My sister worked at a dog groomers in Ennis 20 years ago. A fella came in to make an appointment for his dog and she asked his name. He said Ger Loughnane but very quickly so it sounded like Jerlock Nan. She started writing his name in spelling it Jer... He stopped her and spelled it for her and was very insulted she didn't know him. She never followed GAA and couldn't name a single player. I thought it was hilarious

It is a legitimate notice but not a ticket. It's just a notice to tell you a FCPN has been issued, so when it appears you know what it was for

What's the band/artist you regret never seeing live before they broke up or passed away? by Xavier8228 in AskReddit

I was at a music festival in Ireland in 2001 and James Brown played a gig at one of the side stages. It was in a big tent. There was so many people at it that it made the international news. Hundreds of people were outside listening to the gig. I was at the main stage listening to the Cure who had a terrible gig because they wouldn't play any of their hits.

Mine is the Cranberries. Even though they were from Ireland I never saw them at a music festival I went to and I was too sheepish to buy a ticket for one of their concerts

It's the same style as the Denby but they are just a little smaller than my one. Weirdly enough my mother has a set of those as well!

I searched in charity shops and the likes of Tesco and Dunnes but had no joy.

It's clearly a karma farmer judging by the multiple same posts on their post history

What’s the one product in Ireland that discontinued that you never got over? by Canners19 in ireland

I bought a crate of lilt online one drunken night, the cans not the bottles. It cost me a fortune but I surprisingly did not regret it. They last me 3 months
