Anyone visiting Ireland should definitely check out this video on YouTube and then go check out the town of Monaghan!!! (Or don't, whatever.)
Discover Monaghan - The Fun ENDS Here

And while you're at it, enjoy my play-by-play facebook chat conversation with the creator of "Discover Monaghan," eviltoaster3 (AKA Stephen). My comments = bold ; His responses = ((italics))

a duck!
the church!
a dump or truck site or something!
((Ah great, live commentary. This should prove to be amusing.))
it IS the little town on the way to Dublin!
((I think that sentence would be much much better if you had of capitalised the the instead of the is.))
I like the looks of the mental hospital - could be cozy
((And apparently, that should be mental institution...))
ah - in need of some politically correct correction are we?
MY town has a hole in the ground too!
((Yeah but that's probably from a meteor or explosion or something. That one is from someone's wise idea to build an underground carpark and then go bankrupt halfway through it.))
why is the roundabout 'magic'?
((I actually have no idea, hence the inverted commas.))
ah the ole waterless swimming hole
((It's closed because the roof was caving in. No joke.))
--- Brief interruption for trip to Mason's for drinking and debauchery.
Good Times!
End of Interruption!! ---
From Monaghan's gift shop of used bottles to "should you injure yourself" = nice segue!
(( Well you see, there's been controversy here about our hospital continuously losing services for years now and I've been informed that one of the alternative hospitals I mentioned is getting closed as well. ))
Classy is defined by a bar named the "lost and found"
(( Lost and Found closed and moved 5 miles over the border so they could sell drink cheaper. Ironically, it actually was the best pub here and it probably was the classiest too. ))
aaaaand creepy ending - who's that wacko sitting on the church steps anyway?!
(( No one has gotten what the end references. It's a bit of an obscure movie but still...and I suppose I am a bit of a wacko. ))
-- End Film --
P.S. Can't wait till my parents get here for our Ireland road trip - absolutely spending time in Monaghan!!!! I'll let you know when :):)
(( Yes the offer to come here still stands although I'm surprised you would after watching that video. ))
(( P.S. If you really want to show your love then you should post the video to your page or blog or something!! ))
Done and done!
