    Is this red haired bucko?

    If so, I can't understand how that guy is still alive. he was on his death bed nearly 20 years ago.

    Yes, yes it is, over 100k people living there and every single one of them is identical.

    and Tallaght people are suppose to be stupid.

    I was being sarcastic and in fact trying to support Tallaght.

    I think it's way too late to disperse the stereotypes associated with Tallaght but I'd like to just say that I have lived here my whole life and it is a nice place to live. I hate that it has a bad reputation and it serious pisses me getting slagged about it by people who have never even been here.

    It's not as though when you leave Tallaght, suddenly you can flaunt your wallet and your car keys and whatever valuables with the attitude, 'I'm not in Tallaght anymore, I won't get robbed'. No town in Dublin can leave their doors unlocked so why has Tallaght been singled out?

    We have the Square and the Luas so it's very convenient. A town shouldn't be judged just because it has scumbags, you're going to get them everywhere. So tell me what it is.

    My Tallaght Experiences:
    - at a bus stop a few years back, a girl looking about 14 was riding a guy up against the back of the bus stop, gloriously screaming her head off while the kid banged her, ooh.. and she was very visably pregnant

    - every time I'm in the Square, I get approached by some strung out tracksuit guy asking me for a cigarette

    - groups of kids under the age of ten wear a lot of makeup, hot pants with thongs visable and chew chewing gum with their mouths open to beat the band... oh, and the language out of them....

    shall I go on??

    - As they were at a bus stop, maybe they weren't from Tallaght?

    - I smoke, but no-one ever asks me for cigs, not in the Square or anywhere else.

    - They sound like kids from a particular mobile community. No kids around my area dress like that.

    Jesus. I know of this bloke. He was always seen as somewhat of a comedy character by the kids where I used to live, but then again we used to stay well away from him.

    I can't believe he's still going.

    He's actually a pretty harmless guy.

    He got addicted to heroin at a very very young age at a time when there was very few addicts in Tallaght. He mostly travelled back and forth on the 77a sipping on a large bottle of physeptone on the back of the bus "entertaining" the commuters with his hilarious obsevations on life.

    Yea, I was walking down past wesley in donnybrook one night, there was a girl getting done from behind, with every thurst she was puking her ring up all over the place, really. that D4 is an awful dump.

    Fixed!

    I remember about 12 years ago he was off his chops walking up the road with no t-shirt on (it was tucked into the back of his jeans) and it was a frosty November evening ,

    Majority of Tallaght people are salt of the earth and I have a lot of close friends from D24. You'll get good and bad people in all walks of life.

    Its based at the old Glen Abbey factory, Zombies do be walking to it most days up and down the belgard road.

    I grew up in Cushlawn and lads it was as rough as it comes and still is. Houses boarded up all over the place, robbed cars every night, Killinarden house for a quiet pint is like the ok coral, your taking your f00king live into your hands unless you know somebody there. I've drank there down the years as i'm from the area and i could write a book on the place. Junkies dying every other week, stepping over bodies to get into the top shop, lads off there cake everywhere. People getting on and off the 65b and 50 bus and not paying their fare, just walk on past the driver known damn well he is not coming after them, unless he has a death wish.

    Last incident i heard of happened 2nd January this year, couple of young lads egging houses, threw an egg at the wrong mans house. Went out picked up the little 14 year old scumbag, proceeded to walk around to the next road with the youngfella over his shoulders, arrives at said younglads house, and proceeds to fook him through the sitting room window and lands on the xmas tree in the middle of the window in full view. Aul lad comes out roaring and shouting, gets decked and is told if his son ever looks at his house again he will shoot him and cut his balls off.

    All in all a fine neighbourhood.

    Thats pure garbage, the Killinarden inn is just a regular pub like any other, you dont need to know anybody or the likes to have a decent pint. I'm drinking there 6-7 years and have never witnessed a fight, not saying they never happened it is a pub after all. But if really claimed to drink there you would know its not like that.

    Didnt hear about any of what you said regarding the "boy through window" incident, sounds like Chinese whispers to me.

    Small world or what?
