    Anyone here feel Clonmel could improve on nite life in the town? Don't get me wrong, there are some lovely pub's in Clonmel,but we are lacking in choice of late bars. At one stage there were about four or five nightclubs /latebars.

    Town is down to 2 as far as i know, bakers which closes itself at 1 and okeefes which we all know about it. Post house closed and dannos does not even open sporadically anymore which is used to around xmas/new years and bank holidays.
    I am surprised nobody has taken a punt on opening a new late bar/nightclub somewhere as the town and the people are pretty much crying out for one, could be a viable buisness venture for somebody.

    Considering Bakers and O'Keeffes are run by the same people and often share staff I wouldn't say there is two choices in town but one. Someone needs to take a punt on a late bar venue in town.

    I heard a rumour they were trying to get a late licence for Dalys, not sure if that is the case or not.

    To be honest I didn't even know they had a late licence which says it all. Anyway that place is way too small to be seen as a viable alternative late bar.

    i don't think Friends had a late bar, anyway their down fall was the people they were serving there.

    This is exactly the reason why I never set foot in the place when they opened it. Knew some of the crowd that spent every weekend there, would take a swing at you if you looked at them. No thanks.

    Thought that Friends and the Irishtown Inn were run by the same crowd from Tipp Town? Very little choice agreed bar O'Keeffes and Bakers(overly busy especially in the back bar) - Coachman have their own crowd etc which is older and Paul Higgins has no interest in opening Dannos again.

    Will be good to see Dalys granted a late license though for that end of town - also looks like the Manor closed for a good while

    See the lovely towpath walk between Carrick and Kilsheelan is under water in places (could all be under water but could only see parts from the road), wonder will there be much left of all the fine work that was underway in the recent past, when the river subsides?
    I'm sure they were anticipating flooding and used the appropriate materials in the pathways so it won't get washed away.hopefully not much damage will be done.

    I was in Gleesons and the rumour around the pub is that the house was blown up, and a car outside was damaged.

    Nothing as exciting as an explosion,just a house fire.

    Every man and his dog knows who owns it. There was a definite whiff of petrol about the place though.
