It's walking distance from the airport

Just come out of the airport and turn left. It's only a mile away.

The rose cottage is a nice b&b but it's in an unmarked road

Bonnie. The rose cottage is the most beautiful place in the world. There's no smell of piss and weed at all.

"Nice B 'n' B", in Swords, good one!

can confirm. graduated from there 10 years ago, still haven't recovered

Can confirm, I am in my final year and the roof is perpetually crumbling on the students who attend

@@DrowzeeVEVO just out of curiosity, have they fixed the fucking heating yet? I graduated in 2017 and back then the school was freezing and they *refused* let us wear our jackets despite the heating being fixed. We had to make our parents write a letter of complaint to ms knightly and threaten to report the school the department of education, it was actually that bad. Even worse was the fucking mold in all the classrooms (which we took pictures of and emailed to the department of education, so the school literally just painted over it when it was checked on)

I am a parent of a kid who was made wear someone elses smelly black shoes or second choice was to opt for just socks. Just because his black shoes had a tiny dark grey stripe on the sole and other kids bouncing about in red air max. All the while gaslighting us at the parent teacher meeting telling me what a dream he is. PTSD.

@@catherineennis388 I had a friend who was a straight A student, very meek, loved by all the teachers, humiliated infront of everyone when our darling headmaster caught her wearing a black jacket with green ON THE INSIDE and decided to have a go at her about it

they are n all yep

That would be fucking epic! Get a gofundme page going, be sorted.

It would be more a bible than a book.... of only this man had been around when i was at school id have aced all my exams and could be a hipster pox now paying over the odds to buy a kip of a house in stoneybatter

this aged well

And so he did

There's a good uk book called Crap Towns.

🤣🤣🤣 and a lot of the Rover Valleyans are from somewhere that isn't or aren't Swords ( who knows if Swords is singular or plural). I know people in River Valley that aren't even from one of the Swords. One is from Raheny, the other is from Harmo.

I thought it was named after S-words, like sword, skanger, shifty-looking, Subaru.

@@mrkeogh Yes well obviously that too.

Sword - First recorded use of the word before 900AD; Middle English; Old English sweord; cognate with Dutch zwaard, German Schwert, Old Norse sverth

Agreed.

I can confirm this is true

I was forced to attend st finians CC But I can assure you that it was one of the better ones , the Cristian brother's school had to send the students home on a cold day ( the building was constructed with fiberglass, no joke) and fingal CC in my time was for students that where dismissed from all the other second level colleges in swords

Lol they're so bad that I had to go to Portmarnock... That's saying alot, cause Portmarnock is bad too...

Same I lived there in 2000 just for a year. Remember the Slaughtered Lamb pub?

@@simonh6371 I must have missed that one but I think I hit all the others lol...The Pound was my favourite.

We all have

JC's was bought by Dunnes and Wrights was renamed

Fingal was invented to confine all the taxes earned from the airport to line the pockets of Fianna Fail councillers

I lived there in a shared house in 2000. A lad from Selbridge used to order our hash for us as he had ''connections'' from a guy called Skinny. One day I asked him to call Skinny but he was on holiday. So Alan calls another number and says ''Hoi is dat Piggy?''. We drove to JC's car park and a rosy cheeked chubby lad sorted us out.

Please get me out of Ireland.

Nah its in Ireland mate.

It's not rich by any means at all. It's shit just like the rest of this miserable nation.

Don't speak about your sister like that

That isn't a high bar
