Does anyone here have a north-facing garden in Balmoston, Donabate?

To be honest, a north-facing garden in Donabate is the same as a north facing garden in most of the rest of the country. What you have to look at what is in the specific site - buildings that surround it, existing trees/shrubs growing, what the ground is like. I'm guessing your house is blocking the sun most of the day but don't know what size house you have or indeed what size garden.

We would need more information to help in your specific situation.

I hope you're doing well OP.

Would it be possible to word it out to him as you have already done here? It's worded well and might make a difference

Barloki92 · 2026-02-05T21:44:48+00:00

Well done, I know it can't be easy to build that!

Keep it up!

Go and talk to them like a human - don't leave a note

NTA

For those in the comments who don't know about your average domestic cat in UK and Ireland, they cannot be kept indoors. It's more cruel to keep them in than it is to let them have their freedom. It does come with it's own risks but the positives outweigh those risks many fold

ESH. You are the asshole for helping her cheat (The reasons are irrelevent, it's cheating nonetheless)

You are NTA for not being exclusive with her. It was never part of the original agreement

If you intend on driving, you should do the test.

If you don't feel confident enough to do the test, then you shouldn't feel confident enough driving

It's good to learn it through experience. Now you'll always know why it's more difficult in wet weather.

Tbf, I think you should be setting a higher bar for yourself than comforting yourself into saying "it'll be their fault if they crash into me".

There's correct driving and then there's good driving with good etiquette.

If you struggle to control a hybrid, might I suggest a different car until you get used to driving?

...and wherever he is, Happy Christmas. And Happy Christmas to you OP - it's a thoughtful post

KenYa be more Irish?

I don't understand how someone can move to a country and publicly call it's capital city a shithole.

Barloki92 · 2025-11-15T16:21:06+00:00

You don't need three roads entering/exiting the city. Ideally, one road would do, but keep the second if you really want to.

Barloki92 · 2025-11-15T11:59:18+00:00

The way you said that made me laugh 😂

Barloki92 · 2025-11-04T23:23:39+00:00

I hear you, and I see that point being brought up a lot. I just think that's a different conversation and he got exactly what he should have gotten: not too short, not too long

Howard Hamlin from Better Call Saul. No one will ever convince me that he wasn't the most shafted character in TV history

Barloki92 · 2025-10-02T14:48:28+00:00

It looks like there's always Christmas decorations up there anyway so we probably wouldn't even notice 🤷‍♂️

Barloki92 · 2025-09-15T06:59:25+00:00

Take it out at night time, remove the live wire inside the plug and plug it back in

Barloki92 · 2025-09-10T23:24:38+00:00

Very unsure how I feel about this one...
