    So it's a McDonalds going in beside Tescos at least I won't have to travel far for my once a year McDonalds habit.

    Is there a petrol station going in there as well? So far there doesn't seem to be the makings of a petrol station at all.

    No sign of McDonalds starting constuction by the looks of it. Really can't see planning permission granted for a petrol station going in at Tesco, with so many of them around the Sallings Road area already.

    What happened to Tony Roma's on the Main St

    There is a sign on the door saying its closed and Staff should contact their employer?

    Yeah on the door is a letter from the landlord saying that they've been evicted for non-payment of rent, while on Tony Roma's FB page it says that they suffered constant electrical problems in the building. Seems to be a stand-off between them and the landlord.

    Tesco have been doing take away pizzas the past month. 12 inch, unlimited toppings for a fiver. Unbeatable.

    Any update on when the Lodge is re-opening or will it even re-open?

    I presume the works at the roundabout on the Sallins road are the long discussed plans to make it two lanes? Anyone know how long it's likely to last - I'm worried we'll have a repeat of the motorway bridge on that road with weeks turning into months of disruptions.

    Was wondering what that was alright. I'v noticed a makeshift road cutting through the tress up the millenium park - is this just the road up to their compound maybe? Maybe its the start of the by-pass, yeeeoowww!

    Looks like it's just the builders compound - there's another entrance to it on the Sallins road towards Naas.

    I've attached the plans from Kildare CC - http://kildare.ie/CountyCouncil/RoadsandTransportation/PartVIII/R407SallinsRoadOsberstownRoundaboutUpgradeScheme/

    Marathon training in full swing, people getting in their 2-3 hour runs in during the week. I haven't ran in a month, don't feel a bit guilty. I'm not trying for the marathon this year though.

    Have many been into One New Row yet?

    Went up there a couple of months ago about 6pm - didn't think much of it - its very much set up to be a disco bar - bouncers, lack of furniture etc

    The real question is:

    Is Tony Roma's gone for good?

    Told my mam this morning that he got me a few cans when I was 14, and he did it for the price of 10 cigarettes. A harmless lad, who just kinda kept to himself.

    It's just like all the other energie fitness gym or any other commercial gym really equipment wise and staff wise.

    I was never there on peak hours so couldn't say what it was like but even on off peak hours it would still be busy enough.

    The Applegreen in Caragh are having a sale on Petrol and Diesel until the single lane bridge is fixed. Trying to drum up business seen as their passing trade has been rerouted. Cheaper than Newbridge, according to my dad.

    Ate in Thaiger (next to the Post Office) over the weekend. Picked up a voucher online. Was really nice I must say.
