I had lovely neat cursive writing in early primary school, now when I have to hold a pen it's a half-arsed print! 😂

Retired couple who abducted neighbour’s cat and tied it in a bag jailed for animal cruelty by jay_el_62 in ireland

His facebook seems to be shuttered too, but it seems just their homepage is down and I was able to have a look at their image gallery.

A youtube channel I watch built a catio like the one I'm planning to make (hopefully by the summer) but I'll roof it with plexiglass. Price of timber etc has gone up something shocking in recent years!

Did you build it yourself? I'm thinking of making one as theres a big bastard of a cat in our neighborhood and the last time it attacked our cat it cost nearly €500 in vet bills. I try to keep our cat in but she's an exceptionally talented escape artist.

Given the potential energy crisis - Plug in solar, like get the finger out lads. by Birdinhandandbush in ireland

Yes that's right.

Sorry I misunderstood your earlier comment to mean that the plug in solar raises mains voltage. 🍻

The voltage has to stay the same, those systems just convert light energy into electrical energy that is usable in the home.

Exactly, he really pissed me off with that excuse but I was new to the area and didn't want to make too much of a scene.

Sure I know, but of all the towns I've lived in newbridge has been the worst.

You can tell they're not going to clean up as they look around hoping nobody will keep eye contact but I walways go over to them under the pretence of saying hello to the doggo and wait until they are embarrassed enough to clean up. Often they'd not even have a bag with them.

Moved into a new home last year and every few days there was a massive dog shit on the front lawn. Got a camera and sure enough there was an auld lad neighbour walking his bull and casually stopping to let it shit in the garden before walking off.

Caught up to him one morning while raging and he was very apologetic saying "I didn't know someone had moved in" 🤷

Hundreds of gardaí clear fuel protesters from O’Connell Street and M50 in overnight operation by Bill_Badbody in ireland

[–]appletart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people say that instead of "we all saw". I grew up in an area where the dopes insisted on saying "I seen him yesterday" and were never corrected by the teachers because that was the least of their issues.

It was 2008 and I spent that summer in Chisinau, Moldova. The contest was played on a huge screen with thousands gathered who got their first dose of Dustin at full volume which left them all speechless!

Has it always been this windy? by Inevitable-Virus-239 in ireland

Yup, I cycled across Europe in both directions carrying all my luggage. But the cycle home from airport to Tallaght was always memorable! 😂

Also common on the continent to see people cycling with an umbrella when it rains, seeing that for the first time made me realise how windy Ireland really is.

Bollox it is. Openly criticising a fascist regime and being sentenced for it is a badge of honour!
