    Did anyone go?
    It was nice to see the French Market again, but I thought it was better other years.

    It was mainly the French Market, although there were also stalls from other countries like Spain, Poland, Japan lots of different cultures there.
    Also live music. Although I didn't see anyone in national costume like there was last year.
    There were also bouncy castles and face painting for the kids.

    The most interesting thing in Riverstown these days is that it currently has the bumpiest road in the world. It's like a cart pass at the moment and has been since Christmas. It's so bad it's dangerous and will seriously f@ck up a car if you hit it at any speed.

    I have. Riverstown is worse. Especially pat the barracks as you're leaving. And past Cooperhill gates. Sooey is pretty brutal as well though. And a special mention for the Keadue side of Mountallen. Not the worst, but a special prize for consistant badness through the years.
