It closed for good on Friday evening. Where this leaves the school kids I don't know? Perhaps their parents can give them something out of their wheelie bins to bring to school or perhaps the school could open a tuck shop at the back gate. I shudder to think of how environmentally conscious the St.Mary's students are by the time they do the Leaving Cert. Do they have nature/environment studies in the school or even anything on basic civic responsibility? :rolleyes:

Judgement Day wrote: » Surprisingly I do expect them not to make a mess. There are two bins within feet of the area that I mentioned. There is obviously no sense of civic pride instilled in the school and the management of same should have the students out during their break periods cleaning up the mess instead of leaving it for the CE scheme.

It's not just the back of the school the whole town is filthy so I don't see why you're singling it out. And if your child was out cleaning the green I bet you wouldn't be too happy.

Have heard someone say to go via Portlaoise while someone else said to take the motorway to Dublin and then get on another motorway down to Enniscorthy from there. Anyone here know the quickest route? Thanks in advance

Our local authorities are really for the birds - a byeword for arrogance! Would it really be too hard to put a note through people's doors advising of water outages? :mad:
