Christmas at the Hideout

Christmas is upon us, it seems.

On Friday the official switching on of the town's new Christmas lights takes place. But there are already a number of places dressed for the season.

I'm impressed by what Martin Myles has done in the Hideout, it looks really Christmasy. And there's a programme of Christmas season suggestions available too, including a special Christmas Dinner menu at €28 a head and a New Year Eve Gala Night with dinner at €40 per person.

Check it out. And if you like to play darts, he has a series of Tuesday Night competitions between now and Christmas with prizes of turkeys and hams.

Don't know the entry fee, but it is bound to be cheaper than a turkey.
