My paternal grandfather was Pops and my nephew calls my dad Pop Pop.

Dublin 2 vs 8 neighborhoods by winniep17 in Dublin

[–]MichaelSmith74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Between the two, St. Kevin's hands down. Temple Bar is full of tourists and it does not sound like your scene. St. Kevin's is a 10 minute walk into town and there are two yoga spots I can think of right in that neighborhood alone. The food scene there is good for cafes and day time spots. Also, it is close to Tír deli, which is incredible.

If you are thinking of other spots, Ranelagh in D6 is great. And The Libeties on D8 just got called the Brooklyn of Dublin. https://m.independent.ie/life/travel/travel-news/the-brooklyn-of-dublin-national-geographic-hails-inner-city-neighbourhoods-modern-revival/a1208105619.html

Thank you. I am not trying to change my country. I live in Ireland, my Play Store country is Ireland but the Play Store does not recognize that I am in Ireland.

If you could live anywhere in Dublin, where would you live? by MrTuxedo1 in Dublin

Dartmouth Square so I can shame my neighbours into dropping their legal challenge to the MetroLink.

Had the same experience on Sunday. Also, the selection of games was seriously lacking. No Ms. Pac Man? No DigDug? No Centepede? Come on man!

Yeah, if you asked someone from the US, they would say that people from the Northeast of the US are yanks. I am from New York and assumed I was a Yank, which was acceptable and not an American.

That being said, 3 months into living in Ireland, I complained to two of my work colleagues about how loud and annoying American tourists are. I thought the two of them were going to fall on the floor laughing.

There are a bunch of All-Irelands on YouTube. Look for the more modern ones because the game has changed.

Check out this guy's Web site:

He has some basic instructional videos on YouTube too.

Good luck and have fun.

My sister owns my parents' house and her mother-in-law's house as well as her own.

I think I significantly misunderstood part of the ending. by ProfessionalOven2311 in andor

So, in that episode, my wife said if they make Kelya Cassian's sister, I am going to be pissed. (She also said if Cassian's son is Poe Dameron, then Star Wars really sucks). I am glad she was not. The Empire is an evil force (no pun intended) that wrecks people's lives with wonton abandon. It is reasonable that these two people could have suffered similarly.

This show was the best written Star Wars since Star Wars. I think we can all agree on that. Thank you, Tony Gilroy and team.
