The county is still on a comedown after an incredible weekend at the Electric Picnic. Tweeters weren’t in their usual high spirits but still managed to make us laugh.The stunning documentary ‘The Town’ aired this week and the reaction was colossal.It’s all in our tweets of the week.
Good to see the TV spotlight being put on real people living in a real town Portlaoise. #TheTown

It’s been a demanding week.
Walking out of the picnic I heard a lad turn to his friend and say “you’d want to have your witts about you in there” and I’ve never heard someone sum it up better

Stradbally was looking well.
Our families were very affected by Richie and Julieka’s story of their son Denis. A reminder to us all how important it is to talk when you’re struggling ?#GoggleboxIRL pic.twitter.com/HaX0zi1fcO
