Larne: The Centre of the Universe

Larne, surely the most happening place on earth. From its bustling port to Mr. Sloan's factory, there are many interesting, entertaining, and legal things to do. Places to visit include my house, Paul's Barber Shop, Number One Records and BELLISSIMO!!!

This is Larne: the flats. At night it looks like this:

Well actually no, that's not it at all, but the first one is. It is a town of around 23,000 I suppose, and is situated on the Antrim coast in Northern Ireland. It's a major port due to its proximity to Scotland. The town itself appears to suck, but it's not really all that bad!
I WENT to Larne Grammar School. Here's the door I walked through 'most ever weekday morning:

Of course, there's the local football team. The glory days are here again - The Irish Premier League!

There are few attractions around Larne, with the Olderfleet Castle providing a good laugh, but we're not far from a little village called Gleno, in which lay the 'not-so-secret' location of Maud's Ice Cream Factory. A walk round to the waterfall shouldn't go amiss.

Finally on this topic, the Antrim Coast.

This is the Chaine Memorial Tower, after Mr. James Chaine who was rich, apparently. There's not much to it. It just stands at Larne harbour all day, watching people swim in the swimming pool. Funny, I got lifted for that, and he never!

On a drive up the coast you'll pass through this thing. It's called the Black Arch, near the Devil's Churn, and was apparently cheaper and easier than building a road around it. NOTE: it is traditional to honk ones car horn loudly and uncontrollably when passing though.

This is a wee town called Glenarm. Rarely as sunny as this.

This is "Brown's Bay". Again, I do not know how they got a sunny, summery picture. Modern technology is wonderful.

This concludes our tour. I hope you enjoyed what I did. Come and see us all some time.

Please explore the rest of my site, which is not as local. But this is a local page, for local people. You may use the navigator below.
