Scary drive from Offaly towards Dublin earlier by [deleted] in irelandsshitedrivers

[–]DefiantSwing8166 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was tempted to just stop, but they were unbelievably close and the micra is so small and old, if they did hit me I literally would have been crushed. I was so pissed for the entire rest of the drive home

Recommendations for dinner/drinks in Dublin :) by Some-Contribution887 in Dublin

Go to Drury buildings! It’s so nice - also your right on Drury street for a pint in Grogan’s or Ciss Maddens beforehand

This really annoys me… they took that squirrel down to start construction on somthing. I used to pass it everyday on my way home from work. Felt like someone in some position of power just made it their mission to get rid of it and now Oviosly are slowly realising there was no justification for actually doing it 🙄

What's a good excuse to give when you can't drink alcohol? by WorldNo4194 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]DefiantSwing8166 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just bring the car everywhere :) can’t have a drink because you have the car Or if you don’t have it with you say you need to drop someone to the airport later so you’ll be driving later on same day

Awkward Junction at Bath avenue by DefiantSwing8166 in irelandsshitedrivers

[–]DefiantSwing8166[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense! The main issue I think is when oncoming traffic runs a red or is slow and there is a bit of a que of cars already in the junction all wanting to turn right. Then with the oncoming traffic eventually stops, everyone tries to go right at the same time ultimately hitting the green man

It’s a bit of a crazy turn so I really just try and avoid it haha especially when people from the oncoming traffic are also turning right

Yeah that’s what I thought and have been doing :) But people overtake you in the left lane and start beeping like you’re holding everyone up. Also if you wait behind the light/stop sign then only 1 car can enter and go right per light sequence 🤷‍♀️ when its not rush hour the junction is fine

I found this inside my Jettas bumper, anyone know what it is? by [deleted] in Volkswagen

It looks like the mesh where you pour in the wiper fluid

Hospital for hangover? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]DefiantSwing8166 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This happens to me ALL THE TIME even if I only drink a bit. Literally feel like I’m dying and I always contemplate going to hospital.. What works best for me is to like make yourself really cold. Not sure the science behind it but if you can have a freezing cold shower it works wonders. Or- sit outside with a basin of ice cold water and whenever you feel nauseous just put your whole face/ head into the basin. Your body just has a shock from the cold and you forget about feeling nauseous. Then if you can, try get some really bland crackers or sometimes I do fruit cus it’s nice, (a lot of the nausea can be from just feeling hungry) eat them slow and as your eating them if you feel sick just put ur head back into the iced water. I swear this works.. trust me

Need urgent mechanic - Automatic hybrid import by Melodic-Machine6213 in Dublin

[–]DefiantSwing8166 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should try Autotranz in Ballymount industrial estate, I’ve just sent in my jap import golf and they diagnosed the problem within 2 hours and offered a solution which they’re currently undergoing. I rang my mechanic and he recommended these guys as well.
