    Good plug for Westport in the Mirror.

    Not sure if its a bit twee but welcome all the same.

    The Botox capital of the world: Welcome to the Irish town of Westport (population 5,543)

    9 Feb 2013 02:19 The Co Mayo resort is home to the world’s only producer of the anti-wrinkle treatment, which remains a favourite with A-listers the world round.


    Like a well-poured pint of Guinness or a bit of blarney between old pals, life in Westport is worth savouring.
    The picture-postcard Irish town should be succumbing to the country’s crippling recession but the shops are full, the bars are packed and business is booming.
    And it’s all thanks to a cash injection from Botox.
    Westport (pop 5,543) is home to the world’s only producer of the anti-wrinkle treatment, which remains a favourite with A-listers the world round.
    But the Co Mayo resort is a far cry from Hollywood’s red carpet glitz and glamour.
    Walk into traditional pub Matt Molloy’s and you could easily be stepping back in time 50 years.
    Pensioners enjoy dancing in the back room, while regulars sip whiskey and water in the front.
