    I passed over that way this morning and you wouldn't see as many cameras on Portlaoise prison as there are on the new estate, it's a real pity it has to be that way as the place looks well.

    Buildings certainly look well, but are those cameras there just during building or permanent? Such permanence sounds like an awful existence

    Which political party was it?

    At the time PBP had a few posts on their facebook being critical and playing the racism card over the way the councillors voted.

    Video doing the round of a traveler giving a beating to one of local bikers.

    Like something off of shameless.

    Apologies if not related to thread- but it’s a deplorable video.

    Biker as in a local just cycling through or a "biker" who they have an issue with? I assume they hardly just started beating up a cyclist who happened to pass through the no-mans land that is Carrickphierrish.

    No, he is one of the top Free wheelers. They are a fairly serious crew, I wouldn't like to get on the bad side of them.

    Actually the attack happened in kilcohan not Carrickpherish. I'm not sure why it's being discussed in this thread.

    Not related at all, and there's a back story there. There were no 'nice guys' in that video.

    It used to be popular route for runners …….probably way to risky now to chance running past there based on above and same for the casual cyclist….?

    Plenty of videos, and whatsapp messages going around.

    Big lad bit off more than he can chew now though! Running looking for help, and then hiding out somewhere, while the auld lads on bikes look for him ...


    Popcorn time.

    Back on topic, anti social issues have gone away over night! Not a sinner in the halting site in Carrickpherish, looks like everyone has cleared out of there. Maybe it’s related to the above or they’re all gone on their holibobs...

    I would be willing to bet it won't.

    I assume I can't name names here so I won't go into any detail, but I'd say as bitter as it may be to swallow that public humiliation, swallow it he will.

    Dunno, I'd jog past it on a regular basis and never experienced any hassle but I do know some who have had issues so who knows - its mostly the kids that are the problem I'd imagine

    They seem to be causing more trouble up around the Cleaboy end at the moment though.
