Marina lowers house prices....

Lads and lassies....Where is the love gone??? Some humour please.....things far too grim around here....

Reasons Not to live here

1. A car drove past my house yesterday at 3.27pm

continue....:P

I personally cannot laugh at the decline in the standard of tyre slashings in Greystones.

My mother always complains about how there are about 20 restaurants and "not a place to buy a spool of thread".

I think loosing Bells hit her hard.

So:

2) Lack of appropriate Haberdashery supplies.

Nice one guys...

The kids of Greystones seem far too happy due to lack of neurosis hence

3) The lack of Frank Clarke Bowl Haircuts on our School Children thus leading to lack of bullying for being shapers.

I'm going through some hardship with daily rejection living here. Its hard to survive in this place.

4) The orange cat on my fence every day that never lets me pet it

Non-Charlesland residents using the Charlesland bus

5) Bring back the old school bus and crazy driver, not this luxury coach we have now

6 the councillors are crap - even the ones who agree with me are crap because I'm just cynical about councillors

7) the fact that some people can't stay on topic.....I've had enough. The FOR SALE sign goes up tomorrow morning!!:rolleyes:

d'Oracle

Sure that happens everywhere.

8) the fact that when my house alarm goes off when I'm not here, my neighbour thinks I'm having a party and being so inconsiderate for not inviting them. :rolleyes:

9) No wonder we have a poor soccer team. The kids of today have no aim and hit my car at least once a day.

11. The real problem is that we don't moan enough. I mean really moan.

matt-dublin

my neighbours moan a lot.... eveytime theyre at it it sounds like a cheap pormo!!!

Blandpebbles

I dont know whether you mean porno or flymo

matt-dublin

maybe they're using a flymo in the act of the porno.....

some people are into some strange stuff...

I heard some story from a friend of a friend of a friend 50 years ago that the Byrnes are to blame for this

I also think there should be more roundabouts...not enough!

LOL Too many amenities! I should know, I slummed it in Blackrock all my life and know all about hard times. Sports clubs, running tracks, swimming pools, golf courses, etc etc etc are nothing but trouble and only distract kids from what they should be doing!!

d'Oracle

Too many primary schools.

cavemeister

Not enough speed bumps on the main street and not enough empty lots in the charlesland shopping complex!

Rasmus

Superquinn is way too overstaffed and I'm just not hearing enough house alarms go off at night these days...

jaffa20

Not enough fireworks/bangers going off outside my window!

Annasopra

where's all the whingers gone

the new 84 bus timetable is brilliant - I really really like the frequency of 1 hour and I love waiting on late buses too

Car2318

My neighbour keeps weeding my side of the front garden! Do people not know boundaries anymore :eek:

dr ro

my neighbour used to cut his grass and empty cuttings onto my side! I couldn't believe my eyes. I'd previously cut his and left his grass in a bag by his bin. This was before i moved to charlesland, wouldn't happen here.

WOW!
That sounds like an enormous positive change in service.
