WOULD YOUR CHILD LIKE A PARTY?
The latest craze is the All Weather Pitch in Clogherhead. It costs only €20 for 1 hour and after the hour you can continue the party there on the pitch or go to the Community Hall where they can run around having great fun in secure, friendly and safe surroundings for only €30 per hour. And then they just flake out with tiredness, happy but tired.
