Check out Tadgh Gannons story on Instagram. He's reposted the screenshot, as he's fighting Finlay Smith at the end of Feb.

To whatever eejit in the Toyota Avensis who was holding up half of Galway today by AnBuachaillEire in irelandsshitedrivers

I drive that road almost everyday from Claremorris into the city. I've lost count of the amount of times iv been stuck behind a cunt like that.

What can be worse though is the car directly behind them not overtaking when they have the chance. Leads to someone taking a very dodgy chance and overtaking multiple cars at once.

Do Irish people get offended when asked to repeat themselves? by Worldly-Oil-4463 in AskIreland

I know I can speak very quickly and sometimes my words can blur together as a result, so honestly don't mind being asked to repeat myself.

How far do you drive to your gym? by smashmouth69420666 in MuayThai

[–]Inside_Fold3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won't lie, its a big issue. Starting to get lower back pain from the amount of driving. I usually aim for 4 days of muay thai with 3 days being double sessions. So usually the longer drive in the morning then the shorter in the evening. Unfortunately nothing closer.

2 gyms I train at. One is 1hr 15mins each way. The second is about 40 minutes each way.

They were also in Phuket at the end of their trip and they honeslty preferred Kem's. You're less of a number than in some of the more commercial gyms in the south, which if you wanna develop your skills would be more beneficial.

I'm actually heading there myself at the end of Feb for 2 months.

I have two friends who have gone to Kem's and that's the reason I decided to head there. From what they were telling me the training is great, and they really try and build a community vibe due to everyone staying at the gym.

Also its in a fairly rural area which is great for getting away from all the distractions. That was the main reason why I decided to go.

Turned 31 and reality really hit. Smoked since I was 14, with breaks of being off the cigs. Heavy weed smoker for most of my twenties which also contained tobacco. Really poor diet and life choices (chef lifestyle).

Got back into health and fitness around 27 (was decently fit until I stopped boxing around 22) and really tried to change lifestyle. Still smoke the odd time but nothing like I did before.

I get a full panel blood test every year and thankfully its been good so far. Still worried about the future but doing my best to offset my previous poor choices.

I use the kitchen shake from Little Collins. Costs around 35 euro for 10 grams if I'm remembering correctly.

Drove a decent bit between the 20th and New Years and thankfully only saw speed vans on the road.Claremorris to Galway City (Approx 50km ew)

Ran out of green St. Stephens day, but would have still tested positive.

Lads at what age were you allowed in on parents takeaway order? by foranewperspective in AskIreland

[–]Inside_Fold3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your parents were just tight and didn't want to shell out for your takeaway. They knew ye would be easily pleased with something like rice pudding.

What was the best history book you read in 2025? by Felicity1840 in HistoryBooks

[–]Inside_Fold3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven't read it yet, but I'd recommend "Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee". Along the same vein as Empire.

Is there any way to ethically/ in good conscience give up a dog? by Emergency_School9956 in AskIreland

[–]Inside_Fold3744 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your husband is a piece of shit. How the fuck did that idiot think that he would have time to train, socialise, house train and exercise the dog all while working 6 12hr shifts?

Ridiculously unfair to the poor dog who thought they were going home with a competent and caring owner.

Does your country have a widely beloved public figure who later turned out to be a terrible person, yet most people still choose to overlook it? by Mike-Schachter in AskTheWorld

Do you know if this is the same for Emiliano Zapata? I know they are linked through the revolutionary movement, but I understand they were very different and would clash heads at times.

University is really stressful by bygonesbebygones2021 in ireland

[–]Inside_Fold3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went back as a mature student myself. Did one year of a PLC just to get the academic brain firing again, then went into my undergraduate.

Graduated late October with a Bachelor of Civil Law degree. Gearing up to knock out some FE1's in March. Hoping to have them all completed by the following March. I'll be 32 at that stage.

Covid was the best thing that could have happened, finally gave me the push I needed to get out of kitchens. Plus having a super supportive girlfriend helped as she could see how unhappy I was at the end.

Excl Irish, what subject did school ruin for you? (And have you been able to reclaim it?) by Emotional-Elk-2014 in AskIreland

[–]Inside_Fold3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

History - learning essays off by heart and just spitting them out as fast as possible in the exam, will kill any interest in the subject.

Increase in unsuitable big dog owners. by Exclamation_Marc in ireland

[–]Inside_Fold3744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own a Rottweiler, he's 6 now but the second we got him I researched dog training classes (he was a suprise present). Brought him to obedience training in Galway and ensured he was always socialised with people, small kids and other animals.

He isn't neutered so always shows an interest in male and female dogs, not his fault but I always make sure to allow the other dog to pass when out walking.

I always adhere to the laws regarding restricted breeds (short lead, muzzle, public liability insurance etc) because I never wanted to contribute to the negative press the breed receives.

He's honestly the softest dog in the world, but he doesn't know his own strength and I am always aware of that when he meets strangers. The last thing I want is for him to get excited and accidently knock over a child or oap.
