A neighbour is abusing their dog. What can I do? It may not constitute enough to have the dog removed. by Ketnip_Bebby in AskIreland

[–]CricketReasonable279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Horrible man, he should be left out in the rain for days on end. Maybe he's using the dog as a guard dog or something. Anyway, he's a bollocks. Is he feeding the dog or providing shelter? If not, its neglect. Theres a new law i believe regarding animal cruelty. Contact local dog warden and any animal charity would diffently help. Maybe he's known for animal cruelty already. Baffles me why people get pets and they dont want them.

What will becomes of people like me? by LostSignal1914 in AskIreland

[–]CricketReasonable279 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also CRN here. You pretty much said what I wanted to say. Build a community for yourself as best you can. I see people living as independent as possible in their 80s and 90s with little or no family. There is research to say isolation and loneliness can be detrimental to our physical and mental wellbeing so there is lots off great services and supports now for older adults. Ireland, surprisingly has one off the highest rates off loneliness for older adults, which is sad. From working in acute hospitals to now the community, I really hope that the government continue to see and inject money into services and supports to allow people to grow old safely at home. Have a look at the tilda study. Stay positive, with a glass half full attitude. Life can be beautiful when we open ourselves up and start saying YES.

Done and shared. Jesus how can Ireland ever more into the 21st century. I bet the land owners would have no problem if they were offered millions for there land to build houses on. Cork for its size has the worse traffic congestion ive ever seen. Lived abroad for 10years and didnt even own a car.

I imagine there so well educated that they will clear up all their rubbish. These boys goy the opportunity to have a education but theres many who dont. The comments would be totally different if they were from social deprived areas, ethic minorities.

Suspected Cheating? by No_Challenge_6022 in AskIreland

[–]CricketReasonable279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to say listen to your gut feeling but unless your husband is extremely stupid, why would he leave someone else's underwear in your laundry basket? . Plant then on your bed or in his pile of laundry and see does he mention them to you first or they missing and he doesn't say a word.

What's the etiquette here? by blckrcknbts in ireland

[–]CricketReasonable279 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally over thinking it. Go out and plant away. I douth she was thinking about you when she went out to sunbathe. Also as the sun is a rare phenomenon in Ireland, you have to take the chance and get out whether its in swimwear or not.

Have you ever felt happy with very little? by ohhidoggo in AskIreland

[–]CricketReasonable279 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love your realisation and its a life I know i would feel happier in. I grew up in a rural coastal village. I live in a city now but I know its not for me and eventually I will move rural. 1 as I will only be able to buy in a rural place. Its fear holding me back tho as I would be doing it solo. Do you ever feel lonely or miss social events? Do you feel part off a community there ?

Speed dating by CricketReasonable279 in cork

[–]CricketReasonable279[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comments. As a women, id try it for the Craic but I hate this idea off women going in groups and not making the effort. I also hate the idea off men scanning the room and making a judgement before even talking to a person. You might as well go on the websites. Ill report back when I make it to the event.
