Heard that Bru / The Marsh House / The Thatch Pub are all in Financial Difficulty and closing after xmas.
Also heard Pheasant being knocked in Feb and apartments being built …
Has Anyone heard anything????
these places dont do themselves any favours people have copped on that you can drink at home for a fraction of the price and not have to worry about taxis , drink driving/ babysitters
I noticed that the thatch wasnt veyr busy any time I was in there, just doesnt have the charm the little place did/
sister said romanza restaurant going too……said food nice but obviouly not too busy….think every pub is going to find the same. When you can buy a box of Miller for bout €19 for 20 botles thats less than a €1 a bottle……if we have a few bob to spend on going out its so much cheaper to stay in instead. Miss the social thing about going out…..but its too much to pay to go out just for that.
romanza! God thats not even open 6 months, not a good time to start a new business
I heard a big Farmer from the slane road killed himself in his barn last Friday and my cousin told me a barrister in dublin took his life due to the stresses of keeping up his lifestyle and paying for a HUGE wedding they had in the summer, alot of people have lost there arses in the drop in bank share prices, I know my SIL has lost over 40k 😯 😯 😯 She was looking at her AIB shares as her pension
yeah my sister lives down the road from the pig farmer that shot himself, she only just told me about it
its a terrible time for peopleIt will be some Christmas for that family and for many others who will have loved ones kill on the roads over the holidays, but think you could accept an accident easier then someone taking there own life.
Right or wrong my heart was breaking looking as the maddie mc cann video on sky news, so for anyone with money worries there is always someone worse off then you
my da knew that farmer who died .. he left a 2 page note .. things really get on top of some people its very sad at this time of year.. i think the banks are to blame for alot of the trouble giving out 100% mortgages to people they know wouldnt be able to cope
my friend’s hubby is a paramedic and said all week last week all he dealt with was sucides….and one little 4month old baby who died of cot death…how sad….he said it’s horrific not only for the families involved but he also has to carry that for christmas and he’s working all christmas…..
Its so sad when people just feel they can’t cope at Christmas or any other time of the year. Money is a funny thing. It can buy you some nice things in life and give you peace of mind but when you get used to it and it goes it can be a curse.
If only people could see money really isnt everything. I used to worry about money just like everyone else and where it was coming from and going too. But I had my rude awakening when my little girl died suddenly at 5yrs old. Her birthday was yesterday and she would have been 9. I miss her but I still enjoy Christmas but I dont stress over the money thing. Money will come and go and if we’re lucky we might have a bit andhave our good times. Many people see the two days. But everthing changes with time and bad times can become better times.
I wish those who feel the stress of financial loss could take a step back and realise its only money and material things. Life is so much more precious and brings so much more happiness.
Lets hope there is no more sad news for families over Christmas and New Year.

I did hear that Bru could be closing alright, shame I liked it there!
It was very sad about the pig farmer, he was actually a first cousin of DH’s Dad… terrible to think that there is no other way out… he left notes for each of his children, so he had it planned.. terrible.heard on radio today that zavvi (sp) is in trouble too apparently they but their stuff from woolworths wholsalers… they have a branch in the marshes
Yeah I heard he got out of the pig business a few months back and the bank repossed two jeeps from him last months.
Someone told me that he had a drink problem years ago and was on the dry for many many years, I dont know if this is true or not but anytime I met the man he would just say hello and was very very shy and quiet.
His family are in my prayers
