    T'was quality. Highly recommended!!

    I'd say that's the death knell for Thai Station. The quality had gone downhill hugely in the last year anyway!

    Yeah. I've noticed this happening with a few places alright. They start off great and then just can't keep the standard up. I remember thinking the Lodge was lovely when it first re-opened. Wasn't too impressed on more recent visits though. Fate is another place that has went downhill over the years. It's a pity.

    Hi all, does anyone here take the bus from Naas to the city centre in the mornings? Just wondering your opinions on Bus Éireann or JJ Kavanagh in terms of punctuality. For example BÉ have a 07:45 departure for Merrion Row that is scheduled to arrive at 08:30, I would imagine the average journey time is roughly an hour in reality though? Thanks!

    Last time I was at the cinema in Naas, 2 tickets, 1 Coke and 1 popcorn cost me €40. That's 4 months Netflix subscription. I'll wait the few weeks for this one on Netflix.

    I wouldn’t go to the cinema much at all but watching a 3 and a half hour movie in one sitting on Netflix is a big ask. Think in this case to really enjoy the movie you’re best to go to the cinema.

    Your best bet with the cinema is to go on Wednesdays when its 2 for 10 euro.
    And then if you have access to 3 Network you can request a 2 for 1 code for the Odeon too (I think that works Mon-Thurs or something)

    Tallaght probably your best bet.

    You wont find it in any cinema in Ireland. Cinemas refused to show it as there is only a 45 day window before its released on Netflix.

    Well that’s just inaccurate but maybe you mean Odeon are refusing to show it? Haven’t heard of this.

    They're planning on widening the M4 up by me to Maynooth. Just wondering what sort of actual improvements anyone has seen on the morning commute into Dublin on the newly widened N7? (Is it open fully yet?) Even roughly, has your 7.30 commute dropped by 30mins, or 3mins?

    No, it is worse.
    Starts backing up at about Kill, the traffic doesn't have anything to slow it down until that point.
    The evenings are way better though. No backups at all.

    It’s worse. Leave Naas at 7, crawl down N7 arrive at red cow roundabout at 7.50 if I’m lucky

    Wifey ate there last night. Good food, excellent service. Only complaint is that the music is too loud.

    Don't know what kind of numbers they take in now. Assuming not coming from St Corban's or parent a past pupil?

    Our lad was accepted a couple of years ago, no previous relations in the school and didn’t live in the town. Best of luck

    Tried Camile this evening. Wasn't impressed. Got that starter box for 2 and it was cold. Mains we're very average.

    I'll give them the benefit cause they're only new and obviously very busy but it's not even close to the standard of Thai station when it opened first. Shame their standard has dropped so much too.

    Lemongrass take away out on its own now for the Thais/Chinese I reckon.
