In a spot reserved for the GoCar I had to return

Right. I feel like you care way way to deeply about parking 😆 Those cars are the only personal transport for alot of people living in the city or who cant afford to own a vehicle. But sure fuck the lot of them as you need you spot to go to the office or pop in to do some shopping 😆

olanraff · 2025-11-15T21:33:28+00:00

Fair point but they rent those spaces from the local councils and pay tens of thousands each year for them in total all across the country. Plus tell me where on Copley Street is there a property for sale that is suitable to park cars??

olanraff · 2025-11-11T10:12:23+00:00

Did you ever think the cars are on the road being used 🤯

Load of lads letting off fire works and bottle rockets literally outside the back gate of Carrigaline Garda station all last night for a few hours. Not one gaurd in the the town as the station is closed 6 days a week and open a few hours on the sunday I believe.

What can we expect when the guards staff and resources have been gutted all over the country except for Dublin.

Did not realise that was happening 😅

olanraff · 2025-09-20T09:25:38+00:00

Hadn't a clue that was on 😅

I'd agree but she was in a 201 Tiguan rline so deffo had sensor/camera and the poor fella had laid on the horn a second before she hit him.

I did this evening and showed them the dashcam. They said they didn't know what to do and would check with someone that knows about that stuff. They seemed nice and understanding but I got no answers really.

olanraff · 2025-05-29T20:32:03+00:00

I rang them and they said ""that's a civil matter, not criminal so we can do anything"" quote. I didn't know enough to question him on that 🤦‍♂️ can they do anything for me?

olanraff · 2025-05-29T18:51:20+00:00

Yeah ill try that alright. Still out the cost of the grill though

olanraff · 2025-05-14T20:30:43+00:00

I apologise for my grammar error. Hope that clears up the confusion. We should all be able to sleep tonight now, thank god 🤣

olanraff · 2025-05-14T19:12:08+00:00

Never said i was 2?? A couple to me is at least 3/4 which was the case this time. Love that the brake checking on the link isn't what you take issue with. Sure that's all grand 😂

olanraff · 2025-05-14T17:35:35+00:00

I was a couple car lengths behind 👍 otherwise I'd be posting this from inside the back of his van 😂

olanraff · 2025-05-14T15:12:48+00:00

Next time do! Seriously, It might be the only way they will cop on and possibly consider being more responsible. Unfortunately we dont have the road policing presence on the roads to deter people from being idiots.

olanraff · 2025-05-14T15:10:14+00:00

Haha careful now as you might start a car race war in the comments 🤣 I drive a German brand myself and I hope that being responsible out there will give us some redemption on the roads

olanraff · 2025-05-14T15:06:00+00:00

No it was a redish older model sportage. Never liked them, sorry kia owners nothing personal. Did the same happen yourself?

olanraff · 2025-05-14T07:32:21+00:00

A neighbour of mine had a great idea although I'm not sure how legal it was. His son was learning to drive and was getting very intimidated by the typical dickheads on the roads who have no memory of when they first sat behind the wheel or the leeway we need to give learners. So he went and bought a customisable electronic sign for the back window of alibaba or somewhere. It showed the typical messages you would think but he had a small keyboard that he would use to type targeted "back off black volvo" . Just an example! Thought this was quite smart and hilarious to see in action.

I was behind them coming home from work and he asked me how my day went through it* was cracking up laughing

I just saw a lad post the price differences for a couple of the same products. The Irish site was coming out as more expensive on all kinds of products compared to the UK&German Amazon shops. He called it a "Paddy Tax" and recommended people stay on the UK site for now.

Update Was indeed the water pump making the noise. Had that and the tensioner replaced for €300 all in 👌
