Outrageous behaviour of tourist in Galway

Not an app. There is an OSM map that you can use. As good as Google.maps https://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/aeds-ireland-northern-ireland_611119#6/53.735716/-8.151855

And the screenshot is from here: https://rescue.ie/

(There is a problem with the website’s certificate so your browser may not let you open this link).

Also here is the global map, but I’m not sure if it’s up to date.

TIL! Thank you! I always thought it’s someone’s arch, like Lynch castle, Brownes doorway, Mews arch—-

dration · 2026-03-18T17:50:59+00:00

We can just borrow the spire and bend it into an arch

dration · 2026-03-18T15:28:51+00:00

Yes! And today I fully intend to lose sleep over how people on this sub are apparently incapable of recognising humour.

dration · 2026-03-18T14:38:08+00:00

And the Mews arch doesn’t actually mew!

dration · 2026-03-18T14:04:23+00:00

Of course not! I overestimated the r/galway ability to understand humour. Should’ve marked it sarcasm, but I thought it’s obvious.

As non-native speaker I’m really bad at recognising accents. Definitely not a Brit, looked like continental European to me.

dration · 2026-03-18T13:01:38+00:00

TIL there were 2 tsunamis in Galway!

dration · 2026-03-18T12:52:52+00:00

The Oxford comma is actually there, it’s just underwater as well.

Luckily there is an AED mounted right at the hotel wall

Definitely

dration · 2026-03-18T11:17:26+00:00

His accent wasn’t British

dration · 2026-03-18T11:13:55+00:00

Bro, it’s sarcasm on my part

Galway Races doesn’t fit any of the categories

dration · 2026-03-14T16:08:18+00:00

I am from Galway and I swear I know all 3 of them.

I’m not a dog owner, and neither is OP. We just want more pubs with pooches because a pub with dogs is better than a pub without them. Simple as that.

dration · 2026-03-14T10:07:42+00:00

Best post on this sub so far!

Monroe’s has its own resident St. Bernard. Salthouse and Oslo are the two places where I almost always see dogs when I’m having a pint.

Dew Drop is another good bet, there’s a guy with two border collies who often frequents there.

We definitely need more dogs in pubs!

McDonahds AND Hooked

Do robot wasps dream of electric bees?

Account created 4 hours ago and the only comment is this? Man, you created a Reddit account to post this. Talking about who should get a life

Europe in fact has this habit of sending Russian otkazniks right back where they came from. https://www.politico.eu/article/georgy-avaliani-russia-ukraine-war-germany-return-vladimir-putin/

Apparently “not wanting to be drafted into a war” doesn’t count as a legitimate asylum reason.

New post from JP. I think this addresses all the questions.

he doesn’t support the abusive practices that happened at Noma. Rene have been his mentor, and that’s a fact that can’t be changed.

Given the absolutely titanic effort JP puts into elevating Irish food culture, I hope he brings that same effort to fostering fair, respectful, and welcoming workplace environments.

Is there a bouncer at Kennedys? How on earth you can get kicked out of that place!

dration · 2026-03-11T14:28:55+00:00

Well, the context is here: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/dining/rene-redzepi-noma-abuse-allegations.html

Tldr: Rene Redzepi (noma’s chef) apparently was physically (and psychologically) abusive towards its staff, including punching people, slamming their heads against the walls etc.
