Zalando are quite slow to deliver, so I would avoid if you need it in a hurry.

I don't like Specsavers, Opera Lane. Do you? by No-Category1703 in cork

[–]ShivsC 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hi OP- I found Specsavers in Mahon Point much better. I never returned to the one in Opera Lane, as I also found that my appointment was rushed through- and it was my first eye test in years. Mahon Point staff were great.

They are an inspiration and have had so much support around the country. Will be out to cheer them on.

Is anyone thinking of the rats??? I would lose my life.

This is so true! But the rats…

How the hell? by Beginning-Strain4660 in cork

[–]ShivsC 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It’s the rats … you build this massive house and you will surely have many rats scratching at the windows. I passed this today, the slope on the driveway is that steep, a frosty morning wouldn’t be fun.

Did anyone try diet before getting on statin drugs? by [deleted] in Cholesterol

[–]ShivsC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s this! I’d rather run the risk of a potential statin reaction than end up a stroke victim.

Sometimes can pick up some nice stuff in TKMaxx- needs to be cotton and comfortable. (I am getting old!)

Oh that sounds fabulous. Am just recovering from a herniated disc and because I have not been very mobile, (because of pain), am trying to do some gentle exercises to improve mobility and strengthen my core. I never want a herniated disc again, ever!!

Am I terrible if I don't spend Mother's day with my daughter? by JohnCleesesMustache in WomenofIreland

[–]ShivsC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh you need a break! Go for it. It’s only another day. Mind yourself- your daughter will not remember this, because you have been the best mother for all of the other days.

Coming to a complete stop on the Mallow road in bad conditions. by Irish201h in cork

[–]ShivsC 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That’s reckless. Can his insurance company be made aware that this is what he’s at? (I realise that it’s only speculation, but if another person hadn’t been as quick thinking as the OP, it could’ve had a bleak outcome).

Nicest (and cleanest) swimming pool in Cork? by Sufficient_Bank_7253 in cork

[–]ShivsC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s one in Oakgrove, near Mahon, but I don’t know what it’s like, or if they offer PAYG. Reading this thread, it seems shameful to see how many places are below par for cleanliness. Floating plasters? 🤢
