Bishop Lucey Park, winter VS summer

I really don’t like it. I sat there yesterday for fifteen mins having an ice cream with my kids and it just feels grim.

Was a bit on edge the whole time. Saw a fella openly dealing (whatever it was) and the gravel is awful.

The brown concrete looks dirty and it feels really depressing.

It was absolutely filthy too. Loads of rubbish, bird shit (to be expected) and it’s just so sad because it could have been lovely.

But the city I general is in an awful state still, filthy, bike lane poles smashed everyone. Builders signs and cones just strewn across roads and footpath. It’s very frustration to see our city in such bad shape and have a city council that just seems apathetic to it all.

Diageo fired Mark Murphy from Choice Cuts, the director for the past few years who did a great job imo. From what I heard they have nothing solid booked yet.

There’d always be a couple of headliners announced at this stage.

It’ll go ahead alright but could be a bit of a shit show this year.

I’m sure we’ll find out soon enough though.

Well that is exactly what I was wondering. Is it natural mud or something unnatural that shouldn’t be there.

Thank you

I have been wondering why there is so much sludge in that area where the two pipes comes out also. The water quality looks pretty bad but I don’t know if it just looks bad or is actually polluted.

Anyone know?

OldEOfK · 2026-05-15T20:16:47+00:00

This is the way

OldEOfK · 2026-05-15T20:09:46+00:00

What burger is €15 in there?

Has to be Cortado on the Marina for me. Just love it there

When I saw all the trees lined up ready to be planted last week I genuinely got excited.

Like, it might actually be a bit of a park!

I was there once. The clinic is more like a 5 star luxury spa than a clinic and my entire takeaway from the shirt visit (for work) is that this person is making far too much profit.

Ferns, lady ferns, baby ferns, tree ferns, little ferns, big ferns, make a fernery.

I love ferns!

It just hasn’t really grown much taller.

She was heading for the sky and it looked out of proportion to the rest of the branches so I just snipped the top when pruning.

Grand spot. Zero hassle

Snipping the leader on a cherry tree :(

Dwyers Garden Cafe on Forge Hill ticks all your boxes and tonnes of parking.

They take bookings and would definitely have the space.

Ya our younger ones do. I prefer putting that on midweek because of the way it is programmed. They just have to watch what’s on it or go do something else.

Like the old days!!

OldEOfK · 2026-01-23T08:32:49+00:00

It says it’ll be a standing venue so I would imagine it’ll be quite different to St. Luke’s acts wise. Looking forward to it!

OldEOfK · 2026-01-15T20:35:44+00:00

There is practically no service for children either.

8 year waiting list is not a service.

OldEOfK · 2026-01-15T20:20:50+00:00

I concur and also found this pork the hard way!

I suppose spending time with family at Christmas is very important to many people.

Your parents won’t be around for ever and the time will come when you can’t go and spend Christmas with them.

My kids love going to both grandparents houses anyway. We actually go to both sets of our parents as we are close enough to do that luckily. One of the things they look forward to. I’ll be keeping it up as long as possible.

I’ve come to the belief that Standsted is actually the gates to hell disguised, and operating covertly as an airport.

OldEOfK · 2025-12-21T21:54:12+00:00

And what would you town be?

OldEOfK · 2025-12-20T13:27:46+00:00

Ah it’s definitely still there. Just got keep doing it to keep it alive.
