Antonio Nah, I was only slagging Ballina. I've only passed through the place but one of my friends is from there and never has anything nice to say about the place. As for Mayo ... probably my favourite couty in Ireland (apart from my own). Love the rough wild rural areas, out near the Ceide fields are a good example. Spectacular views!! John Joe Welcome to the site! Too true, you can probably get drugs in every town & village in Ireland. Sorry for slow reply lads, been up to my eyes!

Maybe you don't know it, but I'm Italian and live in Italy and I only go to Ireland for holidays. And do you know where I feel like home the most? Yeah, in county Mayo! Maybe the weather isn't that friendly and the landscape suffers from this situation, but I can assure you that I like it all the same. I visited Achill Island, Céide Fields and the Murrisk many times and almost always with rain or bad weather, but I have good memories of those days :-) I use to say that rain or bad weather is peculiar of Ireland and it wouldn't be wonderful without them.

I had dinner twice at Murphys Bros restaurant and enjoyed a lot around the town. I was there several times and I like it. People are great and friendly. I was just reporting what that guy told me about the place. But you know, the green is always greener on the other side, and nobody sees the good of the place where they live, while all other places seem definitely better.

They live on the fifth floor of a big building and I always refused to use the elevator. I don't know how many thousands times I climbed those stairs, but I can reckon I lenghtened my life by some months :-) Do you think that pushing drugs is the only thing to do in Ballina? Well, when I was in Ballina, some years ago, I picked up a guy that was hitchhiking. He told me that he wanted to get out of there because the place sucks and the weather sucks and the food sucks... He told me he had one thousand reasons to flee that place ;-) When I lived with my parents I used to climb stairs everyday.
