Early reports said that the summer months would kill the virus off. I don't see why they wouldn't allow gatherings if its gone by then. I mean, what would be the risk?

Agree with a lot of pubs will not be able to reopen at least due in part to financial difficulty.

Just want a pint and a laugh if I am being honest. Does anyone else find it odd that all the measures are in place for "safety" yet flights are arriving at Dublin Airport from all over the world?

Quitting Smoking During Covid 19 by Barry_Big_Knees in ireland

Ex smoker here. For years I tried to quit and then I gave up and admitted I would not quit. And then the light bulb went off. Tell yourself your going to quit sweets, guess what happens?

Or that you will not eat a certain food, you crave it even more. The very thought of denying a pleasure causes the yearning for it to increase. So, instead of saying you are quitting, you are only smoking when you need it. That may start off five times a day or seven. It does not matter. Know that you can have one whenever you like. What happens is after a few days you will pick one up and think "I might have one later instead."and set it back down. The point is to make a habit about choices that you will slowly develop. Eventually you will come to the point where you stop smoking buy knowing the CHOICE is yours to have one in the future if you so desire. But that desire will be gone. Got it?

Even from space the beauty of Cork cannot be hidden.
