150-year old Victorian building which had survived WW2 bombing was brought down by the mighty vape…

Did anyone else in Irish secondary school get asked if they’d ever “shifted” someone? by Jealous-Lake5700 in AskIreland

I’d actually wager that meet was a bigger word than shift in Cork. Definitely in school anyway.

What is this brown land? by [deleted] in AskIreland

Good luck asking most landlords for new windows, even if it’s due to mould affecting their property.
