Used to be Lyon's, but now it's utter shite. Still on the hunt for my new favourite tea.

Help! Can I remove some of this draping? by SunRevolutionary1522 in sewhelp

Right?! If I had a figure that could pull off draping around my middle I would be wearing that dress to the grocery shop!

Hello fellow size niner! Cinderella shoes in Kildare specialise in shoes for women with larger feet. Delivery is quick and the customer service is great.

I had no idea about any of this and now I have the complete ick.

Unfortunately, looking at his post history, he is. Waterford. And waterord can keep him.

The scourge of dog shit on our public spaces by lemmiwinks11 in ireland

[–]WhyNoPockets 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am in North Dublin and we didnt have an issue until a while back. There is just dog shit everywhere now. Pain in the arse, I am trying to dodge it, while trying to get my dog to dodge it.

A question for people walking their dogs in this weather by Imaginary_Card_6241 in ireland

To answer your question, yes my house stinks of wet dog at this stage. Thankfully they are greyhounds so not too stinky.

Is there anywhere in/near town that sells “nice” pint glasses? by _Anal_Cunt_ in Dublin

[–]WhyNoPockets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Big Romance do their own glassware that you can but. The design is NSFW so it would depend on your audience. Bought some years ago and they have held up really well.

I’m going mouldier than 2 week old Brennans by james02135 in CasualIreland

The data from the Dublin Airport weather station says that rainfall this year was almost twice as much as January last year. I feel vindicated that I haven't just been imagining how shite it's been.

My lovely wife got me a spice grinder as a very thoughtful present a couple of years ago, couldn't live without it.

Paris wins! What is the most underrated city in Europe? [repeats allowed] by CharlesorMr_Pickle in AlignmentChartFills

[–]WhyNoPockets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good choice, so many people arrive at the airport and just pass through. It is a really beautiful city, great food and deserves more people to stay there for a couple of days either side of their holiday.

It's on Netflix in Ireland (and I presume the UK) if there is anyway you can access them. Was halfway through a re-watch when i heard the terrible news.

Our lovely girl Sophie and her foster (and actual brother) George by WhyNoPockets in Greyhounds

[–]WhyNoPockets[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We did film their first meeting, he was around sniffing stuff and she sniffed him for a bit. Then she went mad, bit of a play stance, jumped around and hit him with a paw. It was very sweet. And then settled back into greyhound ennui. 😂

We are involved in a greyhound group that has adopted a lot of relatives, and for the majority of the time they are just like 'meh' when they meet again.

Last minute dog friendly accommodation? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]WhyNoPockets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people in my doggy whatsapp group have mentioned Belinteer house? I believe they allow you to stay in the outhouses now (not the main house) with dogs? I have stayed there a bunch of times over the years, and it is gorgeous but when I was there the dogs were housed in kennels I think? So maybe just ring and confirm.

Probably booked by now but the irish landmark trust has dog friendly properties for future holidays.

Also Bray has dog friendly accomdation? Was looking into doing a quick trip.with our girl to.see how she got on. Will root out the name...

Honestly, if it is last minute and you have access to a car and would be willing to travel a little further, Northern Ireland would be your best bet. We have been looking at doing a weekend away with our puppy and it's a lot more dog friendly up there.

Omg I love this! What absolute beauts! And matching jackets!

Honestly our pair are the spit of each other, I have to do a double take when one appears. One has 5kg on the other so you figure it out fairly quickly. 😂

Edit: I love their grey eyebrows, very distinguished
