I used to think Maynooth was alright but the smell of manure in the place these past few days has put me off :mad:. Before you say it, you never get that smell in Leixlip, even if it technically is Kildare.

No, you don't get that smell of manure in Leixlip..... but you do get an overwhelming smell of sewerage in Leixlip village instead. It's far worse than any stench you ever get in Maynooth. I've never noticed any unpleasant odours around here tbh, not with any alarming frequency anyway.

Touché.
I never really go down the village anyway so I don't have to deal with it. You can get from one side of the town to the other without needing to cross the Rye Bridge. Well, at least the sewage smell can be fixed, the smell of manure is inevitable in Maynooth until (if ever) it gets swallowed up by Dublin city.

TBH I'd prefer to live in a city-centre apartment than in a semi-d in the suburbs (and that is supposed to be the point of suburbs, apartments in Maynooth & Leixlip is a bit stupid, and indicative of our poor planning policies). I'm much more of a city-person anyway. But Maynooth ain't so bad, all things considered. The smell of manure does make me physically feel sick though.
