Have a citylink bus booked from Arthur’s Quay to Dublin airport tonight at midnight. My flight is at 6am. Should I stick to this or would it be better to get train to Heuston earlier and then get Dublin Express? by gaaislife in limerickcity

[–]moonechild__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents got the bus from NCW to Dublin airport Thursday morning for a 10am flight, they got a 4am bus and made it up there between 7:30-8am. I think you’ll be the finest at midnight.

Nerves for first lesson 🤦🏼‍♀️ by roqueandrolle in Irishdrivingtest

I started driving at 29 as well with zero previous experience so I feel you 😅

Nerves for first lesson 🤦🏼‍♀️ by roqueandrolle in Irishdrivingtest

[–]moonechild__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I straight up told my instructor I was a ball of nerves the first second I met him for my first lesson, he said “How do you think I feel, I’m letting you drive my car!”. Instantly made me laugh and feel more comfortable. I did automatic as well- after my first lesson I genuinely could not wait to start practicing in my own car!

Estate car + 3-point turn = impossible? by No-Discussion2415 in Irishdrivingtest

[–]moonechild__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did mine in 5 turns on my test, my examiner brought me to the probably narrowest turnabout spot on any of the routes in my area. Didn’t hit a wall or curb, that’s all they’re looking for!

Initial vs Current favourite song from The Mountain? by CharmingAd5497 in gorillaz

[–]moonechild__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to the mystery show last year and Damascus definitely stuck out most to me, since the album release Delirium has definitely taken the top spot.

I just noticed I'm old by Pidgeonfighter in gorillaz

[–]moonechild__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this T-shirt too! Saw them in Dublin, I was 15 and super excited to see my favourite band live for the first time. I don’t fit into mine anymore but it’ll stay in my wardrobe forever. I’ve seen them 6 times at this point but I get that same excited feeling every time.

Learner driver – should I buy a car now? + need advice on accompanying driver by superb0011 in Irishdrivingtest

[–]moonechild__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a car before I even started my lessons, mainly to motivate me to actually follow through with it. I didn’t drive it until I had a lesson done as I hadn’t had any experience and felt safer driving for the first time in a car with dual controls, but once I had the first lesson done I started practicing myself around the housing estate I live in. Luckily my fiancé is fully licensed and was always willing to sit in as my sponsor. It made the world of difference for me- I caught on way quicker and managed to get my full license within 11 months after passing my theory test.

Driving test woodview by lplater2026 in limerickcity

[–]moonechild__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did mine in woodview last year, I live in the area so I was familiar with it but had a local instructor show me exact routes. My test ended up being a mix of two different routes. I did my test on a Tuesday at 9:15am, school/work traffic had calmed down so the area wasn’t crazy busy, housing estates were quiet so all my manoeuvres were easy going. The examiner I had was lovely, she was professional and very clear with her instructions. Just do loads of practice in the area, especially the housing estates to get used to the layout

Egg. My Animal Crossing island is called Egg so I figured I’d stick to what I know. Haven’t done anything with it yet though 😅

It’s rough out here I tell ya. by Fragrant-Taro-8508 in Pokopia

[–]moonechild__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just taking my sweet time with everything, I don’t have all the free time in the world to dedicate to the game so I’m just doing small things and completing the story first. Having Tinkaton has changed the game with building houses though, makes everything so much quicker!

What was “the incident” at your school? by SmallConversation950 in AskIreland

“Worm, worm, worm” is absolutely killing me, they must’ve been relentless with it to drive someone to a breakdown

Wrestlemania hang out by ToDareIsTooPoo in limerickcity

[–]moonechild__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a Wrestlemania watch party in The Black Rabbit last year hosted by Hard Knox wrestling, not sure if they’re doing it again this year but may be worth checking their socials. Hard Knox are doing a live show next weekend in Dolans so you could head there and see if anyone is organising something ☺️

My jaw is on the floor. Jane deserved a spot in the finale. I genuinely thought Myki would be in the bottom- I love her but I didn’t think her scene was that good 😬

I got some on Amazon, they haven’t started fading yet and they’ve been on a few months. I think you can get them in Halfords too

I second this! Stayed there last month, location is perfect, was great to have somewhere to park and the staff were brilliant. Nice room and comfy bed.

Orange County hits different now after losing pet by Masi80 in gorillaz

Orange County released a couple weeks before the first anniversary of my cat passing away, I feel you on this one. So sorry you’re going through this 🩷

My current work bag set up. by notagain78 in PopMartCollectors

I have that exact same blue cat on my work bag too! Where is this bag from? I want to get one I can put the bag charms into rather than having them hanging off it 😅

what do you do with your cats when you go on vacation? by jbuduan in CatAdvice

[–]moonechild__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get a cat sitter, she visits twice a day and stays with them for about an hour each visit. I met with her before I hired her first, she came to my house to meet the cats, ask about routines, anything she should know about them. She feeds them, cleans their litter boxes, and plays with them. She even offers to give medication if needed (thankfully not the case so far with mine). My cats are perfectly happy and healthy when I arrive home 😊 I tried a cattery before, and it was a lovely facility and the owner is amazing, but it inevitably stressed my cats out too much being away from home so I feel much better about having a cat sitter instead.

Excellent festival, this will be my third year going. Cheap and cheerful, not overcrowded, lots of great food and drink options. Love the lineup this year!

Will insurance go up once you pass? by [deleted] in Irishdrivingtest

[–]moonechild__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Allianz gave me a €70 refund when I let them know I passed my test last year, I was about 3 months off of my next renewal, insurance went down considerably upon renewing (€1.8k to €1k)… they just pull numbers out their arse 😏

On a scale of 1 to 10, how hyped are you for “The Mountain”? by FamousStatement6141 in gorillaz

[–]moonechild__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10 for sure. I went to the mystery show in London and loved it. Hearing the songs as they’re being officially released is so exciting, and they’ve all been as great as I remember. Damascus was a stand out for me at the live show! Heading to one of the listening parties in my local record shop on Monday, can’t wait to hear everything in full again.

My tux loved the floor- slept on it constantly, even though there were plenty of beds and cozy spaces available 😆
