Places you wouldn’t normally hear about unless you know of it " Quids inn is the cheapest bar on the island so check that out. Jaks is good for food and drinks and has some great bands on throughout the week. Samuel webbs is always packed and a good craic. 1886 if you fancy a decent club vibe… plus it’s the go to place for the after party after the senior race… I was doing shots with the burchells, Hicky and Dunlop in there a couple of years ago | |||

They couldn't possibly meet or everyone who lives there will know they are swingers.
