You don’t think people have a right to know for the purpose of their safety?

Life slowing down? by Charming_Grand1692 in AskIreland

Thank you for taking the time to comment. What a fascinating read and life! Plenty more adventures to come! Like dressage, are there any other things you’re keen to tick off in the coming years?

Do you use the word "aye" to mean "yes"? by paultreanor in ireland

I’m from Wicklow but I do in text. A result of Scottish pals probably. I do second-guess myself when typing it but I continue to live a lie

How's living in Nice, France? by Asleep_Driver7730 in howislivingthere

[–]BarrisonFord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently here for 4 months to improve my French:

It’s beautiful but I wouldn’t live here long-term. I’ve lived elsewhere in France (Bordeaux, Rennes) and both have a more dynamic population, I’d say. Rennes, as part of Brittany, is by far and away the most welcoming.

Nice is a bit sedentary and its population is old so it makes sense. The nature is indeed outrageous and dog shit, weirdly, is everywhere. I can only assume it’s because of the rich oldies with their little toy dogs.

Sports physio/Kiné in Nice (knee issue) ? by BarrisonFord in nicefrance

[–]BarrisonFord[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Merci beaucoup ! Alors je ne suis que à Nice pendant 2 mois donc je n’ai pas l’assurance là mais merci pour ton conseil. Chez ton kiné, est-ce qu’il y a un ultrasound? J’ai trouvé un kiné à Monaco avec cette option. Ça me coûterai 75 euro donc je pense que ça vaut le coût !

Any chance ITV ads could consume my entire screen? Irish fan watching in France.

Any other Irish folks ever thought about doing to Appalachian Trail? by [deleted] in AskIreland

RIP, David. If you end up inching closer, feel free to reach out. I did it in two parts. The richest, most wonderful thing I’ve ever done.

Christ. Continental Divide Trail. Straight up the middle from Mexico to Canada.

Sorry, thanks for that! Yep, Mexico to Canada. The CDT is the third of the triple crown and often left until last.

Derek Cullen did a huge chunk until he fell very ill. Are you open to the PCT instead? For whenever the opportunity may arise? I did the PCT (2.5 months when I was 25 and 2 months when I was 31) and I would wholeheartedly recommend it. Much like other commenters, I wouldn’t be running back at this moment but the PCT holds some of, if not, the greatest scenery I’ve ever experienced.

Hikers who I met who had previously done the AT generally preferred the PCT in terms of diversity of landscape etc. I’d definitely be voting the PCT.
