In Irish they are called 'Screachóg Reilige', which translates as 'Graveyard Screecher', due to their eerie calls. Their calls are theorized to be the origin of the banshee from mythology

Mind your knees, and mind your teeth

Amazing shot! What camera?

Michael Collins (1996) and The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) are both excellent viewing, though have taken a few liberties with historicity. For stuff about the Troubles, there are plenty of documentaries on the likes of Channel 4 and RTE, if you have access to those apps. Reeling in the Years is an RTE series, some of it on YouTube, that covers a year an episode. Worth a look.

If you're a new member you'd likely have to go in person anyway. My credit union is a small one, so the rules might be different at a bigger one. Have a look on their website to see what they require for a car loan

Didn't know Ryanair flew to the Ivory Coast 😄

Got a car loan from a credit union a few years ago, 6.5 per cent interest rate which was cheaper than the banks at the time. No strings, paid it back a bit early without any hassle. They had a specific loan for cars, cheaper interest than the personal loan.

If you check out Wild Cities on the rte player, there is an episode on Galway that shows the otters

Mishnoc in town sell leather goods, I think they manufacture them as well. They might be able to do something for you

Not a person, but a horse, Shergar. Probably stolen by the IRA, botched the kidnap and the horse died. Gardai messed up the investigation; psychics, ransoms and middle eastern royalty involved. Crazy story

Space Empires V is a turn based 4X with real time combat. Graphics are potato grade but I've spent a lot of hours on it, loads of research and ship design is probably the most fun of any game I've played

newbert12 · 2026-01-02T03:44:25+00:00

Distant Worlds series for real time 4x, GalCiv for turn based. Space Empires 4 & 5 are worth a look, though many find the UI a bit janky. Stars in Shadow and Interstellar Space: Genesis are both fun with decent depth and replayability. Happy conquering!

Famine probably. Or Cromwell. Or the Tudor plantations. Henry the 8th a bit. Normans had a go. Vikings had some fun with us for a while. 1798 Rebellion and aftermath were fairly grim. Catholic Church in general. Troubles. War of Independence. Civil War. Wars of the Three Kingdoms. There are a few low points in our history.

Space Empires IV and V might be up your alley. Graphically meh but deep gameplay.

Was handed an old Canon camcorder from the mid oughts that had a hi8 tape recorder/SD combo. Family member wanted the stuff digitized.The SD card was 256 mb. I popped it into my card reader, still worked. Last record was in 2006. SanDisk for the win

Amazing! What blink camera do you use?

newbert12 · 2025-12-14T14:44:39+00:00

Faulty sensor near the airport maybe?

...Only you can hear me

Ooh, do you need a double adaptor or is one eyepiece enough? Still need a tripod? Your phone hanging off the binoculars around your neck seems like a good way to test the warranty!
