Favourite: Dublin, many of you may hate it, but for me there's no place like home.
Hated: Jesenice in North West Slovenia. A socialist industrial abomination that makes me want to commit suicide just passing through it.
Favourite.....the best city in Ireland and i live here...Galway!!
Least Favourite...Tuam :D
I agree with Poor Student, I can see why people would hate Dublin, but it's home, so for me there's nothing like it.
At least we have something in common now. ;)Quote:

Fav. Cork, Bologna
Hate. London (a week is cool, anything more its a sh!te hole), Glasgow (third world), Dublin (not cos of the Dubs V everyone else thing. Cos its over priced, traffic is a nightmare, its actually well dodgy at night from what i've seen)
As over priced as most citys (you have to know where to go for the cheap stuff), we're working on our traffic problem, safe at night as anywhere i have been. Cork is a fantastic city aswell, I wouldnt just say a part of my green isle is a dump fo the sake of it.. For anybody not from here reading this who plans to visit Ireland, come to the capital, dont listen to the green eyed peoples republic of cork. :DQuote:
