Tuam
Tuam, the smallest city in Europe, spiritual home of Galway football, and home to most of the Irish travelling community. In fact it is said that the exact position of Tuam will never be marked accuratly on a map as half of the town is on wheels.
Amongst Tuams most well known sons are the Saw Doctors, and Lt Dick Dowling, who with 47 men and 6 cannon, turned back a Union force of 2000 men during the American Civil War at the battle of Sabine Pass. To the best of my knowledge the Saw Doctors were not involved in the battle, but may have provided entertainment to the troops at an "Afters" party.
Mathematicaly proven to be located at the exact centre of the Universe, Tuam is a generally accepted to be one of the most pleasant towns in the world. This is not just the opinion of people who live there, but of people who live close to it also. In fact it is known that when a Tuam man dies and approaches the Pearly Gates, an angel comes to greet him and say:
"You will not like it here. It's not Tuam".
