Good things about carlow

TomTom · 09-03-2003 04:26PM #1

I noticed how we all seem to do nothing but moan and complain about everything.
So i'm starting this thread about a lit of positive things about Carlow IT and carlow Town. It could also prove usefull for listing services for people.

The college is always clean.
We have great computer services in comparison to other colleges.
The town has plenty of pubs and chippers for it's size.
It has a bowling ally and a bit of a cinema.
A varity of shops.

Add to the list and remember no negative posting.

Mord, is this gets good will you make it a sticky

Sorry but i have to say women!
I love the ITC ladies!
anyway.......Loads of Sports facilities and teams both in the College and in the Town itself!
Swimming pool.
McDonalds and SuperMacs......All we need now is Pizza Hut and BurgerKing!
Great Night life (IMO)

Moonbeam · 10-03-2003 01:07PM

Its just deadly:)
Nearly everyone lives away from home
Most accom is near the college
The college is near the town
The price of a pint is still reasonable:)

Absolutely fluichin deadly music shop (Ad Lib), if that's what you're into. I am, so there you go!

ShayK1 · 10-03-2003 03:51PM

oh yeah! Rainbow records! (Music (CD) Shop)
So much better that HMV or Golden Disks (IMO)

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 10-03-2003 03:55PM

i quite like the Ivy rooms in carlow, heading down town during a 2 hour class break for a few games of pool or snooker.

Moonbeam · 10-03-2003 04:04PM

Theres also loadsa places to go walkin and stuff tis pretty scenic,
The milennium bridge that goes no where...
All the ghost stories bout the place and the old gaol are pretty good too:)

Don1 · 10-03-2003 04:08PM

Oh i forgot. There's me!!!!:D

ShayK1 · 31-03-2003 09:41AM

wheres the Millenium bridge?? And the gaol for that matter??

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 31-03-2003 09:45AM

it's hardly that bridge in the park is it? ., the lil half circular one? that certailny goes nowhere. although I always make a point of walking through it when I can

Moonbeam · 31-03-2003 10:32AM

No tis a big white bridge down near where the ducks are in graigcullen:)
The Gaol was where superquinn and surrounding areas is now,
Did u never hear any of the ghost stories from the town??

ShayK1 · 31-03-2003 10:40AM

so thats what the Big Stone wall is around Superquinn!

Never heard ghost stories aboout Carlow and i only live 10 minutes away!

Moonbeam · 31-03-2003 10:57AM

Only heard a few,
Was convinced 2 of my houses were haunted though so had to do some detective work!!
Thats how I found out about the Gaol etc

ShayK1 · 31-03-2003 12:18PM

Cool!
So you gonna tell us some ghost stories then??

Moonbeam · 31-03-2003 01:19PM

Cant really remember any in great enough detail to type them out and get them right,well any that arent from my possible over active imagination anyway

Redrocket · 31-03-2003 03:52PM

i like the promotions in some of the pubs, at the start of the year there was stuff like buy a pint get one free in sheriffs, and the edge had a few good promos before. also naked mud wrestling and the strippers in the edge was good craic.
i have to admit the computers in the college are pretty good considering we could all be using ****ty Pentium1 200 or something, P3 800 is decent enough for a college. network is a bit ****ty at times but we wont get into that.
I LIKE THE PORTAL OF LIGHT

i_am_dogboy · 31-03-2003 11:04PM

yes...........the portal is cool

spam

indeed

TomTom · 01-04-2003 04:14PM

I remember when ye thought your house was haunted. Me and andy even had to get into the attic and walk around it to prove to you and bernie that there was no one living up there.
Who was it in the end, was it sean that was acting the **** or something?

Moonbeam · 01-04-2003 04:40PM

I remember:)
We got the Attic Bolted after that:)
Think that was the same day that I got in from college and someone was in the shower but D and Sin were out and so i presumed that it was Bernie,The shower was dripping when I went upstairs and the bathroom steamy but Bernies room was locked and it turned out that she was in work,and no one was in the house,that started the attic man theory!
we had more instances in my house on green road too

i love Scraggs!!!!!

love the nice download speeds, missing it now!
was there any weird things in 102 TomTom

TomTom · 02-04-2003 10:25AM

The only weird thing in 102 was the dissapearing of our rent. We were haunted by the ghost of macky the money nacker.

Headcase · 02-04-2003 10:54PM

yeah, the prick!!
and Snowball, the staff aren't nice. they're ****in useless.

i'd be nice too, if i could sit around all day and do nothing.

oh wait, i did that in Scraggs all year

ShayK1 · 03-04-2003 10:30AM

And thats why you have no work experience!!
Silly boy!!

Headcase · 03-04-2003 01:53PM

I dunno dude, I have had lots of help from the staff. Computer services always lend me stuff (the lads have seen that one). Student services r very helpfull and so on.
I asume there r a few muppets but I have not had any probs yet. I am probably luck though

Headcase · 03-04-2003 02:48PM

but what do they do in that nice high tech room of theirs.
ten guesses what Matt does?

Good things about carlow
