The last time you were somewhere you never heard of before?

The Backwards Man

Found myself in a place called Carrigallen on the Leitrim/Cavan border at 6.30 am this morning, never knew it existed before.

Sounds mysterious. Care to elaborate?
Alien abduction, tiger kidnapping, or a ONS?

Anyone who drove Dublin-Galway prior to the M6 opening knows Kilbeggan, as it was one of a series of villages that only existed to cause tailbacks and annoy people (see also, Tyrellspass, Moate)

I once got a bus from Dublin to Galway on St Patricks Day. They decided to have a parade down the main street in Moate, which was also obviously part of the main Galway to Dublin road. Have always hated Mary O'Rourke since as I saw her on stage giving a speech when we started to crawl through the town an hour later

Was at a wedding in Derrinacarta outside Ballaghadreen a few years ago. Fierce Mayo v Roscommon rivalry around there

Llandudno in North Wales.
I hoped on the Ferry in Dublin to go on a friends stag. I knew we were going to Wales, but not to a place I might know from Rugby or Football. Ended up in Llandudno. Nice seaside village.

Then on the 2nd day, we got a bus to Blaenau Ffestiniog. It's got an old mine, and you can go on a giant trampoline inside the mine. It was different

Off motorways you still get that response to delays caused by tractors, builders, road-workers etc......"Whats your hurry?".

It is impossible to plan journeys off motorways to arrive in good time without leaving 1/2 hr or so spare to cover for people who block roads or go very slow or cause accidents on the road.

This time of year you get contractors pulling out in front of cars in their tractors and trailers slowing everybody down. Likewise builders blocking roads to load or unload stuff just walking out in front of people and blocking them for 10-20 minutes. The blocked motorists have not planned for those delays in their journeys.

The pain people suffered in this country for decades was caused by politicians putting local interests before national interests, local shopkeepers did not want bypasses and motorways because of a fear of losing passing trade.

A typical journey from Galway to Dublin took 4 hours.

Slowed down by villages and kip towns on the way.

Now it takes less than 2 hours.

This happened because EU insisted on it and the NRA was set up to implement it. Otherwise local interests would still dominate the design of our road network if they could.

Pune, Maharashtra, India.

The company I work for has an office there, and last year I found myself there for a week training people. Wouldn't have been able to find the place on a map before that.

Was taken aback in the70s when told we were going through intercourse and then to paradise and fertility. Turns out we ended up in Bird In the Hand. 4 towns in Pennsylvania.

I know the place only by dealing with people from multiple companies based there.

For me it's not the India that sent a spacecraft to Mars or the one launching the GSLV Mk.3 again soon :cool:. It's not Amartya Sen. It's not Tollywood physics.

It's the part of India that has seems to have set even lower technical standards for new hires.
