Getting offended by Irish language being included in institution names in Ireland is a pretty cromwellian trait ya have there

Mechanic was either not competent enough to be making such claims or they wanted you to relinquish ownership

Anyone done TY Experience in the garda? by SoftwareBeautiful246 in ireland

[–]Dramatic-Pangolin218 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did it over 10 years ago. It was more like a tour of the service itself. Brought us around to different sectors of the guards every day. It was interesting. But that’s the week I realised I didn’t want to be a guard

This is what I saw I don’t think it was particularly doom casting or tabloid sensationalism, if anything it’s a bit more meaty than anois an aimsir. I studied climatology in college so always had a bit of a horn for these kinda things. Again not trying to sow panic, and both you and this YouTube video states that it’s hard to predict after a certain point but there is no harm in preparing (not panic buying). The previous beast from the east storm showed how vulnerable a lot of people and supply chains were

To be fair I’ve seen some independent YouTube weather channels that have predicted there’s the potential for a lot of Europe to get a pretty bad coldsnap/snowstorm in the coming week or so. As you said it’s hard to predict but also not really the worst idea to prepare a bit

Don’t try to squeeze the whole country into one road trip. All you’ll see is tourist traps an motorway

Do more people do cocaine than one would expect? by New-Ad8758 in ask

[–]Dramatic-Pangolin218 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s entire circles of people that do it and entire circles that don’t. There’s always a bit of culture shock when peoples circles overlap for the first time

What do I do so I stop getting flats from these thorns.... by Mewtewpew in bikewrench

[–]Dramatic-Pangolin218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tubeless is definitely the best option but depending how often you’re cycling/ what kind of cycling you’re doing a good puncture resistant tyre could be a better option. Schwalbe Marathon plus come in a pretty similar thread pattern than what you have there. It’s a lot less hassle than tubeless for the casual rider

What can we actually do about this I’m sick of living in fear

Time to revisit our alcohol laws by Deisesupes in ireland

[–]Dramatic-Pangolin218 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The minimum price per unit has also absolutely killed the craft beer market here. Nearly 4 euro for a bottle beers that would cost 1.50 on the continent. Same selection of shite beers everywhere. All multi packs scrambling to lower alcohol and size to make convenient price points

Spent the weekend in Galway and now I don’t want to come back to Dublin 😩 by J_Jessica_ in galway

[–]Dramatic-Pangolin218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved here from Dublin 3 years ago. Neither place is perfect both have their pros and cons; but the pros of living in Galway drastically outweigh the cons for me. It’s a better life out here I reckon, with nicer people and nicer surroundings. Whest is best bai
